Blyth PS news
Students attend Literacy Festival
KINDERGARTEN
On Friday morning both
kindergarten classes with their
teachers and some parents took part
in the Literacy Festival in Clinton.
When they returned they ate a
picnic lunch at the Blyth Lions
Park where many more parents
were able to join them.
In the afternoon everyone went
on the bus to Burgsma's Zoo where
they saw zebras, wallabies, pea-
cocks, ostriches, flamingos, llamas,
many kinds of ducks and geese, a
camel and many more animals.
The day was enjoyed by all.
LOCAL WEATHER READER
VISITS GRADE 5/6
AT BLYTH P.S.
Mr. Boyd Taylor, a local weather
reader took time out of his busy
schedule to explain how and what
he monitors as a local weather
reader for Environment Canada. He
brought in his rain gadge, the
minimum and maximum
thermometer, a snow stick, and a
weather vane. He takes readings
two times per day as do 1600 other
readers in Canada.
He explained to us some things
about the full moon and how large
fronts move and meet.
We appreciate what these
volunteers do for us in order to
understand and monitor our
weather.
OUR TRIP TO CASA LOMA,
MEDIEVAL TIMES AND
ONTARIO PLACE
By Jenny Ritchie, Grade 5
The Grade 5s from Blyth PS
visited Casa Loma which was built
in 1911. Sir Henry owned Casa
Loma for less than nine years. Then
it was turned into a hotel. Later it
was turned into a tourist attraction.
We enjoyed the gardens, the
large rooms and beautiful decor but
we students especially liked the
tunnels to the stables and the
towers.
The students became lords and
ladies at Medieval Times at
Exhibition Place in Toronto. The
Grade 5s liked eating with their
fingers for the feast.
We watched knights, horses, and
serfs try unbelievable stunts for a
tournament challenge. The fights
were very realistic and exciting. the
music and light show was
fascinating. We tried our best to
cheer our knight to victory.
The Grade 5s also went to
Ontario Place. They had a blast!
Most people said that the Wild
Wilderness ride was very exciting.
Students also enjoyed the Mega
Maze, Lego Land and the Nintendo
Pod.
The students were very tired after
their trip especially since the
journey ended up being later than
planned because of bus problems
and one medical concern.
The students will never forget
this exciting worthwhile learning
experience.
