  1. Many many years ago (I am presently 81) we had a one room classroom and a pot belly stove. In winter our teacher would open cans of Campbell's veg soup and heat that upend serve it to all the students, from K to Grade 6. It was in Canada and the winters were fierce, so no one walked home for lunch. It was bad enough walking to school in the morning and back home at 3 pm. We thought it was all normal. My mother had been a teacher in different one room classrooms and I have pictures. Of course we were under British rule, more than we are today, and sang God save the King and then the Queen, no Canadian national anthem. We also got on our knees and said the "Our Father" every morning. I skipped grades and ended up at a Boarding School much younger than my lifetime friends. However, we never spoke about ages or birthdays. It was 40 years later I found out the age difference. No wonder they were all much wiser than I was!! I loved my life and see my grand-daughter today happy in her special private school enjoying nature and K and Grade One was devoted to making these little ones strong in character, have empathy for others, and all the great traits students had long ago.
