Grads of 2010

We've been neglecting the concert photos for a while - in fact, we've been neglecting this blog for a while... While there should never be excuses, we have good reason. We've been busy trying to enjoy, survive and get through our last weeks as high school students. While it has been exciting, overwhelming and a little confusing at times, we made it to our Graduation Ceremony. Here are a few photos from the night.


Clear skies and beautiful weather made photo-taking possible!


After five years of passing "Staff Only" signs, here, we finally get a "Grads Only" entrance :)


Mr. Gary Little, our Associate Superintendent, and Mr. A. Pirie, an awesome and hardworking teacher who is seen here organizing grad awards with a broken hand!


All eyes are on the grads...


Here we have, from left to right: Ms. L. Buteau, Ms. F. Ziakos, Ms. M. Densford, Mr. B. Stephenson, Mr. J. McGillivray, Mr. J. Nakamoto, Dr. G. Gabbott, Mr. C. Larouche and Mr. R. Manhas.


Here we have our Principal, Mr. A. Krawczyk, awaiting the grads.


As always, the calm precedes the storm that must surely follow, so here is the scramble as the grads, restless after 2 hours and 45 minutes of awards, get up to leave.


And just like that, it was over.
