KEY ' TO SCHOOL—Huron-Perth Separate School Board Trustee Vince Mclnnes of
Wingham presented the key to the school to retiring' Principal Mary O'Malley at the of-
ficial opening of the new addition to Sacred Heart School recently.
Principal Mary O'Malley
retires from Sacred Heart
Sacred Heart School in
Wingham will lose one of its
links . td' its origins - when
Principal Mary O'Malley
retires at the end of this
month.
It is evident that Mrs.
O'Malley- is held in high
esteem, judging by the large
numher of students, teachers
and parents who braved the
rain Sunday and attended
the retirement tea in her
honor.
Many former students and
teachers paid fond tribute to
the woman who has been
principal at the school for 23
years and a stalwart sup-
porter of Catholic education.
Mrs. O'Malley was born
and raised at Stratford,
where she received her early
education. She attended the
Loretto Academy (a girls'
high school) before heading
to teachers' college in.
Stra tford.
Her first teaching position
was at S.S. No. 1, Culross.
While in the Teeswater area
she met and married her
husband Charles. .
With eight .children in 13
years, she d dnt't have much
time for teat ng. However,
she did go-ba-ek-t-owor-li in -the
late 1950s and spent . two
years at Culross before
teaching for two years in.
Deernerton.
It was at that time she was
approached with an offer to
become principal ofh
Catholic school at Wingham.
The offer intrigued her but
she also was apprehensive as
she had no idea what to
expect. •
The idea would not leave
her and finally she agreed to
take over as principal when
the school opened in 1961.
Her -fears- were -for --the most -
part unfounded as she said
r .
she found the adjustment
very. easy to make.
The board was very
supportive of her efforts -as
were the parents. Their main
concern was to provide a
Catholic education for the
students.
The school started with a
total of 50 pupils and two
teachers. Slowly, but surely,
it grew in numbers., and
prestige. A Kindergarten
was added in the mid-1960s •
and there was an additigyt to
the school in 1968. A new
gymnasium, offices,
classroom and library were
added last year as. well.
Declining enrollment
appears to be the trend in the
public school system, but not
at Sacred Heart where the
numbers .of students just
keep climbing. Today, there
are 123 pupils enrolled at the
_school and seven teachers.
Mrs. O'Malley attributes
the increased enrollment to
new families moving into the
area and a new generation of
children starting to attend
school. In fact Mrs. O'Malley
said many children at , the
school today are the sons and
daughters of • its first._
s.
s «den
Mrs. O'Malley definitely
has mixed feelings about
leaving Sacred Heart. She
will miss the contact with the
children most of all and with.,
the other teachers, although
ofthe
new she has hinted_she__ma-y_be_..._..
back in the fall to do some
volunteer teaching.
Mrs. O'Malley is happy
she has so many of her 13.
grandchildren nearby to
spoil and visit. , She also
belongs t� the Catholic
Women's League, the
Women's Institute and the
