GRAMMAR SCHOOL (cont.) IN A PILE of autumn leaves accumulated on the school grounds, Robert Hogg, Robert Mackin, Wayne Giroday, and David Field stage a mock battle GRADE THREE Grammar school sure shooters Signifying the hard work done by the Brothers to set the boys out on the straight and narrow path, is this class, Grade 3. Under the guid- ance of Br. Bucher, Grade three has excelled in their studies, as shown by outstanding students. Dennis McDonald, Peter Graham, and Stuart Grant. Excellence in sports has been exemplified by their ardent participation in the inter-grammar school basketball league. Activity-wise the 46 classers collected the most money for the Irish Christian Brothers Auxiliary Drive in the entire grammar and high school classes. VARIED EXPRESSIONS GREET BR.

GRADE TWO The well balanced Class In Grade two we find students who have had one year of studies in V.C. to their credit. A few of the boys have already began to take an interest in the various sports. During the fall, several learned the feel of a football, but when winter came, they changed their recess to the gym, engaging in such sports as basketball, tumbling, and boxing. Softball was played in the spring with the other Grammar school grades. The main activities included choral singing, which everyone enjoyed immensely at the Christmas concert. AS HE ADDS UP the total, John Grossmith wonders how much Grade Two has contributed to the Foreign Missions during the week; results were good. (CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE) 1 1

G. EWONUS AND T. DESCHNER GET EDUCATED FROM OWN LIBRARY GRADE FOUR 1957 ' s VARIETY CLASS Due to the unfortunate illness of Brother Flaherty at the beginning of the school year, Grade Four has had the unique experience of being taught by no less than five Brothers. Brother Gerardo took over the class about the middle of February and all the boys in Grade four say he’s the most.” In sports, they had a very good basketball team which practiced every afternoon. Grade Four sup- ported all school activities fully, giving most generously to the missions, attending games, and exceeding their quota on the sale of tickets. They were the first class in V.C. history to build up their own library. With the able assistance of Br. Flunt, school librarian, the boys brought their own books to school and conducted their own library on the same system as the school library. They were good students, good sports, and had good school spirit. What more do you want? SPRING IS SPRUNG! John Trace and Henry Mackin take the ir softball equipment out of winter storage in preparation for the oncoming season. GRADE 4. (Top row, 1. to r.): G. Thorn, L. Gunn, A. Sanderson, P.
