On Thursday, Jan. 31, teachers in
the Avon-Maitland District School
area had a professional activity day.
Teachers in area schools were
involved in a self-assessment
process to identify their school’s
strengths and recognize areas
needing further growth and
development. Brainstorming these
aspects of their individual schools
will result in continuous
improvement in student learning.
This study is a board initiative
which should better the education
across the district. Each school will
use these facts as a basis for school
improvements.
In a recent column I reported that
we have been blessed with a new
grandchild. Another set of proudgrandparents called to report thatthey, too, have a new grandchild.Kelly and Brette (Dietz) Bovenwelcomed Tyler Adele to theirfamily on Jan. 20. GrandmomHelen Hummel reported that Tylersurprised everyone by arrivingseven weeks premature. Howeverafter a short stay in a Londonhospital, she and mom are quite
comfortable now in Stratford
General Hospital and both are
doing well. Tyler will be a
classmate for our Colton in a few
years.
Although not a resident of the
village, Terry Richmond has spent
every working day for 30 some
years in Londesborough. You know
him from seeing him behind the
post office counter. Moreover Barb
Richmond taught at Hullett school
for a time. Their daughter,
Kimberly and husband, Dave, have
a new son, Jayden Phoenix, born
Jan. 21.
Eli Henry Duke is a first child for
Dave and Erica Baxter of Auburn.
Eli arrived Jan. 25. Living so close
to each other and being part of a
close family, it is likely these twochildren will be great friends. Morechildren for the Sunday School atLondesborough United Church.Recent conversations withvillagers and an overflowingbulletin board at the post officehave suggested that perhaps thevillage needs a “what you can findin the Londesborough area”directory of sorts. What form this
directory might take will depend on
your input.As a result of continuouslychanging the notes on the board Ihave come to recognize just howmany folks are offering extras thatthe rest of the village might benefitfrom. So if you, for example, sell Avonproducts or farm gate items orhobby items, stop by the post officeand offer your thoughts on this idea.
Others may be surprised to learn
freezer and cupboard items andunique gifts can be found close tohome.Londesborough United Churchwill observe the sacrament ofcommunion on Sunday, Feb. 10.Following the morning serviceeveryone is invited to join theSunday school for their annual soupand sandwich luncheon.The senior choir will gather for
practice at 10 a.m. on Feb. 10.

At their Jan. 29 meeting Morris-
Turnberry councillors approved a
motion to investigate purchase of a
new computer program to add
efficiency to the building
department.
Acting chief building official
Terry Kuipers demonstrated the
Prinsys module of the Keystone
Complete software for councillors,
saying it saves time and paperwork.
Nancy Michie, administrator
clerk-treasurer, said she is interested
in looking at the Keystone program
for all the office’s operations when
the municipality must implement an
assets management program
required by the province. Having the
building department using the one
module “would be a good step to
work into it.”
Currently Ashfield-Colborne-
Wawanosh, North Huron and South
Bruce use this system, she said.
Kuipers used the Prinsys module
in his regular work with the Town of
Minto. He said the Ontario-based
company does good work in
customizing the program to meet the
needs of the municipality.
The cost of the program is $7,375
plus the cost of training and data
conversion. There are also ongoing
annual fees of $1,875.
