Anticipation and trepidation,
excitement and sorrow - all these
emotions were being experienced by
the 23 graduates at Hullett Central
School, Monday, June 26. In his
valedictorian address, Adam Oliver
reminisced of their nine years
together and the experiences and
teachers they shared.
While they enjoyed picture taking
with their friends and shared a few
giggles together, they were reminded
of the fact they would not all be
attending the same high school.
Their lives have changed with the
graduation they had all looked

fire was God whose grace delivered
the men.
The United Church of Canada was

The theme of the 75th anniversary

Sixty years ago last Saturday, July
1, Gordon and Helen Radford and
son, Jim, moved into the White Rose
Service Station at the junction of
Hwy. 4 and County Rd. 15. They
lived upstairs and Gordon served gas
and repaired automobiles.
Gas in 1940 was 25 cents a gallon
or five cents a litre. Gas taxes were
fondly of their own years at Hullett
School and the friendships made
there.
Officer Carey emphasized the
need to make wise decisions and
develop good work habits as these
things have a strong impact on one’s
future. Officer Nesbitt stressed the
importance of teamwork and
dependability. His work has taught
him that a variety of job skills opens
doors to the future.
Another graduate of Hullett
Central School, Andrea Vandendool,
has won a scholarship to study
optometry at the University of
Waterloo. Andrea, daughter of Bert
and Joan Vandendool, received the
award from the Avon Maitland
Branch of the Elementary Teacher's
Federation of Ontario.
Following graduation from HPS
she attended Seaforth high school
where for five years she was an
honour student. Congratulations,
Andrea!
