Crowding around the Friendship Bench
Last year two benches, like the one being mobbed by students above, were placed at Hullett
Central Public School to encourage students to reach out to each other. Now, the benches
seem to be serving their purpose as friends are getting together and chatting on and around
them. Back row, from left: Sadie Squires, Chandler Bromley, Ashley Mielhause and Evie Reid.
Front row, from left: Elianne Kreuger, Shayna Hunking and Heidi Badley. (Denny Scott photo)
I trust all who know her will be
keeping Darlene Shobbrook in their
thoughts and prayers. She remains
in Victoria Hospital in London while
the doctors assess her condition and
decide how best to treat her. She has
been in hospital for about three
weeks and would surely appreciate a
card to boost her spirits.
This is a new year and I thought I
would start something new for this
space, the background behind some
familiar songs. To celebrate a new
year and a new start, I have chosen
the familiar song of New Year's Eve,
"Auld Lang Syne", written by one of
Scotland's greatest poets.
In 1788, Robert Burns penned
new lyrics for a traditional folk
song. In this song, Burns wonders if
old friends and old times should be
remembered or should one
concentrate on the future. Burns
decided as we would, that the past
and future are both important. The
Scottish tradition is to join hands to
sing "Auld Lang Syne". That way
the song is a symbol of inclusion.
So through 2016 let's all reach out
in our lives to include all races,
backgrounds and beliefs.
The Londesborough UCW will
begin a new year on Jan. 18. The
meeting will begin with
refreshments at 7 p.m.
Business/program will begin at 7:30.
New President Helen Lobb will
preside.
Volunteers have poked in dark
corners of storage areas at the
church and have identified items the
church no longer needs. Perhaps
they have found something you
might like or could use. Check in the
church basement or contact one of
the trustees.
