Ii Up
Least week around the 'Sentinel was hec-
tic, to say the least! It was time for the
yearly graduation edition 'pictures to 'be
taken. Our edition includes grade eight
grads, grade eight award winners and
kindergarten grads. We carry pictures
from four schools In this area, Lucknow
Central, Lueknow Christian, Il ingsbridge
and Brookside. Life was hectic simply
getting the .appointments made for
various times and ensuring they were
entered in my appointment book correct=
ly. I checked and double checked to be
sure II had theme all listed with their cor-
rect times and no overlapping.
The beginning of the week was upon
me and :the running started to record for
life the "precious faces ofthose graduating
from one stage of 'their life into another.
Taking pictures of kindergarten classes
would be a breeze for an experienced
photographer, but for someone fairly new
to this task, I was a nervous wreck.
Afterall, I didn't want hundreds or even
thousands of parents, grandparents,
aunts, uncles, cousins, brothers, sisters
and teachers 'ticked off with the Sentinel
photographer if little Susie's picture turn-
ed out poor. If you have ever had me
take pictures at an event for you, you
know that I ALWAYS take at least five.
I figure the more I take the safer I'll be
when it comes time to _print the, pictures.
Keeping kindergarten children still" while
I click away on the camera is no easy
task. I can have a blurred pie quite easi-
ly enough, thank you very much! Little
ones figure one click of the camera
should be enough. Keeping all eyes front,
bands away -from the face, motarboards
on straight or even on, dresses down, and
shirts tucked in, all at the same time is
almost impossible, but we did our best.
One .class bad been on recess just pri, )r
to my .arrival .and of course .a couple 3f
the .tittle boys had found at least one in id
puddle :to "play in. But that's what :makes

little boys, right? We simply stood them
i n the back row to camouflage the shght-
13r soiled, wet pants.
One princi i : at kindergarten gradua-
tion said it all when he recalled
September 488 when some of the little
ones had to be practically dragged down
the `hall to class. Some of them were so
timid and unsure of what sebowl was
about they were crying. He recalled the
amount off singing the children par-
ticipated in during the first week. He pro-
ceeded to compare the children of
September c; r to the children of June `89
and point out bow much confidence they
had gained in themselves during the
school year as they stood in front of an
auditorium of people and put on a small
program.
Taking grade eight graduates is a lit-
tle differentstory. They tend to stand
still, ''but are self conscious about standing
that long in front of my camera. While
attending one graduation ,ceremony I ran
into a teenager I 'knew. My reaction was,
"you're not .graduating . this year?" To
me she was still the little girl I had met
five years ago. II marvelled at the change
from the first time I had met her until
that night, all dressed up, hair carefully
stylecLandl_ wearing pens Once again,_
the thought ran through me 'head, "time
stands still for no one.
Vague remembrances of my own grade
eight graduation flashed through the grey
matter a special dress, dancing with the
principal, being taller than the boys and
wondering what high school held in store
for me.
Despite the hectic week I must admit
it was rather enjoyable seeing your
children leaving one stage of their life
ready to embark upon another.
I sincerely hope you enjoy our gradua-
tion edition.
