Valete P. H. Josselyn Mr. Josselyn came from Woolventone Hall School in 1 960 and began what was to be nine years of hard work for the benefit of Shawnigan. In 1961 he was appointed Head of the English De- partment and in 1964 he took over Copeman ' s House for a year, while Mr. Hyde-Lay was on Sabbatical. Then in 1967-68 Mr. Josselyn was ap- pointed Acting Assistant Headmaster. While at the school Mr. Josselyn produced many plays and took part himself in many of the school musical productions. So as we say good-bye we would also like to say thank you and hope that Mr. Josselyn enjoys his new school, Ashbury College. M. A. Nightingale During his nine years at Shawnigan, Mr. Nightingale was always recognizable for his tire- less efforts to get things done. In the classroom he taught History, of which subject he was de- partmental head, and Social Studies. But the C- block was not his only habitat. For a number of years he was Housemaster of Grove ' s House and worked hard at making Grove ' s a better place to live in. Mr. Nightingale was also an extremely successful coach. From the time he arrived at the school until the time he left he was an avid coach and participant in cross-country running and even led one team to an undefeated season. Shawnigan has lost a valuable asset as Mr. Nightingale has moved on to Appleby where he will work under Mr. Larsen. We know he will be a success and hope to see him running in the driveway in the near future. R. W. Joyce Mr. Joyce joined the staff in 1966 and has been a very active member in school activities. He coached in both Rugby and Cricket and in the annual Master ' s Soccer game he was always the star player. While at the school Mr. Joyce directed some dramatic productions, the most suc- cessful being Hamlet . In his final year He took on the extra responsibilities of being the Lonsdale ' s Assistant House Master which added to his many commitments. Mr. Joyce plans to re- turn to England and from there he is not sure of his future but we wish him the best of luck in whatever he does. 10

Salvete J. K. Greenwood Mr. Greenwood was born in Lawkridgeworth, England, and did his later schooling at Shawnigan. From here he went to Trinity College, Cambridge, where he studied mechanical engineering. While at university he managed to play a lot of squash and tennis as well as keep up with the university ' s social life. At Shawnigan Mr. Greenwood has a busy life, for between quick trips around the cam- pus on his motor bike, he manages to coach the tennis team, direct the choir and glee club and take part in school dramatics. Mr. Greenwood plans to return next fall and we hope to see him for many years to come. G. Pitman Mr. Pitman came to Shawnigan during a sab- batical leave from his school in England, both to teach and perhaps learn something of Canadians. Previously he had studied classics and history at Cambridge and had gone on to teach in a French school and also at the University of Bordeaux. With such credentials Mr. Pitman was an obvious choice for the French and History departments, to which he pitted most of his energy. The rest was devoted to coaching, rowing, rugby and music. Having returned to England, Mr. Pitman has sent word that he enjoyed Canada so much that he may return. If he does visit Shawnigan again we hope that he brings some more of his Carnaby Street ties to brighten up the Master ' s Common Room. J. H. Buckley Mr. Buckley was born in Nhill somewhere in the outback of Australia near Melbourne. He went to the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology where he majored in the arts and got his degree. Upon arriving at Shawnigan Mr. Buckley became Copeman ' s assistant house- master and the Head of the Art Club. After less than a term Mr. Buckley was appointed Groves ' Housemaster which then took up a great amount of his time. He did, however, manage to find time to completely change and expand the Art Club into a thriving activity and it is hoped that Mr. Buckley will extend his original plan of a two year stay at Shawnigan.

M. M. McGarry Mr. McGarry joined the staff at Shawnigan in 1966-67 as the new Junior House Master. That summer he married and left the post as House- master and began to get more involved in school activities. For in the short three years in which he was here, Mr. McGarry played a very active role in the working of the school. In the sport field he was a coach for Rugby, Grass Hockey, Tennis and Squash. Outside of sports he reorganized the newspaper, a Grade 12 philosophy cl ub, and was one of the principal backers of the self-directed- learning scheme. It is with regret that we must say good-bye and we would like to wish Mr. Mc- Garry and his family the best of luck in the future. School Staff Back Row: P. Bingley, T. Grant, G. Pitman, R. Joyce, J.
