STRATHCONA-TWEEDSMUIR SCHOOL
Okotoks, Alberta
1990-1991
HEADMASTER'S MESSAGE
This edition of Paidia is a special one as it celebrates the twentieth
anniversary of Strathcona-Tweedsmuir School. It presents some reflec-
tions on the first two decades of our development and the highlights
of this present school year.
Looking back to Opening Day on September 1 8th, 1971, we realize
just how much has happened to the School in twenty years. When Dr.
J. W. Grant MacEwan, the Lieutenant-Governor of the time, officially
opened Strathcona-Tweedsmuir, we had 295 students, twenty-four teach-
ers and five administrative and maintenance staff. This year our enrol-
ment was 542 students with forty-seven teachers and eleven support staff.
Although the School has grown in size, it has maintained small class
size and a low teacher-student ratio. The program has evolved to be-
come the means of providing many different opportunities for students
to learn and to develop in academic courses, physical and outdoor ed-
ucation, fine arts and many other enriching experiences. In twenty years
701 students have graduated and most have gone to universities of their
choice in Canada, U.S.A. and elsewhere.
Our accomplishments have been made possible because of the con-
tinued support S.T.S. has received from families, teachers, benefactors,
governors and alumni. In celebrating our twentieth birthday, we rec-
ognize the vision, hard work and commitment of the many people who
have made the School what it is today and those who still work to en-
sure a promising future for a unique school community.
Paidia '91 will stir many memories of the past and the more recent
events of a busy and fulfilling twentieth year. I congratulate the editor-
ial team, Angela Chuy, Karen Neuss and their helpers, our archive vol-
unteers, Mrs. Stuart, Mrs. Dingwall and Mrs. Mitchell, and staff advisors
Mr. Taylor and Mr. McConnell, on an impressive yearbook.
Peter B. Ditchburn,
Headmaster
THE LATE
J.B. CROSS
The campus of Strathcona-Tweedsmuir School was a gift of Mr. James Braehead Cross and his
family in 1970-71
Mr. Cross died in February, 1990, and we honour him by dedicating this issue of PAIDIA to his
memory.

TIMES PAST
ST. HILDA'S SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
School Crest: BEATI MUNDO CORDE
(Blessed are the Pure in Heart).
St. Hilda's College opened its doors in
1905 to 20 day girls and 20 boarders. In
1924 the School was renamed "St. Hilda's
School" and by 1930 had 130 students in
attendance. The School closed in 1949.
STRATHCONA SCHOOL FOR BOYS
This School was opened in the Fall of
1929 with eight small boys but within a
few months the attendance had grown to
1 5. By 1 938 the School had outgrown the
various homes it had occupied and was
moved to Riverdale Avenue SW.
TWEEDSMUIR GIRLS SCHOOL
School Crest: NIL NISI OPTIMUM (Nothing
but the Best)
The establishment of this School in 1959
was the result of the desire of many peo-
ple, some of whom had themselves at-
tended St. Hilda's for a private girls' school.
STRATHCONA-TWEEDSMUIR SCHOOL
The amalgamation of the history of the
above three schools resulted in Strathcona-
Tweedsmuir School as we know it today.
The official opening of the School was on
September 18th, 1971.
Top Right: The Honourable Dr. J.W. Grant MacEwan, Lieutenant Governor

All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by
night in the dusty resources of their minds wake in the
day to find that it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day
are dangerous men for they may act out their dreams with
open eyes to make it possible.

ANGELA CHUY
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may.
Old time is stilla-flying;
And this same flower that smiles
today
Tomorrow will be dying.
- Robert Herrick
The Lord Is my shepherd,
I shall not want,
fie makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death,
I fear no evil; for Thou art with me;
Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my
enemies;
Thou hast anointed my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and loving kindness will follow me all
the days of my life.
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

My grandparents were born at the end of the Great
War
and never knew of it
but they lived through Hitler and Mussolini and the
Bomb
and came to know war
My parents were born at the end of the Second
World War
and never knew of it
but they lived through Ho Chi Minh, Nixon and
Agent Orange
and came to know war
I was born at the end of the Vietnam War
and never knew of it
but I have lived through Iran, Gorbachev and South
Africa
and have evolved a sense of war
Noriega was jailed and the Iron Curtain rose
the hope of Peace in our Time
seemed to be a reality
and the world appeared to be recovering from its hin-
drances
But an ominus, looming shadow has appeared
The horizon is dusky and stained with experience
A crescendo of tension is building
and I fear I will know war yet.
2703 by Katy Stewart
There are tiny footprints in the floor
and handprints on the glass
With childish artwork on the shelves
showing a colorful shapeless mass
There are seventeen stairs from the kitchen
to my bed
and five cracks in the ceiling up
above my head
The front is rather white with just a
touch of brown
We moved when I was just a
bump from only three blocks down
I never want to lose it because I know
that when we do
It's not just the walls around me, it's my
childhood too.

