Stratford and ....... now what??

Well.......our much anticipated day in Stratford is now another great McQuarrie memory. I trust it was everything you were hoping for! I'd love to hear your comments on the workshops, the play, and of course the reunion with great friends.

And......now for next year.......
There is no doubt that I will be planning a McQuarrie Stratford trip in May for as long as I continue to work here and, after talking to you yesterday, I think that from now on, it should be open to current students and alumni. How does that sound?? My other idea is that we should do something in the fall. I will be very anxious to hear how you are all doing in Grade 9 and I imagine you'd enjoy hearing each other's stories too. What about a Boston Pizza (or something like that) night in October?? And, for the Harry fans, I'll be in touch here in July! It's going to be a big month!
What do you think?

It was wonderful to see you all yesterday. My classroom hasn't quite been the same since you all 'graduated'!
You are all very special to me......stay in touch, ok??
Peace, love and happiness.....
