Dear Miss Leeming: We, the pupilst.
and parents of S.S.No. 7, Tucker-;
smith, have gathered here this e e
ping with mixed emotions:.:;?
we look back over the past yes*
we were extremely fortunate is
having a teacher of your outstand
ing ability. You have that speci.al
quality of character which brought,
the pupils to love and respect you.
Your discipline :and the academie •`
achievements of the pupils will nev-
er be excelled. Your musical abil-
ity is exceptional, and we feel your . .
loss keenly, not only in our own '
school, but for the Area as a. whole.
What is our dire less` will be Mc
Kdllop's .gain. We shall miss you;
not only in the activities of . the
school, but as a friend. Your kind=
ness, consideration and' your win-
ning smile will always ibe remem-
bered. It is with the deepest regret
we accept the fate that the Tucker-
smith School Area Board has
brought upon as.
We all should know that the sec-
ret of a good school is a good
teacher, and you, Miss Leeming, as.
teacher, played no;'antall part in
developing our children as good
citizens of tomorrow: 'We shall nev-
er forget the training you have giv-
en our children to ,pe 'honest, to be
unselfish, to be generous, and your
willingness to join with them
games. You have been more im-
portant to your pupils than the
Premier of Canada, and you should
be rewarded accordingly.
We all join in wishing you good
luck in your' neve' school. If you
decide to change schools next year,
you will find No. 7, Tuckersmith,
school -door wide open. As a token
of our high regard for you, Norma,
we ask you to accept these, gifts.—
Signed on behalf of your pupils and
