PAGE 27. 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. DAIRY PRINCESS VISITS STUDENTS AT GREY By Jessie Lee Schwartz On Tuesday, May 4, the Dairy Princess visited Grey Central.

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.

Participants took part in events such as high jump, running long, standing long, and triple jumps, shot put, and 100 to 1500 meter races. All students gave a superb effort.
