| HISTORY/BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: | The opening of a residence for the Sisters of the Assumption in Bonnie Doon in Edmonton was necessary to receive some of the Sisters who left the Académie Assomption in 1972. The Sisters exercised their teaching ministry in the Ecole Picard attended by the students who were used to attend the Académie Assomption. In 1977 the Sisters abandoned the Bonnie Doon rented house to move into another house in Holyrood bought by their Congregation. They continued their educational work in the field of music and undertook missionary work among the poor. In 1986 the Sisters left the Holyrood residence to join the other Sisters living in another residence called Assumption Residence in Edmonton. |
