Note
Editors
Being the editor of the yearbook
this year has been a great
experience and there are so many
people I would like to thank. First
and foremost, to the Samara team
thank you so much for all you
tireless hard work, this yearbook
would not have been possible
without each and every one of you.
A
very big thank you goes to Ms.
Bartlett for being a constant source
of guidance and support over the
entire year, thank you for pulling
me back from the brink of stress overload. On a more personal note, I
would like to thank all of the teachers who are leaving or retiring, you
have all taught me so much. Thank you to my parents for waiting for me
after school every Monday while I tied up loose ends in yearbook
meetings, I really do appreciate it. Last but certainly not least, I need to
thank my friends for one of the best years I have ever had at Elmwood. I
will miss the couple of you who are leaving terribly and hope that you use
this yearbook as way to remember all of the fun times we've had together.
Also good luck to all of the grads on what I am sure will be some
amazingly bright futures and seeing as this is your last Elmwood
yearbook I hope that it is everything you would wish for. However my
biggest hope for this yearbook by far, is that everyone who reads it is
reminded of times they look back upon fondly and that it brings a smile to
each and every one of your faces.

Elmwood has a phenomenal tradition: one that
extends far beyond the walls ofour classrooms.
Middle and senior girls travel to the beautiful Camp
Kandalore on the shores ofKabakwa Lake. For three
days we celebrate Camp Elmwood, a relaxed,
amusing experience among the gigantic pines and
rocky landscape ofthe Algonquin Highlands. Being
tossed up into the air on the Inuit Blanket, games of
rugby, mountain biking, canoeing, ropes courses,
rock climbing and ofcourse house spirit activities
keep us busy to the point ofexhilarating exhaustion.
The most ridiculously comical and popular event is
the water regatta! As head girl I was especially proud
ofhow both new and returning students bonded,
threw themselves into house competitions, took on
challenging experiences and supported each other.
The evenings around the camp fire have always been
my favourite and this year the weather cooperated
with not only stunning days, but ideal nights as well.
For those returning next year enjoy; Camp Elmwood
will always remain a favourite for me!
Emmie Page, Head Girl, 2012-2013
