thankful for. Mrs. Uhler's pupils

of fall".
The girls and boys of Kindergat-
en are learning many new nursery
rhymes. Meanwhile in Grade 1 Ms.

In Kindergarten we asked Chris
tine Seili and Matthew Macintosh
how they felt about school so far.
Matthew finds school is fine. His
favourite pastime in school is play
time. Christine finds that school is
fun, and her favourite pastime is
sleep time. They both enjoy reading
buddies; they like school so far.
The new soccer field is very
helpful to those that like to play
soccer or any other game. The
cross-country people found it easy
to run around. The people of B.P.S.

People
You can't let a little thing like
grand theft auto ruin a vacation,
can you?
Thai's precisely the situation
Ross and Anna Cunningham and
Evelyn and Glen Bray found them
selves in on a recent trip to
Nashville, Tennessee. The joumey
began uneventfully on Thursday,
October 3 when the group departed
from Brussels. They arrived at their
destination the following day at
noon and found a room at the
Knight Inn.
At about 5 a.m. the next morning
Glen awoke and, peeking out the
window, discovered the 1987 Olds
missing. They contacted the police
who eventually recovered the car in
Nashville.
Apparently the thieves had bro
ken the back window and as they
had no keys, tore apart the steering
column, then used a screwdriver to
start it. Evelyn says they had rented
a car to get around during their stay
and managed to see all the sights of
Nashville, including the Grand Ol'
Opry, Opryland, and the General
Jackson Boat Cruise.
They had just bought tickets for
the bus trip home, when the police
notified them that the car had been
found, albeit a little worse for wear.
The thieves, Evelyn says, look vir
tually everything they could, even
the couples' cameras and eyeglass
es.
Ashley Gropp celebrated her
10th birthday on Sunday. Attending
were her parents, sister Nicki,
brother Joshua, brother Jason,
home from the University of Wind
sor for the occasion, Grandparents
Ott from Listowel, Grandma Gropp
from Milverton and her godparents,
Bob and Pal Ott of Kitchener and
Barb and Brian Gropp of Stratford
and cousins, Andrew Ott and Craig
Gropp.
