Last Tuesday, the Walton school students had a great time skating at the Seaforth Arena. On Wednesday each class had a Valentine's party. The kindergarten class made individual jellos for their party and did fingerpainting using their thumbprints to make hearts. They were also quite excited to receive letters from their penpals from Turnberry Central School. The Grade 2s made a love quilt with pictures of things that made them feel good. It seems that food was the main source for creating happy feelings. They put their desks into a heart shape to really get into the Valentine spirit. Then each child was given half of a heart. When they found the person with the matching half that was their partner for the day's activities. They played pin the heart on Cupid and Cupid Bingo. The Grade 3s did a bit of desk cleaning this week and found quite a few items that had been missing for a while. Friday was also pay day. Mrs. Griffiths was the bank manager and she had six student tellers to train. This is a first for the class because usually only adults have the teller jobs. The Valentine's dance at the Walton Hall was a great success with people coming from Grand Bend, Staffa and surrounding area to dance to 'Home Made Jam'. The band consisted of Karl MacNaugh- ton, his brother Paul and their mother, Noreen MacNaughton, Mr. and Mrs. DeLong from St. Marys and Jim Swan also from St. Marys, who helped out with the singing.
