DEDICATION In grateful acknowledgement of his contribution to Shawnigan Lake School the editors dedicate this year ' s Annual to Mr. Derek W. Hyde-Lay Mr. Derek Hyde-Lay joined the staff at Shawnigan in the fall of 1948, after having travelled to Canada from Britain, where he had received his early schooling at St. Mary ' s Prep School and Oundle College. In his early years he became a housemaster, taught spelling among other things to the lower grades, and began a long and happy partnership with the 1st and 2nd XV ' s, establishing the fine rugby tradition we now have at Shawnigan. In 1952, he left for Switzerland, where he studied at the Swiss Federal School of Sports and Gymnastics, before returning to the school in 1954. He continued to teach, but was most active in coaching rugby, track, hockey, tennis, cricket, and basketball, as well as directing the P.T. classes. In 1955, he met Miss Mary Strachan, whom he married, and who will be remembered as a housemother to many and also as a school nurse. In 1960, he became housemaster of Copemans, a position he held until the end of this year, where he finally stepped down after fifteen, and by his own admission, enjoyable years. Outside the Common Room he took part in many musicals, either in a major role or in the chorus, sang in the choir, played in the school big band, and took part in many staff sketches. Following a most difficult five year period suffered by all schools in North America, with the enrollment dropping due to rapid change in manners and morals, Derek became the Director of Admissions. In these three short years the school ' s population has returned to its former strength, indicating his many hours of hard work in this direction. Whatever his position at school has been, whether as a housemaster of Lakes under our founder Mr. C.W. Lonsdale, or as housemaster of Copemans, or as Director of Athletics, or as Director of Admission, Derek always has put the school above all else, devoting himself to its welfare and growth, with his versatility, willingness, enthusiasm, and dedication. We presently at the school, and everyone concerned with it, owe Derek Hyde-Lay a deep debt of gratitude for all he has done. May the upcoming years be as happy and successful as those past for him and his family.
