Inside Howick Central
Skating in the
Howick Community Centre
"Anyone for a skate?" was one
of the comments I heard during
my visit at the Howick
Community Centre. Nearly as
soon as the ice was in, Miss Amos
and Mr. Livermore, our physical
Education teachers, were
planning their skating program.
The centre is rented to the
school for a small amount of
money. During my stay I heard
Mr. Livermore mention a saying,
"You must be able to take off and
on skates as well on the left foot
as on the right."
For those who don't have
skates, there are skates on sale or
/students can just borrow them
from the school. We must
remember to put names on all
equipment- brought to school. '

Listowel District Secondary
School Concert
Howick Central Junior Choir
attended a concert given by the
Listowel District Secondary
School Choir at Central Huron
Secondary School in Clinton. This
concert was financed with funds
realized at two music Nights held
in Huron County last spring. The
purpose of this concert was for
enjoyment but perhaps more
important to stimulate interest in
choir work in the schools of Huron
County.
Their conductor is Mr. Gerald
Fcgan, with piano
accompaniment by Mrs.Marlinc
Fegan. In 1972 this fantastic choir
went to Ireland where they
captured two first place awards.
Last year they went to Toronto to
sing at the Kiwanis Festival.
There, they took four of the top
awards. There are 110 people in
this choir from grades 11, 12, 13.
They practise every week.
At the concert on Wednesday,
December 4th, they sang many
songs including "Taste of
Honey", "When Age and Youth
Unite" (Part 3), also "Fella from
Fortune". We certainly enjoyed
the privilege of hearing this
group.

Surprise Assembly
On Monday, December 2, the
students of Howick Central
gathered for an assembly to
present academic awards not
received from last year. The lucky
students, achieving 5 or more A's
if on their report cards last June
received a crest and a point
toward their school letter and a
citizenship award, This award
was handed out by our vice-
principal, Mr. Cober, who
beamed at the number of
students who came forward for
their awards. We hope to see as
good a turnout in the 1974-75
school year. Certainly the
coincidence of this surprise
assembly with our first term
report cards serves as a reminder.
By Ann Gibson
Interviews
On the afternoons of Dec. 2nd,
4th, and 6th, and on the evening
of Dec. 3rd, the parents of all
Howick Central School students
will be coming to the school for
personal interviews with their
childrens' teachers and to pick up
their children's report cards.Mr.
Robertson asked for volunteers to
stay and serve coffee, help guide
parents and look after the
babysitting. The teachers hope
this meeting will help the children
solve their problems through
co-operation and better
understanding.
By Gary Douglas
White Elephant Sale
On Tuesday, December 10th, at
lunch hour, Miss Amos' class is
going to have a rummage sale.
This is another measure to raise
money for our trip to Ottawa.
Any students may bring in
articles but they must be useable.
In preparation for this we are
going to make posters and put
them up in the school.
All students and teachers are
invited!
