COMMENCEMENT ANNUAL

By way of varying the usual fun at Christmas a broadcasting station was installed at
Coqualeetza. In some peculiar way Miss Mackay and Mr. Williams got in touch with
Santa who sent numerous messages to the Juniors and Primaries on the 17th and 19th
December.

meeibesrour, Hallowe'en parties and the four Valentine parties all came off very merrily.
The teachers are untiring in their efforts to make these festive occasions a success. Nothing
is too much trouble in the way of decorating. entertaining and preparing the refreshments.

Founder's Day

We were delighted to have the pleasure and honor of a visit from the Rev. C. M. Tate,
the founder of the school. Notwithstanding inclement weather the traditional ceremonials
were adhered to. Flag raising at 8 a.m. Later in the day tree planting by Mr. Tate and
Mr. E. Peake, the latter a member of the staff, about to leave forEngland.
