Enid Stanford O'Brien shared this beautiful picture with us. Any of you who went to Holy Heart will recognize the "Cor Unum" visible on the corkboard as part of the motto of Holy Heart of Mary High School. Who remembers the whole Latin motto and its English translation?
Elizabeth, Patricia, Barbara, Betty, Enid |
This was indeed a very special occasion. I will let Enid tell the story of the picture and the lovely young ladies.
"It was taken on graduation night at HHM Regional High School just before we went to the auditorium to get our diplomas. We all went to St. Patrick's (except Betty O'Leary) from Kindergarten until we graduated.
They are as follows L-R: Elizabeth Roche, Patricia Squires, Barbara Singleton, Betty O'Leary and myself. This picture would have been taken in 1962."
In those early days of Regional High Schools, you graduated from Grade 8 at St Patrick's then went on to High School at Holy Heart of Mary to complete your education.
Many thanks, Enid, for this post and for all the help you give us with this blog. If anyone else out there has anything they would like to share, please send to us at mcallistersmith@gmail.com and we will be delighted to post it here.
Oh, by the way, the motto was "Cor Unum Inter Nos" and its English translation is "One Heart Among Us". I am sure we all remember that!
