Notes


A history of Notre Dame College at Wilcox, Saskatchewan, from its establishment in 1920 through its development as a Catholic residential school serving students from across the Prairie provinces and beyond. Drawing on school records, photographs, alumni recollections, and archival material, Henderson traces the growth of the institution, its academic, religious, and athletic programmes, and the contributions of the Sisters of Charity of St. Louis and Father Athol Murray. The volume also examines student life, traditions, and the expansion of the campus over successive decades.
