Message from Minister of Education It seems particularly appropriate that the organizers of this year's Education Week have chosen the theme "Dare to Dream". By dreaming, we expand our horizons and experiences; we move beyond our everday realities to new possibilities. And isn't that what education does? It opens the doors to learning; it is the key to the realms of curiosity, knowledge and imagination. As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Education Week, it is also fitting that our theme includes a challenge for tomorrow. It is a dare to the people of this province, whether they be students, parents or educators, to build on the strengths of to- day's educational system to ensure that it continues to be accessible to all Ontarians and'is relevant to the changing demands of the future. Those demands will become increasing- ly diverse. The educational process is already a life-long experience that goes beyond formal schooling. Adults are seek- ing upgrading skills at the same time that more students are considering the oppor- tunities of a co-operative education that combines classroom learning with world - of -work experiences. I invite all Ontarians to attend the special events and displays taking place this week throughdut the province to see the expanding role of education in Ontario. I would also like to thank those who have worked to make this celebration of educa- tion a success. We have in Ontario a strong educational tradition built upon a partnership among all community members. Let us take steps this week, and through the year to come, to strengthen this partnership and encourage our students to strive for their dreams. Chris Ward, Minister. Julie Cleland: "It is fun outside at recess time.' Nathan Rivest: "I liked going to the library." Tom Symes: "I like going to gym class." Tim Visser: "It is fun, to play soccer and floor hockey." Jamie Furness: "I like printing and spelling." Cherie Conley: "I like playing outdoors with my friends at recess." Newspaper Club At our school we have a newspaper club. Our first meeting was on Monday, March 21, 1988. We started talking about a newspaper and what should go in it! Then our principal, Mr. Pike started calling out ads, and you would put up your hand if you wanted that ad. You could also work in pairs. After you got the ad you wanted, you would go downtown and see if they wanted an ad from you. You asked them how many units they wanted, and if they wanted anything special in their ads. The units were 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12. After they told you what unit size they wanted, you would report that to Mr. Pike. After that was set- tled Mr. Pike came m to our rooms, to give our class four CERTAIN ads the classroom had to draw up for the paper. Then Mr. Pike would pick the BEST ads' to go in the paper. Other than drawing up ads, you could also write a report for the paper, such as, newspaper club, new teachers, skipping club, cross country etc., and they will be in this paper too! Finally the newspaper is finished that was A LOT of fun! So, if it wasn't for the NEWSPAPER CLUB you wouldn't be reading this paper right now!!! Amy Austin, Grade 5. Prinicpal's remarks The students and staff of Lucknow Cen- tral are pleased to present to you m the following pages, a mini history of our year. The ads that you see within these pages are all L.C.P.S. originals designed by our students for local businesses. We would like to thank these people • for their cooperation and support. A special thanks must go to Pat and the staff at the Sentinel for their patience and encouragement. I enjoy Education Week, as a chance to pause, and reflect over the joys of teaching, learning and sharing together. Each year, our school lives become so much more than just reading and writing. Our days are filled with numerous, numerous activities to enhance our children's emotions, social and academic life. I hope that as you read our mini history, you, too, will remember fondly, your school days. The theme for Education Week this year is dare to dream. Since this year's kindergartens will graduate in the 21st century, my dream is that these students will receive the basis for a vibrant, fulfill- ing life.
