You need to look very carefully and you can see the wires on fire by this transformer. That happened this past Sonday and the loud noise it made, I just had to go outside to see what made the noise. After seeing the burning hydro wires I wondered if we would still have EDH - city power - at night. We did but the dwellers on the other side of the street didn't. Oh, the simple pleasure of life like electricity.
This past week was exam week on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. There was no school in the afternoons. There were special programs on those mornings. This is a snapshot of the graduating grade 8 class. Their ceremony was held this past Tuesday morning and many of the parents were also present. Yes they also came to school on Wednesday morning. On Wednesday we had a step-up program for the grade six class. They were stepping up from elementary school to middle school. The students were challenged at both programs to live for Jesus.
The elementary students had a 'field' day last Tuesday. The grade 1 - 6 were divided into groups and had various fun activities such as the one pictured here - a wet sponge was passed over and under the team members and the dripping sponge was squeezed to see which team could fill the coke bottle first. Many of the students cooled themselves before the water came to the coke bottle.
Yesterday was the school graduation for the grade 12 students. There were 15 graduates. It was neat to hear a former graduate give advice to the students. A parent whose daughter was graduating, who himself was also a graduate of the school, prayed for the class. A teacher addressed the graduates giving what their names meant in service to Him. This picture is the inside of St. James the Just Episcopal Church. There was a reception after the service celebrating Amelia Chabot, a QCS graduate. The service was in English. Starting time as stated on the bulletin - just after 8 A.M. The doors were still locked when I came. The traffic noise outside drowned out the service many a time of the many trucks going up the mountain:-)
