My name is Rosemary Jean McLaughlin, nee Ashton, and I was a first day pupil when the school opened in February 1945. That means that next year will be the school’s 75th anniversary. Is there going to be any celebration of this milestone? I attended the 50th anniversary but I certainly won’t be around for the centennial! I would appreciate any information.
