The Lucknow Sentinel, 1987-04-15, Page 11This week's a winner for school teams, band This week has been a winning week for students at LCPS. The girls' basketball team won the regional tournament and the boys won the runners-up banner. Needless to say, there was incredible excitement in the school as both teams look forward to competing in the county tournament. - Also, the band put on an incredible per- formance at the Bruce County Music Night in Port Elgin on Thursday. They also travelled to Goderich to play in the parade. Kindergarten What an exciting time the Kindergarten students had this week! Easter stories, Easter words and Easter crafts are all over the classroom. The morning Kindergarten was lucky and received a visit from OPP Constable Lloyd. He showed the students his uniform and everyone got to sit in his police car. He even turned on his flashing light and noisy siren for the class. The class hopes Jamie Jones is feeling better after getting his tonsils out Wednesday. Grade 1 Grade 1 had fun with watching their seeds sprout and grow, They entered them in the science fair. Congratulations to the three winners, Sean Lougheed, who ex- perimented, with paper airplanes, Jonathon MacKinnon, who knew all about meat, and Shane Pettiplace, with his well- built zoo. Everyone else who worked hard and participated so well deserves credit too. The class has also been watching their tree branches open up their leaf buds. The students touched the pollen in their Easter Lily. The class is also learning about long vowels, an& writing "Clifford" books at their centres. Julie Gollan is the "Special Me" this week. Grade 2 The Grade 2 class had two special guests in the room this week. The first special guest came because of "National Wildlife Week". Ernie, Edith Greer's pet skunk, spent some time with the Grade 2's. They found out some interesting facts about skunks, and had fun making books about Ernie. The second special guest was Heather, Mrs. Creighton's prize English Setter. Heather is a very beautiful show dog and has won many ribbons, for her perfor- mances. The students were very excited to have Heather in the class since they are doing doggie activities in their reading unit. Thank -you to both visitors for sharing their pets with the students. Grade 3 Grade 3 has had an exciting time as they placed 18 eggs in a warm, moist incubator on Friday, April 3. They hope to have good luck and have 18 baby chicks hatch. The primary wing has an "egg-cellent" work display, and everyone is working hard to get their work on display. Grade 4 Grade 4 has begun to study Australia. It's interesting as it is in the South and Eastern Hemisphere while Canada is in the North and Western Hemispheres. The class was fortunate enough to have Mr. Floyd Stanley, the principal of the Ripley schools, as a guest speaker. He recently returned from a trip to the land "down under" with his family. His slides and Australian stories were most entertaining. Grade 5 The Grade 5 class enjoyed "Perfor- mance Day" last Friday. The math quizzes went well on Thursday. The band people were all excited about going to the band concert. Grade 6 On Friday, many of the Grade 6 students LCPS enjoyed the pizza they mad in Family Studies. They also had a busy week preparing for the band cocne in Port Elgin and planning their part in th Easter assembly. They're also making "Mon Autobfographie" poster in French. Grade 7 This has been a very busy week for the students in Grade 7 as many of them were involved in the Music Festival held in Port Elgin, and many were participants in the , basketball tournament. Final plans for the field trip to the Bruce County Outdoor Education Centre have been completed. The class wishes to thank Mrs. Jean Hallam and Mrs. Violet Rac- zkevi for offering to come with the class. Your interest is appreciated. Grade 8 Constable. Lloyd, an OPP officer, visited the Gade 8 classroom to discuss the pro- blems which are 'created when people become involved withrdrugs. He talked about the legal as well as the health problems drug -users face. In addi- tion, a display of the various types of drugs was explained. The students were then able to ask questions which Constable Lloyd answered. He emphasized the fact that peer pressure is a tremendous in- fluence on whether young people get in- volved with drugs. He also stressed that the students had some very important decisions to 'make about drugs and he hoped their verdict would be "NO". Family Studies Grade 6 wrapped up the week by developing difficult nutrition questions to test their classmates in next week's Nutri- tion Quizzmo Tournament. Grade 7's have been preparing for their Easter visit to the nursing home. The Grade 8's have been visiting the Kindergarten room and are discovering how clever and interesting the school's youngest students are.
