Former school principal shares advice for students at start of new school year

2 September 2026

Bruce Hamilton has enjoyed a lifetime of teaching, music and memories

At 90 years young, Bruce Hamilton has a lifetime of stories to share — from his days growing up on a farm and attending a one-room rural school to spending approximately 35 years helping shape the lives of students as a teacher and principal.

Born in North York, Bruce says he thoroughly enjoyed his career in education.

“I enjoyed it,” he says with a smile from his room at Helen Henderson Care Centre, where he has been a long-term care resident for the past few years. “The kids always had a few tough questions about life and always tried to give them the best answers.”

Bruce believes his own upbringing helped him understand and connect with students from a variety of backgrounds. Raised on a farm, he attended a small, one-room rural school — an experience that gave him an appreciation for the different circumstances and experiences that shape young people.

When he wasn't busy at school, Bruce had another passion: music.

A fan of the classic sounds of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, Bruce enjoyed singing their songs and continues to share his love of music with others. In fact, when Bruce speaks about his life at Helen Henderson Care Centre on September 17, he plans to perform one of Sinatra's most memorable songs, My Way.

Bruce says he enjoys living at Helen Henderson Care Centre and appreciates the care he receives.

As a new school year gets underway this September, Bruce has some advice for today's students: enjoy your time in school because it will come to an end sooner than you think.

Looking back on his own long and rewarding career, Bruce knows just how quickly the years can pass.

From the classroom to the stage, Bruce Hamilton's story is one of service, music, memories and a life well lived — and he's still happy to share a song or two along the way.
