COLOURS IN THE SKY
Mr. Livermore's class in Science
was busy making homemade kites
for their flight unit. On Friday
afternoon, April 22, they had their
chance to see their inventions in
flight. The day was excellent as far
as the wind goes, and the students
achieved great success, as the sky
was filled with colourful objects.
In Social Studies the students are
working on an Early Indian project.
A TOUCH OF SPRING
Hullett Central's Spring Concert
which was held on Thursday, April
28 was a great success. The
program consisted of the school
band, the senior choir and Soprano,
Soprano, Alto choir, the kinder
garten class, Mrs. Walters Grade
1/2 class, the Grade 6 class and the
Grade 7/8 operetta.
Mrs. Kemp's kindergarten class
put on a well done play about
Spring! Each of the children were
dressed up as a Spring character
and a song was sung about each
character.
A FARMER AND HIS GOATS
Mrs. Walter's Grade 1/2 was also
involved in the spring program held
on Thursday, April 28 at Hullett
Central School.
Their play was about a farmer
and his three goats. When the
farmer took his goats into the field
to graze they didn't want to come
out when it was time to go home.
Several different animals tried to
bribe them into coming out but
they still resisted. Then comes
along a little bumble bee who
chased the three goats back home.
THE KING WHO THOUGHT
HE COULD SING
The Grade 6 put on a play called
The King Who Thought He Could
Sing. In this play the king thought
he could sing so he gathered all the
people and had a rock concert. The
real band played loud so nobody
could hear the king. After the rock
concert he had a very sore throat.
The king ended up just singing in
the bath tub.
IT TAKES A WIZARD
The Grade 7 and 8s had acted out
a play called It Takes a Wizard.
The play was about a king who was
very short and was always made
fun of by the jester and the lone
heckler. The king had set out to
find the sleeping beauty to make
her his queen.
We would like to give a special
thanks to Mrs. Postma who had
spent countless hours making all
the colourful costumes. We would
also like to thank Mrs. Bosman,
Miss Anderson, Mr. Medd, Mr.
Talbot and all of the behind stage
people. With everyone’s participa
tion the play was a big success.

Writing The Citizen report is an
important task in Mrs. Pcrric's
Grade eight class. There arc usually
two people working on the report.
They have to collect information
about events they think the public
would like to hear about. They go
around to various classrooms
asking for their attitudes towards
plays that they are in, or what they
are looking forward to.
The report is written on the
computer. With the computer there
are many advantages. It doesn't
take as long to write. It is easier for
a teacher to check for spelling
because the computer has spell
check. The report is then printed
and faxed to The Citizen for
publication in the paper the
following week.
EARTH DAY
By Vincent Bauer
Earth is to work and to play. Ask
yourself what I can do for the earth.
Rah! The sun is out to warm us.
The tree looks nice and so does the
lawn. Help keep the earth clean.
Day is nice. All day put garbage in
cans. You can do your part for the
earth.
*****
The school's spring concert is
coming to the gym nearest you. It's
all happening here at Brussels
Public on Thursday, May 5. And
you're invited to come and watch
the "Old MacDonald" concert
theme. This play is very unique.
They have a dress code so don't
forget your overalls. There's going
to be singing, dancing, acting, and
much more to see that night.
They're sure to have you laughing
out of your workboots.
The Grade eight class has been
working on artist projects. They
had to pick an artist to write a short
report on. This was as special
report because they had a chance to
choose their own grade. Each grade
had certain requirements and the
more work you had done the better
grade you got.
The requirements for Grade A
and B were that you had to do an
oral report in front of the class,
you had to have an interview, guest
speaker, or a piece of the artist's
work.
The artists have ranged from
famous artists, to friends, family
and the not so well-known artists.
Students have had fun sharing
their artist, and his/her work with
the rest of the class.
Clinton Spring Fair is having its
annual Youth Talent Search on
June 4 at 7 p.m. If you can sing,
dance, play an instrument, do
acrobatics, skip to music, they
would love to sec you there. They
will have a stage, a piano and an
excellent sound system.
