Editorial
During the past year many memorable events have taken place both within the confines of Greenhill and in the world as a whole. We at Greenhill have been required to re-adjust our thinking in many ways because of the great changes which our school has undergone. We have welcomed a new Headmaster into our midst and we have also welcomed many new members of staff - a new leader and a fresh approach.
The world in which we live is a constant challenge for we are continually faced with different experiences and with momentous events which necessitate a radical change in our thinking. I am sure it is most important for each one of us to accept the fact that, whether we like it or not, we are to become the citizens and perhaps the leaders of the next generation. It is up to each one of us to face the responsibilities which we must all, sooner or later, adopt. Thus it is important that each one takes an active interest in the changes which are going on around us and prepares to face the exciting challenge which they present.
Some of these responsibilities are found in the school. Here it is vital for the sake of the spirit of the school that each Greenhillian takes a full and active part. There is endless scope for service in a school, especially in the more senior forms, but whatever one's age the fact remains that the more loyalty and service one gives the better and more enjoyable school life becomes. Service to one's school provides the best equipment for the fuller service which will be expected of us in the ever-expanding world which lies ahead.
Finally, I should like to thank all those talented Greenhillians who gave their time to help to make the 'Greenhillian' what it is and I would urge those who did not respond to the appeal for material to be a little more adventurous next time and make the 'Greenhillian' what it should be.
