Walton Public School news
Pupils get reading buddies
Mary and Jim Mann were
greeters at Duffs United Church on
April 1.
After the Call to Worship Linda
McDonald and daughter, Sarah,
read the Lenten Liturgy and Sarah
extinguished another candle. Rev.
Banks acknowledged the beautiful
floral arrangements placed in the
church in memory of Roy William-
son. The daffodil arrangement was
donated to the church by the
Cancer Society.
He announced that there will be a
Maundy Thursday communion
service at 8 p.m. and that Easter
Worship service will be in Walton
at 11:30. There will be a music
evening on April 23 featuring the
Paraguayan harp and Christian
instrumental music with Eduard
and Christine Klassen, as well as
local talent. This event is sponsored
by the UCW.
When the young worshippers
were called forward Jennifer
McClure volunteered to help attach
the felt grapes to the vines on the
Lenten garden trellis. Then Rev.
Banks made note of their Bible
verse for the day.
Paul had said to run the race and
the prize was everlasting life. So
Rev. Banks continued on about
different kinds of prizes. He
brought out a glass framed
memento of his younger days that
was filled with ribbons and badges.
He showed the kids the one that he
was most proud of; the emblem that
proved how the hockey team he
played on won the trophy. The next
item he produced was his Sunday
School certificate and seals.
So the ribbons and badges, etc.
were prizes that were won. The
other was a form of recognition. No
one had to win or lose in order to
get recognized. We don't have to
win anything to earn God's love.
The sermon was called, 'Sur-
passing Worth.'
The UCW will meet Wednesday
People
Congratulations to Gloria Love
who won a walkman from playing
the scrabble game at Lyons in
Seaforth.
John and Ruthie Uyl and Judy
Emmrich went to Toronto on
Saturday to attend the Quartarama,
the largest quarter horse show in
Canada. They especially enjoyed
watching the 'cattle penning.'
There was another fabulous
turnout for the UCW beef luncheon
and card day at Duff's United last
week. This was the last one for this
year and the UCW is Stratford for
the support.
Councillors
seek solution
Continued from page 3
would be very costly and concurred
with Councillor Robbie Lawrie's
suggestion that a meeting be held
between council and Mr. Szarek to
try and find a solution.
"We may not resolve it, but look-
ing at a July 5 booking for an OMB
hearing is getting to the serious
stage. This could be very expen-
sive," Scrimgeour said.
Council appointed Reeve Bailey
and Councillors Scrimgeour and
Ron Ritchie to a committee to
investigate further.
If you live near the school and if
you happened to be outside last
Thursday and Friday you may have
heard a 'jet noise'. Ms Jewitt, the
kindergarten teacher brought her
two-line Stunt Kite to school to
show the children. It has an eight
foot wing span and is flown with a
200 lb. test line.
She explains some of the safety
rules when being around the kite. It
is definitely an adult kite. It is also
a kite that can be steered with the
two lines. It was certainly a kite
that the children will remember.
Reporter Jay Cochrane from
Grade 4 said that after reading a
story about doughnuts, some kids
decided to do a doughnut survey.
They picked five of their favourite
and then went room to room to see
which of the five were chosen to be
the most popular. Well, sprinkle
doughnuts won by a long shot.
Sugar doughnuts came in second
and the least liked was the lemon
sugared doughnut.
Adam Coombs also of Grade 4
said they teamed up with the
kindergartens to be reading
buddies. The Grade 4s will be
reading them all kinds of stories.
In Mrs. Scott's Grade 3 class
students were happy to know that
their earlier prediction that March
came in like a lamb and would go
out like a lion came true.
The class 'is also learning two
new computer games - Mahjongg
(a Chinese counting game) and Tic
Tac Drop (a game played against
the computer).
Ricky Pethick from Grade 2
reported that his class has been
getting into the spring of things by
making 'Pop-up Spring' pictures.
The Grade 1 class was very
excited to have their teacher's aide,
Mrs. Dolmage, bnng in her new
baby. The class had a very special
'gift that they had made themselves
to present to them. The children
had all been given a quilt block on
which they designed and colored
with fabric crayons and then Mrs.
Bennett sewed it all together to
make the baby quilt. They also put
on a magic air show to entertain
their company. They were all
magicians and used ideas about the
properties of air, which they have
been learning about, as part of their
magic.
