We are very grateful to Miss Lilley and also to the Old Girls. In conclusion, we should like to thank all who have helped and guided us throughout the year, and to the teach- ing staff, and one and all, we jo in in wishing a very Happy Christmas and a bright and prosperous New Year .

The beginning of the season was heralded by our match with the Old Girls. The Old Girls won the A Grade and Present girls the B and C Grades. In interschool matches the B Grade were victorious in every match in their zone and went on to win the premier- ship from Clayfield College. Competition was very keen in the A Grade, the premier- ship going this year to Somerville House . Everyone was thrilled when Ann and Nancy defeated the Wilson Cup girls , Fay Muller and Mary Schultz , when they visited the school. We wou ld like to thank Mr. Moon fo r his interest an::! invaluable coaching during the season. It was decided this year to have a Mothers versus Daughters match on Parents' Day.
