Head Girl Trafalgar Castle School is a community and each person within its walls a citizen. During the past year we have all worked, played, studied and loved together. We have grown from the impersonality of a community and formed an intimate family atmosphere. Together we share everything from meals to study notes. Now some of us have to leave and pursue other paths. I wish you luck, but have faith in you, since, with your excellent Trafalgar background, you can ' t go wrong. For those who stay, I also wish you luck. Continue with the spirit of love shown this year and the world will be at your feet. Thank you for all your support. You have been fantastic. I ' d like to say a special thanks to the Prefects. They have worked as a unit and have been a credit to their school. Good-bye, good luck and love, always, Laurie Mitchell Prefects Melanie Silvera Anu Mehta Day Girl Prefect Day Girl Prefect Grade 7 and 8 Grade 12 Day Girl Prefect Head Girl Grade 10 and 11 Grade 9 Kim Berglund Mercedes Milbourne Muffie Bovell Laurie Mitchell Sharon Eckert Frances Bayley Mr. Kamcke

Mrs. Lamb Retires Mrs. May Lamb our Bursar and Business Administrator from 1959-1982 retired this year. We hope that she will continue to play an active part in the life of Trafalgar for many years to come. Wanted said the paper, a bursar for school, Must be clever with money, handle cash that ' s real cool. This space is open we ' re all sad to say, ' Cause a lady is leaving, one dear Lamb named May. In the time that we ' ve known her she ' s so much to do, From post office to banking, her jobs are not few. Managing all of that money, finances she o ' ersees She ' ll advance a small loan and charge no usury, Find funds for an outing or a new fangled machine, An account juggling act like you ' ve never seen. Book lists, a stapler, a pen and scotch tape, where are they? Have you stole them? Don ' t worry, I ' ll wait. When out of her office there ' s more to her powers She ' s tending to fish tank, foliage and flowers. Feeding those guppies and watering plants, Picking up cookies, always wary of ants. Her interests don ' t lie just inside of our school For with gardener Bill she has made it a rule to keep all our grounds in special green order and produce for Trafalgar some spectacular borders. Her athletic powers, her great tennis game, may never bring May recognition or fame, but a wreath of green laurel she ' ll wear, and it fits, as the single staff member who ' s mastered the splits. The walls of this castle could not hold our May She ' s wandered the globe to lands far away. Pausing briefly at Delphi, the Greek men she wowed, In a nightie so naughty - it should not be allowed. And then on to Corinth, from Athens to Rome Barbados, Madrid, but May always came home, To her friends and her family so dear to her heart. From cats and from violets she couldn ' t long part. This marks not the end but a brand-new beginning And from all of us here our best wishes she ' s winning For happiness, adventure, good health with her man March may come in like a lion, but it leaves with May Lamb.

Faculty 34 One of the reasons our school is unique is the special relationship between the teachers and the student body. Each year the faculty meets the students on the basketball court, a friendly game they say! The picture above must be the ' before ' shot. Mr. McClure teaches instrumental music but only wears the kilt and headdress on ' dress up ' days. Someone better tell him about that jewellery! Miss Anderson, in the gym, waiting for someone to come down on the trampoline. The staff room may not be the most luxurious but the atmosphere is relaxed as you can see from the smiles on the faces of Mrs. Bagnall and Miss Collins. And to the right is Mr. Shelson who abandoned us after Easter but has promised to return in September. He has been sorely missed by his home form, the grade 11 ' s. Mrs. Sigsworth took over for Mrs. Balgopal after Christmas and has kept on smiling.
