Tony Smyth writes (November 2011):
"I got back from Ottawa at the beginning of the week and thought I’d share these photos with The Pelicans. On Tuesday Oct 25th I met up with Mike O’Callaghan for breakfast, someone I had not seen in almost 25 years. Afterwards we took a nostalgic trip to Vanier, 300, Ave. Pères Blancs, to be precise. The following photos are from that visit. |

formerly the ‘new wing’ of the White Fathers’ house.

Inside the community centre is a small museum on the history of Vanier which Mike and visited. Several of the following are photos of WF-related exhibits in the museum.

I’m sure this is remembered fondly by many former students at Eastview.
