We learned lots and planned lots and took,part in many fun events. Ah. yes, the Grade Eight trip! The trip where we rode the motor coach for several hours so that we could see those magnificent "6 pack" stomachs colored in Blue Jay blue up on the giant Jumbotron of Sky Dome. Selling all that stuff was worth it. wasn't it girls! We all have lots of memories of fun with Mrs. Cooper and ,Mr. PaVee. Graduation is about memories and also about thanks. Thanks to the many teachers. many of whom I have already mentioned, for all the many lessons in life this far, and the many wonderful memories. Thanks also to all of our moms and dads ( and in my case, also Rose -Anne) who have always been there for us in signing those hundreds of permission sheets, lending' us' moolah and moral support and for all those things for which they never ever get thanked - like homework and help with all of. those little steps along life's path. I also want to say "Thanks a lot" to my classmates. the Class' of '98. for the support and reward of choosing me Co be your valedictorian. This is a special honour which 1 will always treasure. And who will ever. ever forget "Mom" away from home. Mrs. June Cooper. She was there for us if we needed help or, needed a bandage ' for a cut. She called home when we weren't feeling well. she talked to us when we were upset and she gave us hugs when we needed one. She gave us encouragement when it was needed and she even gave us hotdogs! June Cooper was the glue that held us all together. Graduation is also about dreams of things yet to come. the dreams that may _ one day see Kate become "cool Teacher Kate" and Hammy become a Gr. 2 School -Mammy. and Meaghan hecome "Ms. Motivational". Graduation is about the dreams that may see Ken and Derek speeding down the ice. not the school parking -lot: on' ice which has been made super fast by Bill. only to he stopped by Constable Crystal. Graduation is about the dreams that may see Mike, Denise. Jystin and Melissa become famous selling hot dogs at WWF bouts featuring- Killer Kyle and Powerful Paul. Graduation is about the dreams that may y see Nicole and Pam K. trading clothes that they have designed and so on. for each of us has our own dreams. Graduation is about the steps along the path of our dreams that each of us has taken so far. The dreams of the Class of '98. all of which I wish 1 had time to mention. are great! Our dreams will reach far and wide: Whatever those many dreams may be, 1 am sure that we. the class of ''98. will continue to make our mark, just as we have each made our mark 'along the path so far. It is my wish that the wind will he ever at your back and that the bumps in your path might be small. Thank you. Huron Centennial Award winners Top Academic Girl. Pamela Hamilton.

Friendships won't come to an end By Marion Visser Valedictorian 1 am very proud and honored to be the valedictorian of the St. Columban class of '98. have spent my whole elementary career in the St. Patrick's and St. Columban school community. and I have gained a wealth of knowledge that will last me a lifetime. Now that my nine years of elementary schooling is about to end I look back on those years that I have spent with my peers that are present here today. Most of us have been together the whole journey, from kindergarten to grade eight, and I'm sure we can still remember when the school day was filled with All of your hard work has paid off GREAT WORK! KELLY AUTO SW 8 SERVICE 5274122 crafts. play time and nap time. As we moved along into reading. writing and math we took the leap to Si Patrick's School. Dublin. In 1995 we returned to St. Columban, with the addition of three new classrooms and a gym. Over the years we have become friends with each other and many of our friendships won't end after tonight. Some of us will remain friends throughout our adulthood, friendships that started here at St. Columban School. This past year was especially memorable. We were the leaders of the school and as we tried to live up to that title Ms. Barsanti-Innis, Keep up the GREAT WORK!

Mrs. Wacher, Mr. Reilly and all the other teachers in our school community were always there to keep us on the right track. My experience at St. Columban School has been unbelievable. Growing up in a rural school with it's main focus on Catholic education has made me into a young Christian adult. From kindergarten the teachers in our school community have worked hard to set us on the right path to make us active members of our Catholic community. Time after time the teachers encouraged us to follow the gold rule "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." They have taught us how to follow Jesus in our lives. As our teachers urged us to perform our hest, be responsible and be ourselves. they taught us some very valuable lessons about life. They made us strive for our grades. They were also the peace keepers when disagreements came between us. They have given us our education. one of the greatest gifts they could possible give us. This gift that will never break down or wear out. we• will rely on it throughout our lives. This gift often goes unnoticed. On behalf of the grade eight graduation class I would like to thank all the teachers and stat) for the gift of our education, thanks.