A SNOWY WINTER'S DAY
A blowing wind,
A flickering light,
A roaring fire,
Shining bright.
A heavy blanket,
Tightly gripped.
A cup of hot tea,
Slowly sipped.
A cold winter's day,
A fire's glow.
Outside the window
A blanket of snow.
The gentle flakes
Fall from the sky
As I sit dreaming
Of july.
A mug of tea
Is finished slow;
Then a cup of hot cocoa.
Chattering teeth
Begin to slow,
A warmth surrounds
And starts to flow.
Hands being warmed,
By a heated mug,
Another cup poured
From a jug.
A quiet hum
Of flickering flames
Upon a snowy
Winter's
Day.
(Mira Sirkis won the
junior High Poetry
Contest 1990-1991.)
SUMMER STORM
As the monstrous clouds roll in
And terror fills the town
All the animals are rushing
Hoping nature will not win.
Streaks of lightning fill the sky
Followed by a Crash! Boom! Bang!
The thunder like an Indian drum
Frightens not only I.
The rain hammers down
Bucket after bucket.
Never stopping, never ending.
The puddles - oh, so brown!
But wait; the clouds do part.
The sun peeking through
Steam rising from the ground
Calming my pounding heart.
Now peace returns to the earth.
Flowers and trees are happy.
The good smell of a past storm
Signals nature to begin re-birth.
(Alison Wammell was runner-up
in the junior High Poetry contest.)
9b
There was a young girl in a canoe
Whose legs began to turn blue.
It was not a reaction
To rose bushes scratching
She was cold 'cause her clothes were too few!
Three girls were so keen to be on
The river, they packed before dawn.
Some others slept late,
Like the triumvirate -
The Birder, the Baker, and lohnson.

CRUSTY CRAB
by Saare Adams and Rajen Ruparell Grade 2
Once upon a time there was a crab, and his name was Crusty
the Crab. And one morning he was having his morning walk.
And he bumped into Oliver the Octopus. "Hi, Oliver, do you
want to play?" And he said "Yes. " So they played tag for two
hours. And then Rajen the Rat fell off a ship and drowned.
And Oliver saw him and brung him up to shore and they had
a big celebration. The end.

SAM THE SEAHORSE
by Ian Dahlman and Eric Peng Grade 2
Once there was a seahorse named Sam. His brother was
named Fred the Fish. They lived in a sunken ship. One day
Fred said, "Let's go to the fish ground." And Sam said, "Sure."
Chapter 2: OFF TO THE FISH GROUND
They went down the sea slide, and went on the sea swing,
and on the sea horse ride. Then they went home and had sup-
per. They had seaweed noodles and crab corn.
Chapter 3: WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY?
At supper their mother and father said, "What did you do
today?" And Sam said, We went to the fish park. It was fun!
We went down sea slide, the sea swing and the sea horse ride."
Chapter 4: TIME TO PLAY WITH OUR FRIENDS
After supper they played with their friends, Polly the Por-
poise and Diffy the Dolphin. Then Polly said, "Let's play tag, "
and everyone said, "O.K." And they played tag.
Chapter 5: TIME TO HAVE A BATH AND SLEEP
After they took a bath and slept with their stuff and people.

ALONE
They sat there abandoned,
with nothing to do,
abandoned with nothing to say.
theTr couldn't move,
nor could they speak,
they were as deaf as a washed away pebble,
at the bottom of the ocean,
enable to progress,
they slouched there all deserted, they...
were dead!

Queens, Western, McCill & McMaster, were
visited. A group of 1 1 students graced such
favorites as U of Vic. U.BC. & S.F.U. Extra

Grade Science Camp
\\ Kananaskis Environmental Research Centre our grade
sevens spont a week learning about the intricate relation-
ships among the structure of the underlying geology, the
kind of soil, the slope of the land, the sun, air, plants,
insects, moisture, and animals. Here are some photos of
our budding scientists. "Hey, Tuna, are there any bugs

Every year it is traditional that the Elementary Staff dress
in outrageous Hallowe'en outfits and parade through the
high school rooms. Their students usually come along
for the fun and to protect innocent young things, like Mrs.
Owens, from assault and battery by people like "Every
year we do this badly" Hay. You can see Quasimodo
Bain above, innocent Mrs. O. (she prefers "wholesome"),
and some other sinister characters. What's the significance
of the bottom photo? Are these the remains of a primitive
pumpkin sacrificial ritual by the Prefects?

The Mountain Bike Race was another successful event
that the Prefects arranged for both Junior and Senior
High. Grueling work under the hot sun did not keep
participants from enjoying themselves. Mr. Keller
caught the top sequence of Cameron Fulton rounding
a curve in the woods. Lower photos include Pete Yates
perspiring up a steep hill, Eric Hyndman's happy-go-
lucky smile, and Emeline and Alissa comparing hel-
met fashions.

Outdoor Lovers
We found so many ways to en-
joy the outdoors. Here Clint
uses his mega-body to block our
view of some of the Outdoor
Education Class. We can make
out Rob Scott, Roxanne Elenko,
Mr. Preston, Kathleen Cronin,
and others will have to be mad
at the editor!
Erin Thompson seems to be
happy at the end of a line of
happy hikers. There's no life
like it!
Andrew Kirker, in a rare visit to
the school(!), and Brenda Var-
nam watch the desperate antics
of teammates in a round of out-
door "Westwind" volleyball.
The cosmopolitan atmosphere of STS is revealed here as
Izumi Kodama from Japan shares some time in the Livres
Francais section of our library with German Andrea Lindel.
Meanwhile Mayumi Yamaguchi, also from Japan, helps
Grade 1 's to make Christmas stockings. I wonder what Itako
was doing? Possibly playing cowboy with Rhiannon's horse,
Willie!
With her face obscured by flying hair, another
STS-er learns the fine art of skiing the scree
slope. An unidentified threesome enjoy a fine
day in the mountains.

To put this in perspective, imagine having five children grow up to be Nobel Prize winners.
To ensure a place on this list, a car must stand for craftmanship and reliability. But, more importantly, it should make the hair stand on the back of
neck. Which might explain why five cars from the Nissan family are represented here. After all, we've always believed a car should be much
your
more than a form of transportation. It should be a form of pure inspiration.
