Grey Central P. S .News
Pen pals from Michigan enjoy a day with students
TRIP TO STANDISH
MICHIGAN
On Monday, May 20 the pen pals
from Michigan came.
Students greeted them in the
gymnasium. That evening we went
bowling at the Molesworth Bowl-
ing Lanes, and had a great time.
The next morning we drove to
school on the bus. Then we drove
to Stratford. We went shopping at
the Festival Mall and had lunch by
the river. We challenged our pen
pals to a game of kickball and lost.
Then we continued on to the
Kitchener Waterloo landfill site.
We had a tour of some of the
facilities. Then we went home on
the bus.
The next day our pen pals drove
back home to Michigan. The
following Wednesday we went to
Michigan. When we got there we
went 10 pin bowling. This turned
out to be quite a challenge to some,
however we all survived. The next
day we drove to Midland, Mich.
We again had lunch by a river.
After we had lunch we went to the
Midland Museum of Ideas. It was
very interesting.
We drove back to Standish and
went shopping. That evening we
were entertained by our host
family.
The next day we drove to the
school, took some group pictures
and said our final sad goodbyes.
We then headed back to Canada.
I think that everyone in the class
who went to Michigan will agree
that we will never forget our
friends and memories of Standish,
Michigan.
HEALTH DAY
By Krista Hunter and
Marian Haller
On Friday, May 28, the primary
grades took part in a health day.
The five grades were split up in
groups and they enjoyed learning
about such things as nutrition,
safety, senses and self-esteem.
They also had Mrs. Robertson, the
school health nurse, who spoke on
proper health care, and Mrs. Betty
Graber who taught about first aid.
Throughout the day they enjoyed
many activities like playing games
outside, playing with a huge
parachute, watching videos, and
making nutritious snacks. At the
end of the day the students ate the
snacks which they had made.
Dungannon
CIBC to close
The scheduled closing of Dun-
gannon CIBC on July 29 has
caused an outcry from the local res-
idents, in particular the Dungannon
Senior Citizen Club.
The opponents to the closing said
that it would be an inconvenience
to people as well as a loss of busi-
ness for the CIBC.
Petitions are being circulated in
Dungannon in order to support
keeping the bank open.
John Harris, District Manager for
CIBC said there were many aspects
to consider beyond the financial
ones. Customer traffic, area growth
and the availability of other local
branches must all be looked at.
Mr. Harris said there are three
other branches in the area that pro-
vide better service so all customers
should be accommodated.
A special demonstration day is
planned so that the clients in Dun-
gannon can be made familiar with
other services that are available.
At present the Dungannon CIBC
is only open Tuesday and Thursday
from 10 to noon and 1 to 3 pm.

GAUSS MATH TEST
By David Proulx
On Tuesday, May 25, 12 grade
seven and eight students
participated in the Gauss math test.
This test is part of a province-wide
competition for students who excel
in mathematics. The test helped the
students to learn better problem
solving techniques. The partici-
pants began preparing for the test
two weeks prior by solving
problems from earlier Gauss math
tests. This challenging test was
enjoyed by all who took part.
By Kristine Hammel
On May 12 and 13, a special
enrichment program was held for
the North Huron schools.
The activity was orienteering.
The participants were from grades
four to six.
The first day was spent at the
East Wawanosh Nature Centre. In
the morning all the participants
were outside with their compasses
orienteering on the Nature Centre.
In the afternoon two guests were
speaking about water and air
navigation.
The next day the participants all
came to Grey Central. There they
did activities in the morning and in
the afternoon made an orienteering
trail themselves.
The participants from Grey
Central were Sarah McLellan and
Kristine Hammel, grade six and
Johnny Maerz, grade five.
TIME CAPSULE OPENED
By Matthew Warner
On Tuesday, May 25, Grey
Central opened a time capsule that
they had made in 1988. There were
a lot of papers, envelopes, and a
video of the talent show from five
years ago. One of the envelopes
had an authentic $1 bill that is
rarely found today. Some of the
papers were stories that children
had written when they were in
lower grades. The video was passed
around to every class which held
some of the student's memories.
- ' We have already started to add to
the time capsule to be opened in the
year 2000.
NORBERT GEORGET
PRESENTATION
By Marion Haller and
Krista Hunter

drinking and driving.

By David Proulx

that day was perfect for outdoor
athletic activity. Participants took
part in events such as high jump,
running long, standing long, and
triple jumps, shot put, and 100 to

a superb effort. Congratulations to

THE "NO" SHOW
On Tuesday, May 11, the grade
seven and eight classes went to
