The design stage was completed for the 2019 form plaque early last summer. I worked with representatives from the Form of 2019 to come up with a list of events, and the following were chosen by them to represent their 6th Form experiences at SPS:
- Upper left: Shows a shirt with a multi-gender symbol on it, representing the updating of the school dress code to apply equally to all students regardless of gender identity.
- Upper right corner: Shows a rose window, representing the catastrophic fire of Notre Dame cathedral.
- Upper center: Shows the Hugh Camp Cup, with Roman numerals III, IV, V, VI, representing that the cup was won by a member of the Form of 2019 each of their four years.
- Lower left: A football celebrates the 8 – 0 winning season for the football team.
- Lower center: A closed book with the School shield, with a bookmark bearing the initials A C R, represents the service of Amy C. Richards as Interim Rector.
- Lower right: A female symbol stylized into the letter S and C, represents the first time in SPS history that both the President and Vice President of the Student Council were female.
- Lower background: Shows crossed oars from the new rowing tanks that opened during the 2018/2019 school year.
This design has been used to create the wood carving of the 2019 form plaque. I will document the carving process in an upcoming post.
