I saw this on the news! My son graduated from Trent University where he met his wife, and they now have a daughter. He graduated this year from Trent Teachers' College. We went to the Convocation...... We live in Peterborough! This is so awesome! 8)
@sixcie1 - I agree, the drop out rate is fairly high in high school, but those youth who graduate from high and go beyond, we need more. Am glad the media picked up on it. Courage and determination I am sure were needed on his 8 year process..different language, culture and away from small home community.
Beautiful girls.
@styx_site - These girls were 10 and 11 and spontaneously showed me how they did throat singing together.
This a beautiful photo. A very nicely caught portrait.
