On Thursday, June 20 at 11:15am a closing ceremony will be held at Sharbot Lake Public School. Former students and staff as well as the general public are invited to come out to mark the event, which will include speeches and performances by current students.

“We will also be opening a time capsule that was done in the year 2000” said school principal, David Allison, “and there will be a memory room devoted to displaying artefacts from the school’s history.”

There will be tours of the building available for those who are interested.

David Allison is also putting out an appeal to the community for materials that may be of historical interest. It’s kind of a last chance for show and tell at the school. Anyone who would like to contact the school about the artefacts they are planning to bring can call 279-2103 to let the school know, or they can just bring them on the 20th to share with others.

“The school has been such an integral part of the community” said Allison, “and we would like as many people as possible to come out for its send-off as the students prepare to move just down the road to the new school next year.”
