The exercises of this evening mark the completion of the 12m session in the history of Parkdale School, and it is my duty and priv- liege to present to you a brief re- port of the activities of this school for the year 1948-49. This present session began on Tuesday, September 7th of last year end terminates today. The school was in session 194% days as compared with 196 in 1947- d8 To those who were enrolling on Sept. 7th, this day of the closing exercises seemed a far distant date. But today as we look back it prob- ably seems a short time ago. When enrolment was complete, 182 boys and girls had signified their inten- tion to devote the succeeding ten months to hard study. One year ago I reported an en- rolment of 141. There has thus been en increase of 41 pupils in atten- dance. Of those enrolled 88 were saws-m...“ J ..l 4v- the Canadian National Exhibition dents. The girls are: fourth. Joan Rogerson, iandance was 87. This gives evi- dence to the interest taken by the Dflrcnts in the educzitinvz of their children. I may say. in passing, ma?» fill-i year 28 pupils have won certificates for perfect attendance. Distribution o pupils was as fol- lo\vs: In Miss Fraser's Department there were 33 enrolled; ' McCues Department, It’); i-Yvnos Department 30; llaslams Department 23; in Miss Auld's_ Department 32; and in the Principal's 29, of whom six are writing the "Matriculation Exam- ination" to Prince of Wales College. Eight pupils have passed the Grade 8 examinations. Parkdale district has grown so rapidly that the school was not large enough to accommodate all of the children in the district; so that a wing. consisting of four rooms, was added. Through the wonderful co-operation and energy. in a very special community effort. has this been accomplished. This is a very noteworthy example of com- munity effort. in Mrs. Miss At the request of Kate Altkcn. the mural shown above was undertaken by a group of P.W.C. stu- Beather Lantz, Joyce Proctor, Bra Murphy.

Among those taking port were: His Honor LieuL-Governor J. A. Bernard; Dr. L. \V_ Shaw; Dr. J. W. MacMii- Ian; Messrs. Lester Douglas, M. 1.. A.; D. L. Matheson. M. L.

The boys and girls of Parkdole School are to he commended for their cxcellent enthusiasm and co- operation in this very important work.

We had a number of visits from members of our “School Board." Their kindly interest evidenced by their words of encouragement did much to lighten our work. We are pleased to re- ceive them at any time. We again extend an invitation to parents to visit the school fre- quently for, in this way, you will learn much about your child's posi- tion in the school by the inspection and comparison of the work com- pleied by all pupils. We desire to remind parents that their children receive home work and assignments each day, some- thing to do as well as learn, and it is the duty and the responsibility of parents to see that those assign- ments are methodically completed in the home each evening, 0f course the child must have the enthusiasm to study. You cannot make students of young people who have no enthusiasm to study. Routine work as prescribed by the course of studies was well car- ried on this year, In addition to this, the radio was used to good advantage. Junior Red Cross activities have been carried on in all departments. We have had a very successful year. The large number of certifi- cates and diplomas, being presented today is an outward sign of su<> cess. This year in lieu of prizes, it has been decided to give Diplomas to those who have attained a high percentage in their grading tests. I may say this is a new venture and it is one that, 1 think, is working out reasonably well. Several, who were only a few marks short of the ‘otal required for the diplomas, have stated that they are going to work harder next year and are going to receive a diploma. This is only a beginning but, if it will create enthusiasm among pupils, then, I say, a step has been taken in the proper di- rection. The pupils of Parkdale are to be commended for their excellent per- formances in the various entries at the Musical Festival last May. They are the proud winners of two scholarships of $25 each. Mr. Roy Mugford is to be congratulated for the excellent job he has done in training those pupils. The school activities include our picnic which takes place tomorrow, the Christmas concert which was held last September, and the two socials which were held during the year. As Parkdale is now a part of the new school board administering school unit, which calls for a full time secretary, we were sorry‘ to hear that Mr. Burns has resigned as secretary. l-ie has capahly filled that position ever since Parkdale School was built in 1931. The re- cord of his work is one of faithful- ness and efficiency. i-ls is a man of mettle, of force and attractive personality, a man who met hie tasks with loyalty and persistence and one who was a great friend of all the teachers who taught in Parkdale School. He is especially interested in education and has done much for the improvement of Parkdale School. The new secretary, Mr. Gordon Rice, is one who knows that educa- tion can not advance to any appreci- able degree until teachers ere re- spected and freedjrom the en- tenglemente of petty dusrrele. He understands that the teacher must be freed to function ee a fully fledged citizen and be able to ex- ercise unfettered discretion in hie professional life end hie life out of school. He ie one who has el- waye worked for the teachers and we knew he will work faithfully end efficiently for every- school die- trict In the unit. We wieh him success in his new work. On behalf of the teachers of Perkdsla School, we wish to express CIEARS CiOGGtD V ‘ DRAW‘ our appreciation to the Women's Institute who through the regular visits of their committees have at- tended so well to the needs of the school; and who have donated prizes for the "sports" which will bs held tomorrow. i The pupils and teachers also ex- tend their sincere thanks to the trustees and ratepayers who have provided the diplomas and certifi- cates. We extend our sincere thanks to Rev. Father MacTague and to Col. D. A. MacKinnon, who have donat- ed money to be used in prizes for those who pass the matriculation examinations to P. W. C. _ To the Board of Trustees and particularly Mr. Burns, secretary of trustees. we offer our sincere thanks for their much appreciated co-operatlon. To the diploma and certificate winners and to all who worked conscientiously and well, we offer congratulations with the hope that their success may stimulate others to greater efforts in the future. To those who have not made the grade, may I say, persevere, because in so doing you shall reach the goal. Never let a difficulty stop you; it may be only sand on your track to keep you from skidding. To those who shall not return next September, we bid you a kind- ly farewell. We ask you to take away with you the ideals of hon- eety, integrity, the essentials in life and let us ever remember that Democracy works only when citi- zens get along together, when neighbours on the street and chil- dren on the playground and men and women on the joh, have n friendly respect for each other re- gardiess of their color, their re- ligion, or their birthplace. It takes Canadians of all religions, all an- cestries. all races to keep our democracy ticking, I wish to thank the parents in general who have so well maintain- ed their interest in, and support ot the many phases of our school work. To this I might add a per- sonal word of appreciation to the teachers for the faithful discharge of their duties. We have n splen- did staff, teachers who are doing a good job and who are highly es- teemed by their pupils. In conclusion we desire to extend to each and every pupil, and to all the teachers who have assisted me so well during the past year, our best wishes for a pleasant well mm, _ JULYdf. 1m »» NUXZEMA suns ram INSTANTLY I l‘ l‘ f snowy-white Nox- Doesn't stein fZf.Z."ii§.‘i.;i s. your i... eun- clothes bumed skin.
