ST. MARY'S SCHOOL, CALNE NEWS SHEET NUMBER 55
OCTOBER 1970
EDITORIAL This year has been marked by the Old Girls' Reunion in May being held at the school, during the Junior Half-Term, while the upper forms were here. A great many Old Girls were able to come, and the school was very glad to meet many of its former members. We were most fortunate in having good weather, and the traditional tennis tournament was very popular. It was a week-end that was enjoyed by everyone, and we should like to thank all those who made it such a memorable and happy occasion. There have been no spectacular changes during the year, though the style of our uniform has been slightly altered. The life of the school has gone on as usual, with examinations, coming, as they so often do, in lovely summer weather. However, we have enjoyed other activities, which, owing to our having been remarkably free from epidemics, have been many and various, such as a picnic, on the Downs for the whole school on Ascension Day, a visit to Wimbledon by the Sixth Forms, and parties to Bath and Salisbury for concerts and plays. It was sad to say farewell to Canon O'Hanlon in November, for he had been Vicar of Calne for eighteen years. He has now moved to his new parish of Coombe Bissett, near Salisbury. Canon Witcomb, whom we were pleased to welcome, took the Founders' Day service this year. KATHARINE ROSKILL
