"CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, Oct. 5, 1967 Four Coast Students Are Visiting. at SHSS Here By ARNOLD MARTIN Staff Reporter The Centennial students from Vancouver and district who vis- ited SHSS last week ‘are’ not members of the honor soclety. But they are extremely bright students — the sort that inject a note of le in the well-worn phrase, “the oe eae of tomor- rows world.” I interviewed: the four vis- itors this week and some of thelr, the reactions were 4! g! ult, very much up-to-date and indicative of a genuine interest in ning now the community of which they will be a part in the future — the not-too-distant future.

This is not so here, ” “They tend to be more themselves at’ school than do students here,” Terry noted. School spirit and enthusiasm for all forms of extra cular activity was greater at SHSS than she had ever seen. “At home, there is a pro- blem getting “enough students together for an athletic team— hockey, basketball — here it seems to be a problem to cut GKRD and WKRD Urge Gov't. to Map Area for Parksite how many students Central and West, classes,” he said. “It separates the serious stu- dents from those who don’t real- Cartney of Argyle Secondary | School Min North Saran N and David Allin of Burn: forth Secondary, commented vehat “it was something of a surprise to come from 4 large city with a y Continues to 40" Discount Paint Sale Oglow Bros.
