Here we are...We are, all here. Most of you probably know why we areo receive eCeive our report cards, payrespect our teachers, wear our new dresses and suits, graduate...and finally to bid farewell to RMPS,, , forever. We have perservered throughout another year, and what a year it has been. It has been a year of change. New classmates, new teachers, new rules...wait don't fall asleep yet...and a new principal. Ah yes—Mr. MacLennan. He has brought with him new ideas,''new standards and regulations, all of which have made life as a student well—interesting. Yes, Mr. MacLen- nan you are certainly one of a kind, and so was that outfit you wore on Clash Day. Now that I have finished• picking on Mr. MacLennan, I would _ like to address my, fellow graduates. Fellow grads: we finally made it. We have lasted through countless rocks and minerals, Mr. Matthies' attempts at humour, numerous "er" verbs and the American Revolution. We are the class of '86. And here We are, out of our jeans and Roots sweatshirts, about to go where many have gone, but from, none have returned— the halls of GDCI. But before we go, let us reminisce about our senior year, shall we?. CQn jratulations Grads Good Luck and Best wishes in the years ahead.

The girls—it was the last game. If they won, they won the pennant. If they lost they lost everything. They faced Colborne. "Go ahead, make my day" after an age of sweat and tears (Go Rams, Go Rams), and the whistle blew (Go Rams, Go Rams)—we won! ! ! ! Oh, and the boys?

But thanks to Mrs. Steigmiere, Mt% Spittle, a lot of talented actresses, actors, stage, lighting and prop crews, the Grade 8 musical was a tree-men-dous success. This sell-out also provided money for Canada's Wonderland. We had a great time, braving the rides, wasting money on the games, catching, pneumonia oil<White Water Canyon and just laughing together. When you look back it hasn't been all bad, our senior year. And now that school has come to an end...no, let me not say "end" for Robertson isn't the end...it has merely prepared us for another beginning. Thank you.
