sporting events, preparing activi
ties for the pupils, creating
“weird” days, and providing the
school with special extras which
will enrich the school atmosphere.
The students’ council and the Grey
Central pupils are gearing up for a
really awesome year.
Now, dealing with the “what’s
new?” department, Gr. l’s enjoy
ed the delicious subject of learning
the alphabet and discussing traffic
lights. We used the adjective
“delicious” because the Gr l’s
made pretzels to assist them in
learning the alphabet. What a tasty
assistant. “Traffic light” cookies
were made to help the students

ANDSANDYEARL
understand what the traffic light
purposes are. Yummy traffic
lights.
The Gr. 3’s decorated their
classroom with colourful, interest
ing pictures of turkeys for Thanks
giving. “Funny Sentences” were
a nice change in printing for the
students. The current Health topic
is “the five sense.”
Gr. 4 correspondents, Molly
Morton and Wanda Martin inform
ed us of their intriguing studies of
magnets. Although the Gr. 4’s tell
us how pleasant it is to be back in
school with their friends, Gr. 4’s
are a bit disapointed in losing their
classmate Stuart McKay, due to
the fact Stuart is now in Wingham.
Jimmy Straton and Matthew
Eseniski, two Gr. 7 students
seemed gloomy because of all the
