This past week the daises at
Brookside have been carrying on an
integrated study of the newspaper.
Class sets of the London Free Press
were made available to the
students each day. Work in all
subjects was linked 'to the material
found in newspapers. We feel that,
as a result, students will read the
paper with more interest and
understanding. Two weeks from
this Thursday some junior class-
rooms are planning visits to the
Goderich Signal Star • and Mrs.
Keller of the Star staff will visit our
school, talk to the students and
give them an opportunity to ask
questions.
Over the past couple of weeks
students at Brookside have been
taking part in speak-offs in the
rooms in preparation for the Public
Speaking Contest in the auditorium
on Friday, February 25. Winners in
the Grades', I-IV division were in
Grade 1 Michael Pentland, Jean
McWhinney; Grade 2 David Reed,
John Vandervelde; Grade 3 Vicki
Pentland, Christine Gibson with
Vicki Hackett and Jeff Gibson tied
for 3rd.. Grade 4 Paul Strong,
Margaret McWhinney and Marilyn
Jamieson tied for second.

March 4 are Grades 5 - 6 Karen
Beecroft with Gordon Jamieson as
