I was greatly honoured by the warmth of the welcome I received at the 20th anniversary celebrations of the Ontario Chapter of the OSA. It gives me great joy to know that so many of you have happy memories of your years at QES and that the education you received there, the wider education and not just the academic learning, has stood you in good stead in subsequent years. I am very happy also to see that many of the friendships made at school have lasted over the decades. Education should aim at the development of the individual morally, emotionally, intellectually, spiritually and in other ways, i.e. at the full development of the individual as a member of society, and many of us teachers tried in our various ways to be true to this ideal Friendship contributes to this development and so good friends are very important in our lives. The older I get the more I appreciate the friends I have had and the friends, many of them from QES, who I still have and who contribute more than they realise to the continuing development of my life and understanding. To conclude this short homily I would like to emphasise that my years in QES formed an important part of my own education for, while trying to help in your education, I was myself being educated by your successes and failures, your behaviour, your ideas and activities. I owe you my thanks. Arthur Hinton. |
