TOUCH THE SKY
by Sarah Rouw and
Jennifer Stadelmann
On April 29, the grade
students made sled kites. The kites
were made of tyvek, spines, wind
ers, string and six tabs. When the
wind blows the kite, it makes the
shape of a sled. The students chose
all colours of the rainbow to
decorate their kites. After the kites
were assembled, the children and
Mrs. Little went to a field behind
Mrs. Cronin’s house to try out their
creations.
Mrs. Little saw the kites when
she attended an Energy Confer
ence in London on February. She
then ordered materials from the
Kortright Conservation Area which
is supplied with kite supplies from
Touch the Sky in Toronto.

Little and then was responsible for
preparing and teaching lessons.
Miss Vanderlinde wishes to

subjects are math, reading and
language arts. Miss Vanderlinde
said that people were very friendly
and made her feel welcome here.
ADVERTISING ARTISTS
by Tina Burkholder
For the past two weeks, 10
students have been working on a
special project for The Citizen. The
Advertising Manager, Mr. Wil
liams arranged the event. The
students were twinned with a client
and their job was to make up an
advertisement. All of the work was
done entirely by themselves. The
students visited their clients to get
any information that they wanted in
their ad. After the ad was prepar
ed, they returned to the client to
have it approved.
Those involved were Abigail
Ramirez, Becky Morrison from
Grade 4; Wesley Wilson and Jason
McDougall, Grade 5; Tina Burk
holder, Erica Clark, Grade 6; John
Ramirez, Stephanie Lentz, Grade
7; and Sarah Allan and Michael
McNichol from Grade 8.
Please look at this week’s edition
of The Citizen for their handiwork.
TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY
CELEBRATION
by Heidi Scrimgeour and
Danielle McDougall
On May 3, a Senior Citizen’s Day
was held at the Blyth Public School
as part of the Twentieth Anniver
sary celebration of the Huron
Board of Education. Invitations
were made by the Grade 5 students
and were distributed in person to
the guests.
At one o’clock the senior citizens
arrived and were seated in the
auditorium. Each primary grade
sang several numbers and then
read a favourite story to one of the
guests.
As well, there were musical
performances by the junior and
senior choirs, and a group of grade
3 girls playing ukeleles. Board
Chairman, John Jewitt was present
and spoke to the guests.
A light lunch, prepared by the
grade 8 girls, was served by the
grade 8 students.
Here's how Grandma
Jeremy Van Amersfoort shows his grandma, Femme Van Amersfoort just how well he can read while Pauline
Blok is checking out the rest of the action at Senior’s Day in Blyth Public School. The students sang songs, read
books and served ref reshments to the seniors to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Huron Board of Education.
PICASSO - “WATCH OUT!”
by Nikki Snell and Steph Lentz
In the warm sunshine, on April
25 and 26, the grade 7 and 8
students were tie-dyeing T-shirts
(and other interesting apparel) on
the lawn at B.P.S. Some of the
finished articles will be part of the
display on India at the Professional
Development Day in Exeter on May
5.
Mrs. Hulley, the art teacher,
engineered the session. We
brought an article from home, and
by blending red, blue, and yellow
dye, created masterpieces of
peach, purple, pink and brown that
would equal those of Picasso.
Everyone had fun and was
extremely happy with the results.
