Dear Friends: This Diamond Jubilee book is an attempt to reflect the growing and thriving spirit of Vancouver College. It is a spirit that dips gently into the past to recall our roots and it is a spirit that glows with expectation for the future. Most of all it is a spirit which fuels our present to continue the insistence on Catholic moral and academic education. Our greatest ally in our quest has been and always will be the parents of the boys who pass through our halls. We live in times that seem to scorn the traditional appreciation for the strength of the family. And the times seem to laugh mockingly at us for daring to stand for love and honour among men. But when the excitement and enthusiasm of youth begins to find its perspective in life, the vision of our youth will be shaped by the lessons of love and honour learned in the family and nurtured in the school. We are proud of our part in articulating this vision in an educational context and we are proud of the confidence the parents have seen fit to extend to us over the years. To all who have been a part of our past we voice a hearty thank you and to you who will join in our future we voice a hearty welcome. Sincerely, Michael A. Maher, C.F.C., M.A. Principal Mr. J. Kavalec, B.A., B.Pe., M.Ed. This year is number fifteen for Mr. Kavalec.
