IMPACTS
By Heather Douma
On Monday the grade sevens and
eights went to F. E. Madill for a
drinking and driving presentation
given by Norbert Georget, a Saska-
toon, Saskatchewan ambulance
attendant. Mr. Georget showed
some slides that he had taken at
accident scenes.
On Wednesday, May 19, Paul
Carroll, the new Director of
Education for Huron County took
some of the trustees to the school to
see an excellent model of a primary
Language Arts program. After
spending the morning in Ms
Anonech's room the trustees came
to the staff room and over coffee
and cake I got to interview Mrs.
Baumgarten and Mr. Garniss. Here
are some of the questions I asked
them and their answers:
What is your job as a trustee?
Brussels
People
The May meeting of Melville
W.M.S. was held at the home of
Thelma Cardiff. Leona Armstrong
was the leader and opened the
meeting with a poem on "Mother".
Hymns were sung accompanied by
Leona at the key board.
The scripture from Proverbs 31,
verses 10 - 33 was read by Helen
Elliott. A poem "If you Wonder"
was read in unison. Readings on
"Today" and "A Good Woman"
were read by Ruby Steiss.
A paper on "God's Earth in
Bombay India" was read by Leona.
President Helen Elliott took over
the business part of the meeting.
Helen thanked Thelma for having
the meeting and Leona for leading.
The secretary and treasurer's
reports were given and accepted.
Members were reminded to save
their I.G.A. slips. The roll call was
answered with a verse containing
the word "crown". Helen Elliott
read about "firm tired footing".
A lovely lunch was served by the
hostess assisted by Isobel Gibson
and Leona Armstrong and a social
time enjoyed.
We set directions for the school
system and represent the students.
We also represent the townships
and reflect their ideas and concerns.
What changes do you see
happening in the next couple of
years?
The schools are going to have to
be tighter with supplies and finding
a way to pay for everything is
going to be a big problem.
How much time does being a
trustee take up?
It takes about one day a week and
evenings. Plus we're on committees
and we represent the board at
functions.
What do you like best about your
job?
The best things about our job are
visiting the schools and meeting the
students.
I wasn't able to interview Mr.
Carroll in person but he faxed his
answers to the school.
What advice would you give
grade eight graduates?
I would advise grade eight
graduates to learn how to cope with
change. There will be profound
change in their lifetime as
adolescents and adults in Canada.
These changes will be the result of
drastic adjustments in our economy
and in our social structures. Coping
with change in a flexible manner
will be essential.
How do you think education will
change in the 21st century?
Education will occur in many
locations away from the school.
Learning will happen in real-life
classrooms in the home,
community, and the workplace.
Technology will play a major role
in making this possible. A new-
found relevance for school
programs will emerge as schooling
is adjusted to respond to change in
the 21st Century.
Why did-you want to become the
director of education?
I wanted to become director of
education to assist students and
their teachers prepare for the future.
As the key educational leader I can
work with others to set a course for
growth and development for all the
partners in the education system
including students and their
parents, teachers and support staff,
elected officials and the broader
community of interested persons in
business, industry and other service
agencies. The 1990s will be a
challenging but exciting time for all
of us.
On Tuesday, May 18 the Junior
Choir, led by Mrs. Joan Perrie,
performed at the B. M. & G.
Community Centre for the Meals
on Wheels luncheon. Students from
Mr. Teall's, Mrs. Cousins's, and
Mr. Riley's classes participated.
They sang "Don't Kill the World"
and pieces from the Spring Concert
including the theme song "Music
Moves Me".
Mrs. Perrie said that the audience
was very appreciative of the choir
and the music.
