OCHS stood for Oshawa Catholic High School. It is now known as Paul Dwyer High School. It is still located at 700 Stevenson Road North in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. These images are from my photography archives, and they are intended as a blast from the past. I have just digitized these images from dusty negatives that have not seen the light in a pile of years. In addition, other archive photos have been added from contributions by graduates and teachers of the high school.
When I first started school (at St. Joseph's Primary) on Simcoe Street North in Oshawa, all of the nuns looked like the above.
Then for a few years, (but not many), the habit was streamlined and modifed, but it was still a study in black and white.
Finally in the 1970's, the nuns went completely to street clothes.
