Excerpt from Vox Fluminis, 1931 To' return to the story of our building; and a short story it is. When I left in June it was only a large hole in the ground. When I came back in August I saw a green roof showing above the trees and wondered as I drove up from the station what it was. As I frightened the workmen by climbing up the ladders to watch its progress, however, I never dreamed that we should really move in when school opened in the second week in September. Yet the first day of school we had prayers in our new assembly hall and used our new classrooms. How lovely these classrooms looking. Over our river have been, only those who use them every day can know; and the gymnasium can really only be appreciated by those who trudged in the wet last year. How proud I was of it and of you at our concerts and at the Rupert's Ifand basketball matches! One sad change has taken place. The death of Lady Aikins widow of our founder, has grieved us all. But let us be glad that we have the memory of her gracious presence at our first school closing, when she presented our prizes in June.
