Fellow graduates, parents, teach
ers, family, and friends. It’s an hon
our to represent the graduates of
2000!
It just seems like yesterday we
were graduating from kindergarten
in our pink, purple and yellow flow
ered dresses,-and for the guys, their
best pants and tops. We started with
17 classmates. Today, the girls are in
beautiful dresses, make-up, and hair
in up-dos with the guys in their best
suits and we graduate with 14, the
nine of us knowing each other since
kindergarten.
But we wouldn’t be here tonight
without the love and support of our
parents. They were the ones who
took pictures of the first day of
school, walking on the big yellow
bus; they were the ones helping us
with our homework when we were
stuck; they were the ones who went
on field trips with us; and they were,
the ones who went with us to buy
our graduation dresses and suits,

even if they seriously didn’t want to.
We couldn’t have made those whole
nine years without them.
As the years come and go, we will
never forget the special people who
taught us how to tie our shoes, how
to sing (which I still need some help
with), history, caring for others and
French, just to name a few. Those
are our teachers. They were kind and
good friends to everyone and we
couldn’t have made it without them.
I believe it was Mrs. Wilson in
kindergarten, with her dress-up area
and sandbox.
It was Mrs. Brydges in Grade one
with Marshmallow the rabbit and
the warm fuzzies and cold prickles
she taught us about.
