Efficacious Efforts Although on a smaller scale, the Grammer School Graduates have the same sense of elation as their senior counterparts over a job well done. Having fin- ished the first half of their career successfully they can now look forward to an even more eventful but demanding high school voyage. Looking forward to those exciting new subjects math- ematics, english, science, language and religion, they feel excited but confident in invading the higher hills of education. What they ultimately accomplish depends upon the diligence and dexterity with which each in- dividual applies himself to the pursuit. Graduation can be compared to the fording of a stream, with all the pitfalls and rapids, swirls and snags for the unwary. This year’s Grammar School Graduates have crossed the first half proudly. They can now stand on the platform with their consumation de- votely to be wished” achieved.

GRAMMAR SCHOOL (cont.) GRADE SEVEN THE FORWARD LOOK Smiling faces and happy hearts are first impressions given by this year’s Grade 7 class. C. Hicks led the class with a 90% average. Activity-wise, the class was among the leaders in the sale of Carnival tickets, advertisements, and mission collections. Three class news- papers flourished, with the best monthly edition chosen as the Grade 7 Class Paper.
