Meet and Greet


Larry Mosher

My name is Larry Mosher. I worked as a janitor at Presentation School. Every day I cleaned the floors, desks, and blackboards: I also cleaned all the glass in the school. In the summer time, I gave the floors a good scrubbing before the students came back. I decided to come back to school to improve my reading and writing skills. I really enjoy it here.

Donna Mitchell

My name is Donna Mitchell. I decided to come back to school because I knew that my daughter, Holly, needed help with her homework. Holly has a learning disability. I didn't get good grades in English when I went to school. That is why I came to the Learning Centre. I am learning to improve my Spelling, English, Science, Social Studies, Math, Reading, and computer skills. It is nice to have a place where other learners like myself can get together.

My name is Melvin Stone. I fished with my father on the Labrador. We moved " back to Comer Brook in 1962 to find work. I worked in the mill with contractors for 25 years. I decided to come back to school to better my education.
