This year’s adult ed graduation in Boissevain was not only a farewell for the students, but also for their longtime mentor.

There were 40 students who graduated with their high school diplomas from the Adult Learning Centres in Boissevain, Killarney and Swan Lake in 2026, with a strong number attending their ceremony at the Living Hope Community Church in Boissevain on June 11. This was one of the biggest graduating classes in the centre’s history. It was a big moment for them, as their hard work was rewarded with their passport to a better future.
