Mr. Speaker, on Friday, May 2, I had the pleasure of
attending a prom night for the class of 2008 at
Ascension Collegiate in Bay Roberts.
The celebration began with a church service at the
Pentecostal Tabernacle in Port de Grave, followed by a
dinner which was held at the Bay Arena with 900 people
in attendance.
The theme for the event was: Tonight’s Dream –
Tomorrow’s Memory. It was an evening to remember,
celebrating with 240 graduates that made up the
forty-third graduating class at Ascension Collegiate.
Mr. Speaker, Mr. Philip Wood, the principal,
encouraged the students to continue with the same
commitment and hard work as they had experienced at
Ascension Collegiate and they would certainly achieve
their dreams.
The valedictorian speech was presented by Kayla
Bishop. Travis Simms and Samantha March were crowned
Prom King and Queen.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all hon. members to join me in
saying thank you to the staff of Ascension Collegiate
for a job well done, and extending sincere
congratulations to the graduating class of 2008.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. |
