It's Volunteer Week
Volunteers can be found at work in all
segments of our rural communities. They
are active in voluntary and self-help
organizations, and they work for not-for-
profit services such as schools and
hospitals.
Volunteers form the basis for communi-
ty life as they provide thousands of ser-
vices to citizens in Ontario. National
Volunteer Week, April 17-23, is just one op-
portunity to recognize the many
volunteers in Ontario.
There are over one million volunteers
active in Ontario every year. Many of
these people donate their time within the
rural community. As members of
organizations, 4-H leaders, organizing
local fairs and helping to conduct pro-
grams, the volunteers provide countless
hours of service.
FARM REPORT
[BRUCE COUNTY OMAF]
During Volunteer Week in Ontario, ac-
tivities will focus public attention on the
contributions of a wide variety of
volunteers and publicly thank them for
their contributions. The celebration also
encourages all citizens to become more ac-
tively involved in meeting needs in the
rural community.
For more information on how you can
volunteer, contact Brita Ball, Rural
Organization Specialist, Ontario Ministry
of Agriculture and Food, Walkerton,
Ontario.
Brookside held an Enrichment Program
on April 6-8. There were five different
schools here, both boys and girls from
grade 3 and 4. The program was on
"Mysteries of the Deep." They made
Islands from different materials such as
plasticine, paint tissue paper, salt, flour,
tape, shells, pipecleaners and more. The
students had interesting islands including
a Mermaid Island, Holiday Island and an
Austumn Island. For the second and third
day, they did research on a topic about the
sea. On the third day they presented their
work.
Some comments from the students
were:
Jason Lobb from Holmesville Public
School said that hp had fun.
Tammy Middlecamp from Brookside
said that she enjoyed the activities.
Robbie Bogie of Colborne Central School
added that he really wanted to come to the
program.
The children in Miss Jewitt's Grade 1
class have been surprised by two visits
from baby animals. Last week, Mr.
Graham showed a baby lamb. This week
Mr, McQuail brought in a baby goat. The
children were very excited about leading
the baby goat around the room on a leash.
They learned about what the baby animals
eat and how they only have teeth on the
bottom of their mouth. Thanks to Mr. Mc -
Quail and Mr. Graham.
The Dinosaur Den has had the pleasure
of a"three day visit from Mrs. Webster this
week. She taught us how to make wonder-
ful bread dough people (We made
ourselves!) and then we learned how to
write an essay (! !) We each wrote a three
paragraph essay to tell how we made the
dough people. We're sorry to be losing
Serene Fox, and wish her happiness in her
new home in Blyth. Stuart Hackett is our
Special Me this week.
Mrs. Ottewell's class had big eyes on
Tuesday when Susan Bieman brought in a
