The Newburgh Academy

The Academy, January 1st, 2013, in 3D anaglyph
Gail & I welcomed in the New Year here at the old high school in Newburgh Ontario, called the Academy, by ringing the school bell up in the cuppola at midnight with friends Les Jones & Judy Rauliuk. This beautiful limestone building, erected in 1853, was gutted by fire and rebuilt in 1872.

Les & Judy have preserved much of the history of the place with old books, desks and school photographs decorating the hallways. The school motto Labor Omnia Vincit was still respected when it eventually closed its doors in 1956.

Use a pair of red/blue 3D glasses to see the image in depth.
