School Tradition

| ae is that which is neither law nor regulation, but the persuasive influence
of the high ideals of the school, handed down unconsciously by outgoing to incom-
ing students, to be imitated and passed on in turn. No school can be great without
tradition—and no great school, or school with any pretence to worth or merit, can be
without tradition. Some of the traditions Coqualeetzans have striven to weave into the
fabric of the school are:

Reverence for God’s Word and all sacred institutions.
Loyalty to Canada, the Empire and the King.

“Play the Game,” in classroom, playground and home.
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
“Love Duty.”

All necessary work is honourable.

Honour our Highdays and Holidays with the observation of all the beautiful,
time-worn customs.

School Spirit

Miss E. MacKay, B.A., Lady Principal

HROUGHOUT the Coqualeetza school year many things must operate to draw the
members of the student body together. This year the games and sports, the fun and
frolic have been shared by all.

The Academic and Vocational work of the different departments, if not the same,
have been done under the same conditions. All inherit the school traditions. The same
ideals of life, the Academic and Vocational guidance and preparation are placed before
each student. In short, they foster the school health, or better still, the school spirit. This
year the school spirit manifested itself not only in the hour of victory on the public
occasion of winning the Olympiad Shield, but let us hope it manifested itself moxe
potently in the tedious hours of study and in the work of the day, for these hours of
study, these hours of work in Coqualeetza should be steps toward a particular trade or
a particular profession.

In this 20th Century one must be fully equipped. Your school is a place
of opportunity and we know from previous.records and present ones that many students
have realized it. The fact that much was expected of them, put them on their mettle.
called forth that unselfish, intangible thing called “school spirit,” which should be the
stimulus to high endeavor.
