HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1975-06-12, Page 12One afternoon, we went on a tour through our hospital. The nurses showed us many things. We saw a sick baby; wheelchairs; beds that/go up and down; x-ray machine and table; T. V. ; boy with a broken arm; elevator; drug- store room; operating room; ' patients sick in bed; bathrooms,; switchboard; switchboard operator and the laundry. The nurses gave us chocolate milk and cookies. We won'fbe afraid if we ' have to, go into the hopsital now, because we know they will all help to make us better. Little Green Sprouts Did you know that they - all started small? Some were larger than others, some were smaller than others, some were fat and some were skinny. :We planted bean seeds and grass in egg cartons, radishes, sweet corn, • tmatoes, oats, carrots, even al) Ifalfa_and clover on a soaking wet sponge. Our bean seeds swelled up 3 times in size befoi.e they split their skins. Long roots and hair roots, sterns and leaves all grew quickly. Now they are 108 cm., 60 cm., and 52 cm., high. Our grass is so tall that it needs cutting. We also rooted something. Our rooted onion has been sprouting, the potatoes have many roots and now are growing leaves. We tried to root carrot tops but they didn't work. Some of us brought begonias, patience and coleus cuttings. They all have taken root. We have planted them in flower pots. About half the class has tried some of their own seed and plant experiments at home. Seventeen of us planted our own gardens. By Grade 3 Students FieldDay In May the primary side had their field day. There were 10 teams with ; captains and there were ,first, ' second, and third ribbons to be given away to the teams. Team 10 was over all winn er, team 1 was second and team 7 was third.

JERRY & THE ANIMALS - Jerry Storey, a grade 8 pupil at Seaforth Public )School, poses beside a display case in the zoological section of the Royal Ontario Museum. The grade seven and eight pupils from S.P.S. participated in the day long Field Trip to Toronto on May 29th. (Photo by Stephen Travaglione) Kindergarten tours hospital If you asked me what first came to my mind when yeti say "Toronto" I would probably say "smog, skyscrapers and traffic- jams". When we entered the city, one of the first things I noticed was the pollution. Smog came from the factories and dead fish floated on the surface of the water. One other thing I noticed quite readily was that our Ibus somehow ended up in the wrong lane (4 traffic. We were slowly moving• ahead while everyone else was driving right by. Finally we managed to get going again, AFter this first paragraph, don't readily assume that the city is all bad because there are some nice things to see ther First we had our boat tour of the waterfront. 'his was an informative and, interesting part of our trip. There are many industries centred around the harbour including a recycling plant. There was also an old tug boat which isn't being used anymore. The boats docked in Long Jump. - Brian McGavin, Mark McLlwain, Bruce Godkin. .

SPS class says Toronto nice but we wouldn't live there afternoon. The next day we had the other part of our field day. Many of us enjoyed' Mr. Dress-up the overload relay, the obstacle-race, and the sack race. We all tried hard but not everyone can win. By Janice Cairns Choir On Wednesday; May 14 the senior choir of Seaforth went to Exeter. They sang four songs "Blow'in in the Wind", and . "Good Morning Starshine". . The other two numbers were sung with all the other choirs there. They were "Gau Dea Au Mus" and"Something to Sing About". On Tuesday, May 13 the choir went to Exeter to practise. A bus took them to and from Exeter both times. The choir was lead by Miss Fermer Santos the Public School music teacher. Mrs. Henderson accompanied the choir for their two pieces: Parents were . invited to the Exeter school on Wednesday evening to hear them sing. By Anne Ribey the harbour came from many different countries such as RusSia Scandinavia, Japan and China, The scenery looking outto the island was very nice-looking. After our boat tour we went out to the islands. After touring around them, we went on shore. Snake island had many attractions including Centreville, which is an amusement - park, a haunted lighthouse and if you wanted a tour of the island you could rent a bicycle. In Centreville there is everything from an antique car ride to a horror house. Next was our walking tour downtown Toronto. During this I often , stopped to count the . number of stories in many of the buildings. The highest one 1, bothered to count was 55 stories high. Boy, I sure wouldn't want to be one of Toronto's many window washers. In the next part of our tour we went to the .Kensington Market. The people display fresh fruit, vegetables, live pigs, live chickens and even clothing. They are bought by the shoppers and passers-by. Op this particular day the market seemed to be one of the more quiet parts of the city. The most fascinating part of our trip had to be the Royal Ontario Museum. We learned a lot of things there, including what it feels like to ride in an elevator! It makes you wonder how they ever managed to piece together the bones of a prehistoric creature. Toronto has many sights to see and different things to experience,' I certainly wouldn't mind going back again sometime if I had the chance. All in all Toronto is a nice place to Visit but I wouldn't want to live there! By Pia Marcussen Grade 5 Assembly On June 27 students from Kindergarten to Grade 6 gathered in the gym to be entertained by 5P, Mrs. Reynold's room. The assembly was started by the playing of 0 Canada by Lynn Dodds, the Lord's Prayer led by Jackie Schenck and a Bible Story read by Jill Muir. Lynn Dodds then played the song "Everything • is Beautiful". Various groups in the class then danced to the music of Jiffy Mixer, Greensleeves and the Virginia' Reel. Two girls, - Sandra Canipbell and Margeriet Knetsch did some quick stepping ); for the, audience- t Two pantomimes .were then presented. One Was the classes' impression of a typewriter and, the other was the classes' impres- sion of a day at the ball game. The assembly was concluded with a display of gymnastic stunts and was enjoyed by all. Grade 5M Assembly Tuesday, May 6, we the grade 5M had our assembly. Our assembly Was mostly about the citcus. We had a hard time getting ready but maybe it didn't 1- turn out so bad after all., I hope everyone enjoyed it.

The Blyth Summer Festival will be aided by grants from The Ontario Arts Council and Experience '75. A' campaign to raise additional funds will be initiated in the region. Field day results reported from SP (By Mabel Turnbull) Rev. Ure Stewart came for the devotionals this week after quite a long absence. He chose John 15 vs.12 - 17 and the subject was "Love". "Love without works is dead. Mary washed Jesus' feet while some in the company complained of the waste," he said. He pointed out that a mothei sacrifices all for her child. Christ sacrificed his title for love of his people. "Greater love hath no •Kilbarchan Notes man than when he lays down -his life for a friend", he said. Mr. Stewart brought along some slides showing the beauty of the autumn colours. Some 'of the scenes were in the north and othqs were of our town. Th' meeting closed with prayer and the Lord's Prayer in unison. Mr. Stewart also played some recordings, he had taped, including a solo by Paul Hartman of Mt. Fprest "The King is Coming". Remember •
