The deadline is now over. Hopefully, this program will be offered again next year. Mrs. MacDonald and Mrs. Collins' grade two class had two visitors last week. Maureen Collins came on Tuesday and made homemade bread and buns. She showed ns how to mix the ingredients and knead the dough. We watched the yeast work as the dough rose. We each made a bun which we watched cook. Boy did they smell and taste good! We even made homemade butter to put on our rolls. On Thursday, Judy Snobelen, Troy's Mom, visited the classroom. She brought a grinder, soldering iron, flux, glass cutter and some glass. She showed us how she makes stained glass ornaments. She made a pret- ty red apple for us to see. We all had a chance to use a glass cutter. We found it hard to cut through the glass and tap it gently so it would break where we made the cut. Mrs. Snobelen had many pretty stained glass or- naments to show us. Thank you Mrs. Collins and Mrs. Snobelen. Now we appreciate the work and time it took the pioneers and others to make bread and stained glass decorations. Mess Concert `Kids are Music' The Junior Choir spent two enjoyable evenings last week on Wed. and Thurs., May 25 and 26 performing in the 'Kids are Music' concert. The concert was held in the Kincardine Presbyterian Church. Along with our choir, the choirs from Huron Heights, W.E. Thompson, Elgin Market and Ripley District Schools performed.

From our school four teachers joined the choir, Mr. Stanley, Mme. Ledoux, Mrs. J. MacDonald and Mrs. Ellis. This teacher's choir was an en- joyable part of the Concert.

Grade Four Field Trip On Tues., May 24 the pupils from Mrs. Peter- baugh's grade four class along with eight mothers, Mr. Stanley, and Mrs. Peter- baugh participated in a field trip to Black Creek Pioneer Village and Toronto Interna- tional Airport. At the, village we were given a two-hour guided tour. The children ex- perienced first-hand what life was like over a hundred years ago. At the airport, Mrs. Stanley, a stewardess with Air Canada, arranged for us to board a 747 Air Canada jet. This was the first time that many of the pupils had seen the inside of a jumbo jet. We climbed to the top of the parking building to view the arrival and departure of many planes from various airlines. On the way home the highlight was supper at Mac - Donald's in Orangeville. We would like to thank our chaperones, Mrs. Stanley, our capable bus -driver, and all our classmates who bought hot-dogs, for making this day enjoyable and pro- fitable, Grade 4 to 6 Orientation to Ripley District School Due to the fact that our present grade 4, 5 and 6 students will be at R.D.S. in September, we are planning an orientation session at R.D.S. for those students, June 20-22.
