A plus tard. ~ Victoria ~ Crewe-Nelson OBITUAIRIS TRAFALGA R CASTLE Another school year is racing towards its end. For the younger Trafalgarites, this means a two-month respite from studies before the educational cycle starts again. For the graduates, though, those coming weeks mark the last we'1l be spending at the castle. For some, the short period betwecn now and graduation will be spent packing te blave a school that bas become a home for many girls. As a new-girl, Ill ho saying good-bye te the friends and familiar sights that have affected me for a year. But there are others who will be leaving an environinent that bas nurtured them for five, six, even seven years. Right now, ail the graduates are feeling both trepidation and hope. On June 19, we'll leave the familiar gates of the school for wbat may be the last tirne. What lies abead of us is a fog-shrouded mystery. Whether trovel, work or higher education av. aits us, the future stili seoins se uncertain, and the comfort of Trafolgar se, appealing.
