Memories:Good Memories, great staff, lots of fun was had. I remember singing carols at Christmas in the hallways as youngsters. The Grade 8 tour, we looked forward to this in our Middle Years. High School...the brown couches in lobby, if you were quick enough one could lounge at recess!! Fads or Trends: One of the big things to do in the winter was Hockey fan bus trips. 40 below, we were there! TV Shows - Macgyver, Growing Pains, Facts of Life. Movies - The Karate Kid comes to mind. Clothes - Wind pants were a big hit.
Additional Comments:Great project! Nice to reconnect! Kelliher was a great place to grow up!
Memories: Mr. Mitchell playing baseball with us during recess and all the trouble I got out of because of track practice
Fads or Trends: Lindsay on the back page of the yearbook BAWOOSH!
Additional Comments: Walking around the school the other day it was not hard bringing back old memories even with some of the changes that were made and it makes me wish and hope that maybe someday my boys will get the chance to stroll the halls that helped shape my life and give them memories that they will hold for the rest of their lives.
Continued Education: I completed my Bachelor of Arts Honors Degree in Psychology with minors in English and Sociology, and an advanced certificate in business administration
Memories:Singing Christmas carols in Elementary school, Christmas concerts, airbands in Grade 6, Grade 8 Tour, awesome teachers like Mr. Mitchell, extended noon hours for track and field, organizing dances, football games, and lots of things that would only mean something to our class members!
Fads or Trends: Huge hair with lots of hairspray, acid wash jeans, New Kids on the Block, Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, Another World; all the other things that came with the early '90s.
Additional Comments: What a great project! It was fun to look through the different years, see the responses so far, and to think back to school days in Kelliher.
Continued Education: Graduated with honours from Seneca College - Computer Programming
Memories: My family and I moved to Toronto just after I started grade 7, so I only have memories of the elementary years. Some of the things I will always remember are Krazy Karpets on the big hill during the winter, air bands in grade 6 (Dire Straits - Money For Nothin'), trading hockey cards and stickers, Christmas carols in the hallways, and football at recess (3rd down - kicking or gambling?).
Fads or Trends: When we were kids, the must-have toys were GI Joe, M.A.S.K., and Transformers. I remember Ghostbusters being a popular movie. I also remember Corey Hart, Bon Jovi, and Cyndi Lauper being top of the charts.
Additional Comments: My time in Kelliher is special to me, and I hope to bring my wife and 2 daughters there one day to show them my home town. This alumni page is a great idea... I hope to hear from some of my old friends!
