Ciara and Sam |
The graduates offered heartfelt gratitude to their school, their teachers, their parents, their friends and their town. During the speeches it was made clear these two positive leaders will be missed in our school culture. Both students were rewarded with numerous scholarships for their hard work, excellent grades and community involvement.

A large and generous team of volunteers were responsible for decorating, and assisting Santos Sharma from Oceanview Cafe put out a delicious meal of salad, pakoras, samosas, and a rich butter chicken over rice with naan bread. Several of the younger high schoolers acted as serving staff, and ran back and forth tirelessly serving our delicious meal. There were people in the kitchen finishing up the dishes until late in the evening. Alyssa Russell, Ciara's younger sister, provided the gorgeous cakes.
So, Sam and Ciara, it was a treat to meet your visiting families, and show everyone just how proud we all are of you both. Much love to you, and good luck as you venture out into the world as adults. In the words of Fern Eastcott, our school board trustee, "You are always welcomed to your home town of Tahsis. You are never alone."
