Claude Norville was a 71  73 Mausican, my year group.  A retired Principal from Canada, he was a Monitor in  the CAC of the SEA under the Peoples Partnership and used to attend meetings and training sessions, flying in with our Tobago colleagues. May he also rest in peace.

Claude was my second year at Mausica. He lived in the Quarry street area - Behind the Bridge - at some time, because he knew my sister who lived in the Area.

Here are some pictures of him at our reunions.

Fwd: Zoom get together

2021-JUN-03-1022Hrs

Hi Mausica family,

We had our 4th Zoom get together on May 29 and it was a step up.  The Zoom 101 lesson given by Ben Alleyne-Stephens was well received

The film Holy Angels produced by Selwyn Jacob was indeed timely.  The in-depth discussion that followed was informative and Selwyn was very knowledgeable about his craft.

It was karmic that Canadian news headlines of Thursday May 27 reported the discovery of 215 Indgenous children's bodies buried at the site of a school similar to the one in the film.  This issue generated a lot of discussion.

We were fortunate to have in our midst Irma Cambridge-Chadee's son Hayden, who is a high school teacher with the Durham Catholic School Board.  Hayden informed us that his Board has introduced Indigenous studies and he was passionate about his involvement with equity and inclusion in education.

Here is feedback from Magnell Williams-Robinson about the session:

"I was happy to hear your voices even if I didn’t see you.

I felt that Saturday’s experience was very meaningful.  As we see and hear of the evil that was meted out to the Indigenous children both in the documentary and the media in Canada these past few days, we can’t help but think of the negative experiences of all indigenous peoples over the world, as well as all visible minorities, and of course that these things are ongoing in some form or fashion even today!

However, thank God our better Spirits prevail.  We have to focus on the positive while trying to ensure that everyone around us is treated with dignity.

Thank you Selwyn for all you have done and are doing to bring awareness of some of the atrocities that have and are still ongoing."

It is gratifying that we can get together and enjoy one another's company after all these years.  I look forward to at least 2 hours of smiles and warm, fuzzy feelings that  I experience at each meeting.

Thanks Tom (Conrad Thomas) for allowing us to use your Zoom membership - we cannot do it without you

Wow - 21 Mausicans were present, 1 guest and a few grand children popped in.

Looking forward to the next Zoom, tentative July 31 - THEME - casual lime.
