MARYFIELD — Graduation is a milestone in a young person’s life. The graduating class of 2022 from Maryfield School celebrated this on June 25.
The ceremony took place in the school gymnasium. The young women dressed in their elegant gowns and the young men all dressed up in their suits. They made their way around the gym with their escorts, until they took their place on the stage. Family and friends gathered to witness this huge step in the students’ lives.
Guest speaker Barb Boon, a former teacher from Maryfield School, shared stories and offered some wisdom for the grads to take with them on their journey into adulthood.
The valedictorians, Bo Moore and Pernil Gonzales, shared the honour and spoke to those in attendance.
Each student has a different outlook on life. Some know their path and others need a little time. It is not always easy to figure this out. Here are the plans for the graduating class of 2022.
Moore is unsure of his plans and will take some time and work while he decides what he would like to study. Gonzales will be attending the University of British Columbia to study computer engineering. Hayden Olsen wishes to become an electrician. He will apprentice under Jeannot Electric in Moosomin.
Brynn Downer is on a waiting list to attend college to become a dental assistant. While she waits, she will work. Samantha Penner is also undecided at this time on what to study and plans to work until she has decided.
Parker Sweeting plans to work while he decides what he might study in the future. Kaitlyn Veysey will be attending SAIT to study film production.
After the ceremony, a social was held for everyone to enjoy.
