Gerry (the Gardener) Celebrates his 99th Birthday

Last week the whole school celebrated Gerry's birthday.  Our class played an important role making a card (which every student and staff member signed), making a banner, welcoming Gerry and Molly, helping to lead the singing of "Happy Birthday",  and presenting the gift and card.  A slide show with pictures of Gerry then and now and photos showing the evolution of the garden was shown and the whole school counted to 99. (That seemed to take forever!)  Molly and Gerry were thrilled!

The next day Mike McCardle from CTV featured Gerry on The Last Word.
