We've completed the trip over the bridge
by Sara Kramers and Jeff
DeCorte
"All you need is love."
Let's take a look at our school
years at St. James, and compare it
to walking across a bridge. We
started out in kindergarten as
scared little students; we were at
the beginning of a long bridge that
had to be crossed somehow.
As we walked along it we gained
wisdom that would improve in the
long run. We found friends and
teachers that made our journey eas-
ier. Sometimes there were obstacles
that would block our way; like that
one time we had a never-ending
project about Hatchet. Together we
overcame the obstacles and com-
pleted our adventure over the
Elementary Bridge.
But we are now at the start of
another bridge, a more difficult
bridge, a more difficult journey, our
secondary education. We still have
our friends with us, and through-
out our new journey we will meet
new friends and teachers to encour-
age us to keep the good work going
across the next bridge. During our
life we will have to cross more
bridges, sometimes alone. But there
will always be an exit waiting for
you to achieve.
It has been a great experience, at
St. James, but I think that with the
help from our friends, family, and
teachers we are now ready to begin
our journey on to St. Anne's, or St.
Mike's. We have had many memo-
ries at this school, some good, and
some bad, and we will remember
them always.
A -special thanks goes out to our
parents for driving us to, school
when we would miss the bus, pay-
ing for trips and food orders and
helping us out with our never-end-
ing homework. We'd also like to
thank everyone who helped make
this graduation perfect. Thanks to
the staff members and volunteers,
Fr. Chris and everyone else who
made our 10 years
at St. James won-
derful.
To complete these
awesome years at
St. James, there
has to be some awe-
some people to go
along with it.
The first person
on our list is Codie
Janes; also called
CJ, came to our
school in grade 7,
and it seems like
she has been here
all along. She's
always willing to
lend a helping hand
whenever needed.
Evan Ribey, aka
E -man, aka Oliver
Warbucks; is always
the `smart' one who
can help you with
your schoolwork. He
also knows any big words that you
might need to know to step up your
homework. He's generous and quite
a gentleman.
Pamela Fonseca
came to our
school in grade 6,
with a love of shop-
ping, singing, danc-
ing and laughing. I
actually think that I
can hear her laugh-
ing right now.
Jordan
Coyne; aka Jordie,
is known for her
bright red hair, and
I think that all the
girls were scared to
face her in track
and field for her
fast long legs.
One of the
tallest people in our
class is Alex
Melady. Wow, no
one knew that you
could run that fast!
He always had an
obsession for dirt
biking, paint balling
and calling Ms.
Dolmage "coach' in class.
David Robinson, aka Dangerous
Dave, aka Burn Master; he makes
stupid things into the funniest
things in the world and he is one of

the biggest farmers in the class.
Danielle Chisholm is another
newcomer to our school, she came in
grade 4. She quickly made friends
with the girls and the guys in our
class. She had some blonde
moments; like in Quebec when she
thought that people ice -fished in the
summer and how many provinces
are there in Canada? 23?
Rachel Askett always gets her
homework done, and is known for
her love of ringette and other
sports. She should definitely get one
award, for having the loudest burp
in the class.
Kalen Devereaux; he always has
healthy food in his lunch box, but
you can always find him scooping
out food from Pam and Danielle's
lunches for something that can
make him hyper. Oh ya, Kalen, do
you remember Hilary? McDonalds
was pretty good last year wasn't it
Kalen? First time?
Kaleb Arts, the biggest soccer fan
in the class, and he is known for not
going on the bus on Tuesday
because he is helping his dad with
the pigs. Maybe later I can borrow
that orange vest of yours so I can
bike on the highway.
It was a surprise when we found
out that we were getting a new per-
son when school was almost over,
but it seems like she's been here all
along. Martie Bokkers has the best
scream ever, and she showed us all
in Quebec.
Jon Fournier, aka Jack Hammer
Johnny. Whenever he has a chance
he can make the whole class start
laughing, except the teacher some-
times. It was strange how he did his
speech on pencils, when he always
loses the ones that he gets. Maybe if
he cleaned out his desk more often
he would find them all.
Colin Campbell, aka Chubbs, has
a high five, or shake 'n bake for
everything, and can always make
