Palliative Care wraps up first year At the end of its first full year of operation. Wingham and Area Palliative Care Services is review­ ing the year’s statistics and prepar­ ing for another active year. During 1990, 22 volunteers de­ voted 807 hours to the service, travelling 682 kilometres to mini­ ster to the dying and their care­ givers to be available for the bereaved. The organization serves eight communities in the area, including Lucknow, Teeswater, Belgrave, Brussels, Wroxeter, Gorrie, Fordwich and Wingham. Twenty-nine clients were served during the year, 18 of these terminally ill patients and 11 bereaved. Referrals came from Home Care, the Cancer Society, the hospital, the clergy, doctors and the patient himself or his family. Palliative care is a support system which ministers to the terminally ill patient and loved ones. Trained volunteers are a present help at a time when people are struggling with the realities of death and continue to offer support for family and friends trying to come to terms with the loss. Wingham and Area Palliative Care Services continues to make appeals for funds, so the service may remain operational and effec­ tive. Fund-raising events are being planned for the spring and public awareness will hopefully be heigh­ tened during Palliative Care Week, April 22-27. Anyone wishing more information about this valuable service may call the palliative care office at 357-2720. SPEECHES by Stefan Nichol and Laura Douma For the past few weeks students from grades 4-8 have been prepar­ ing speeches. They presented them to their classes and teachers chose the top three to speak in the auditorium on Feb. 21. The top speakers now continue on to the Legion to speak with Grey Central School. Visitors are welcome to attend. MAGAZINE CAMPAIGN Last Friday afternoon Mr. Don- ders came to talk to us about the magazine campaign. Kids from grades 4-8 have been selling over 140 different magazines. The cam­ paign is now over as of Feb. 19. The money attained from the magazines will go toward class trips and other school events. Thank you for your support of our campaign. HAT DAY Last Friday, Feb. 15 was also hat day at our school. Students wore all kinds of wierd and wonderful hats. If there had been any prizes given, our principal Mr. Kemp would have won for his strange mop hat. The students hope to be able to hold more extra-ordinary days like that. WEATHER DELAYS Because of storm days, bus cancellations and a really hectic schedule of projects, tests, and the like, our news column may seem somewhat like “old news”. We apologize for the delays and hope to give our readers more immediate information in future “Brussels School News” columns. CURLING On Tuesday, February 5 the grade 7/8 class went curling at the B. M. & G. arena. They would like to thank the ladies curling club for teaching them the basics of curling. They would also like to thank the mixed curling club for paying for the ice time. They had a super time and hope to be able to curl again int the near future. VALENTINE’S DAY ACTIVITIES We took a survey of the classes to find out what they did on Valentine’s day. Kindergarten broke a Pinata that held all kinds of candy mixed with peanuts and sunflower seeds. After that they made cards and ate jello jigglers and cookies that Becky McLaughlin distributed to the whole school for the support and cards she got while she was in the hospital. Grade 1 made Valentine booklets and hearts for their mail boxes. In Grade 2 it was Mrs. Clark’s birthday. She is spending it with her family. They will be having birthday cake and other good things. Her class made Valentine’s for moms and dads and for the residents of the nursing home. They were also busy singing and writing stories. Grade 2/3 went to the nursing home and read stories to a friend and sang to them as well. All classes from grades kindergarten to grade 2/3 were involved in Valentine bingo, mak­ ing necklaces, singing, telling stor­ ies, math activities and a scavenger hunt. Grade 3/4 worked at science, math, poetry, art, games and cooking, all tied in with the Valentine’s theme. Grade 4/5 and 5 also did those activities. On their own, grade 4/5 wrote poems and turned them into cards while grade 5 did broken heart art. It was an enjoyable day for everyone with plenty of caring and sharing in the spirit of Valentine’s Day. VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT For the past few months grades 4-8 have been playing volleyball during noon hours. We got togeth­ er a girl’s and boys’ team to go to the North Huron Volleyball Tour­ nament which was to be held on January 31 but was cancelled due to inclement weather. It has since been rescheduled for February 25. The members for the boys are Jason Gauthier, Andy Overholt, Bill Vanbeek, Chris Burkholder, Jason Harris, Mike Dauphin, Jeff Elliott, Mike Illman, Shane Wilson, Jonathan Trollope, Kent Brittain, Andrew Exel, and Assistant Coach Jamie Nesbitt. The girls’ team is Rebecca Dauphin, Heather Somers, Jennifer Machan, Laura Douma, Sherry Tyerman, Kim Mulvey, Lesley Stretton, Janice Jacklin, Tyler Seeds, Stacy Hahn, Wendy Thompson, Victoria Rich­ ards, Sarah McArter, Lorie-Ann Black and Lanette Todd. The teams would like to thank their coaches Mrs. Lindsay and Mr. Teall for their hard work and great patience in attempting to shape us up for the tournament.
