Blyth GRADUATION
2006
Grade Ss gather for one final time at graduation
By Hannah Uyl
Whether it's
been 10 years or
just 10 months,
together we have
grown. We've
laughed, we've
cried and through
it all we've
become closer.
Tonight we've come together as a
group for one last time. We are all
now moving on to new schools,
setting new goals, will be meeting
new people and trying new things.
Parents, friends, staff, students and
fellow graduates, we did it, and
we're here to night to reward and
celebrate the achievements of Blyth
Public School's graduating class of
2006.
Through growth spurts, curves and
cracking voices, looking through
pictures' where I don't even
recognize myself, but we've grown
so much more than just physically.
More noticeable changes have
occurred thanks to our years at Blyth
Public School.
No matter where we go, or who
we become, we will never forget
those who helped us get there. One
goes to school to learn and be taught.
One needs an environment where
success is the goal and flexibility is
the key.
On behalf of the grads of 2006, I
would first like to thank all the staff
who helped us along the way. Thank
you teachers, for sticking by and
supporting us in all we do. We've
learned so much, but not just by the
words you speak and the curriculum
you teach by, but by being the
diverse group of people that you are.
By using your strengths and
admitting your weaknesses you have
helped us grow to learn that nobody
is perfect and that your personal best
is the best you can do. Teaching is
more than just a job, it's a way of the
life and you live it well.
You can't walk by the office
without seeing the friendly smile and
jolly laugh of Mrs. Watt,
remembering that a little magic
spray makes everything all better.
Ms Morton, the one who keeps us in
line but always takes time out of her
busy day to stop and ask us how we
are doing.
There is one who tried to make a
peacemaker out of us all and just so
happens to be a wealth of knowledge
when it comes to math. Mrs. Cronin
introduced us to the Gauss math test,
which could have been stressful; if it
wasn't for her friendly reminders
that it was suppose to be fun. Mrs.
Nivens always made us feel
comfortable sharing our opinions
after she shared hers, making our
little talks about big issues at break
always a favourite.
We are always encouraged to use
our "imaginations" and "creative
minds" but somehow it always
seemed that they finally flickered on
after the recess bell rang.
Creating games like Rated R„
which soon became rated 'not school
appropriate', and the tree game, later
adapted by the girls to be the bench
game was more fun than playing
soccer or basketball.
We learned many valuable lessons
as a class, in Grade 1 we all learned
a little bit about love, when Laura
and Colton fell madly head over
heals for each other. After being
formally united in marriage, they
were presented with an anniversary
cake to mark an occasion we won't
soon forget.
In Grade 3 we all learned how
convincing confidence can he. when
Maaike had us all tricked into
believing she was a witch and with
one wrong move we would become
frogs.
Individuality was a fun thing to
learn and teach at Blyth Public
School, from hair-dos to the odd
make-up attack, we had fun teaching
