East Wawanosh School news
Students look forward to `Grungy Day'
GRADE ONE
Grade one had a great holiday
and were happy to be back at
school. They are recording the
growth of an amaryllis. They are
working hard at learning addition
facts to 10. Winter activities round
out a busy month ahead.
GRADE FIVE/SIX
By all reports everyone in Room
10 had a great holiday over
Christmas and New Years. Now, it
is time to get back to work on
multiplying, dividing and decimals
in math. There was a math pre-test
on multiplying of decimals. For
some people it was good news, but
for others it means more practice.
Over half the class celebrated the
first week back with perfect
spelling dictation.
GRADES TWO/THREE
Shawna Walker, Zoey Onn,
Jennifer Brigham and
Abigail Ramirez
The grade two/three class is
collecting boxes to make dioramas.
The inside will be a scene from
their favourite books.
On Friday they fingerpainted,
which will be used as the
background of their dioramas.
They'll be making figures and
props from items from home,
plasticine and paper. It's fun.
GRADE SIX
Mr. Livermore's grade six class is
busy researching information for a
European research project. Each
student selected a European
country to research. On one
occasion hey visited the Blyth
library. On another they had a guest
speaker, Marion Zim, come in to
speak about her travels to different
parts of Europe.
GRADE EIGHT
The grade eight class is currently
working on science experiments
Grade five has been completing
"Junk Food" projects while grade
six has been involved in the V.I.P.
program with Constable Marshall
from the Goderich O.P.P.
detachment.
GRADE SIX/SEVEN
On Monday, Jan. 11, students
wrote a language test. On Thursday
of the same week, they had a
history test. In Geography, they are
working on brochures of a city of
our choice.
Kim Johnston says, "I have so
much information!" (18 pages in a
book!)
Kendra Folkard says "Red Deer,
Alberta is so hard to find
information for. I hardly have any!"
The brochures are due Jan. 18.
Art was exciting this week as
using bean plants. The class planted
two seeds in each pot and after a
while pulled the weakest ones out.
Then they each chose an
experiment i.e. giving varying
amounts of water, fertilizer.
VOLLEYBALL
By Zoellyn Kara Onn
The action has been thrilling, the
moments are waiting for a point to
be scored. The Funkies serve the
ball, the Pros bump it back.
Recently at B.P.S. intramural
volleyball has been taking place.
The Wedgies won the champion-
ship game.
Also at B.P.S. the girls and boys
have been trying out for the teams
to go to St. Joseph's and the
tournament at Clinton High School.
The teams go to Clinton on Feb. 1.
Girls go to St. Joe's on Saturday,
Jan. 30, and the boys go to St. Joe's
on Feb. 6.
On Jan. 9 at St. Joseph's again
there was a basketball free throw.
Congratulations to all the partici-
pants and especially the people
students used black and white
paper to make negative/positive
designs.
GRADE EIGHT
In English grade eights are
working on a brief unit on mass
media: specifically just two aspects
— advertising and violence. Each
student either cut out a magazine
and or video-taped a commercial,
then led a class discussion on its
merits, techniques and intended
audience.
Next, they will examine violence
in television and movies.
SPECIAL EVENTS
On Wednesday, Jan. 13 the
Students' Council had a special
assembly to announce some
upcoming events at the school.
Thursday was Mr. Personality Day
who placed first: Kim Lee,
Christina Black and Toni
Richmond.
Council sets salaries
Continued from page 8
Councillor Elliott and Reeve
Doug Fraser voted against the
motion but Councillors John
Duskocy, Deputy-Reeve Clem
McLellan and Wayne Riley voted
for it, effectively carrying the
motion.
Clerk Nancy Michie was autho-
rized to contact various ratepayers
suggested by council, to sit on the
Brussels Community Centre Board.
Council set its expense allow-
ances which are identical to last
years.
The reeve will receive $80 per
meeting while the deputy reeve and
councillors will receive $75 per
meeting. At designated meetings,
council members receive $80 per
day plus expenses. Council mem-
bers and board members will
receive $85 for board meetings.
when the boys tried to persuade the
girls into talking to them so they
could receive the girls' bracelets.
The boy with the most bracelets
became Mr. Personality for this
year.
On Friday, the girls charmed the
bracelets away from the boys so
they could become Miss
Personality. Jan. 29 will be
"Grungy Day", when the students
may dress as `grungy' as they wish
with greasy hair — but they must
remember to "smell good".
Student Council hopes that these
special events will build school
spirit and maybe take away some of
the January blahs.
