FALL RIVER/BEDFORD: “She’s my sister,” yelled a proud younger brother inside the Seton Academic Centre at Mount Saint Vincent University in Bedford as Lockview High’s morning graduation session took place on June 27.

The Fall River school had two sessions a morning one and an afternoon one which began shortly after noon.

In the morning session, the grads were joined by staff from the school and special dignitaries from HRCE and MP Braedon Clark and Sackville-Beaver Bank Councillor Billy Gillis.

Councillor Cathy Deagle Gammon, who represents Waverley-Fall River-Musquodoboit Valley, was at the graduation ceremony at Musquodoboit Rural High in the morning. She joined for the afternoon session at LHS graduation.
