GRADE TWO’S LIBRARY TRIP
by Erica Clark and Tina Burkholder
Mrs. Brigham, the Branch
librarian for the Blyth Library,
invited the grade two’s to the
library for Ontario Public Library
Week. When they arrived, she
gave them a first class tour of the
library, explaining where things
wereandwhatthelibraryhadto
offer. They did a puzzle and Mrs.
Brigham answered any questions.
She read th'em a story. Each
child who wished to have a library
card was given one. Before
leaving, treats of cookies and juice
were enjoyed. Soon it was time to
return to school. Where did the
time go?
The grade two’s would like to
thank Mrs. Brigham for inviting
them to the Blyth library. They all
agreed they had a super time.

Anglican Church beef supper held at Blyth Memorial Hall Thursday
night. As usual the event drew a large crowd.
HIKE TO THE ARCH
by Chrystal Cucksey and Sarah
Allan
Last Wednesday the Grade One
and Two classes went on a hiking
trip to “The Arch.” We interview
ed some children to get their
opinion of the hike.
Brent and Justin Sauve and Joey
Schmidt reported they saw black
birds, orioles and cardinals. They
stepped in many holes and one just
happened to be occupied by a
porcupine. Different types of
berries were also seen.
Tammy Walker and Angie Wal
den described the hike this way:
“As we walked to the arch we went
up a huge, big hill. Under a tree we
found a kingfisher’s nest and we
saw a creek with a whole bunch of
gooky things in it. Wesmelleda
porcupine hole. We found a poison
ivy plant and one with acid rain on
it. We sang, “She Sat in the
Lilacs,” all the way home.
