On Monday evening, the one-hundred-and fifty grade eight graduates were treated td a banquet prepared by the grade seven mothers. Then they endured a long picture- taking session; and finally they filed solemnly into the packed auditorium of a nearby secondary school, while the grade seven band' played and the audience 'made up of parents, friends and relatives stood watching. 7The girls . wore long sweeping gowns. and their hair showed the relkards of hours spent in beatity shoppes. The boys wore suits; and a few brave souls had even consented to wearing. tics. ' The valedictorian Aik a few parting pokes at his teachers and fellow classmates that he. hadn't dared to take earlier in the year. And there wasn't a dry eye in the house when,he thanked the 'parents on behalf of all the students -and the class rose to give nick,. ',parents a standing ovation.. As their names were announced, the graduates made the long walk up the stairs and across the platform to receive their diplomas, and at the other end, they were blinded by -flashing . cameras. For some of them, 'the official ceremonies were just dull details that had to be endured before the important part of the evening began - the dance. On the next afternoon, my youngest nephew marched into the gymnasium of the public school with the rest of the kindergarten graduates. They wore red caps with gold tassels, and they filed "in .even more solemly fluid the grade eights. They sat on bencheg" in front of the audience. 'Parerits and grand= parents, were, the only invited guests, but,! noticed "a few brothers and sisters and at least one aunt who had gate-crashed. ' As their names were called, the graduate hurried up the steps of the platfOtin to receive their Bacholer of , Kindergarten Degrees, BKGN." Again cameras flashed, recording a once-in-a-lifetiine event. ' Then the class entertained the audience by singing three songs specially selected for the occasion - Little Growl Frog, Winnie The Pooh and Small World. sister and brother-in-law must have felt Id as they Watched their "baby" shake hands • with his teacher and. as they watched their oldest son drive their daughter to her graduation.
