Mrs. Hatchen was my grade 7 teacher at Lord Kitchener School (which was later renamed John Pritchard). She was fair and had a good sense of humor (which she would have needed in order to put up with my younger self, ha ha). I'm glad she had a long and interesting life. - Posted by: Karl Pfeifer (former student) on: Nov 10, 2020

It's been many, many years since I was a pupil of Mrs. Hatchen but I still remember her so fondly! To this day I can still recall how she was so very kind and caring. As a teacher she was absolutely wonderful, fair yet firm. I adored her and I used to shyly approach her after class was over to give her a painting that I had done for her and how she graciously accepted it as if it were not just a painting by a young child but as if it was something precious. I don't doubt that she made many people feel special as that was her beautiful nature. - Posted by: Kim Stoyko (Former student) on: Jan 21, 2014
