OPEN HOUSE
By Dane Corneil
The Open House held last
Wednesday night was a huge
success. Many parents took the
opportunity to visit the classrooms,
meet the staff and see the students’
work. Everyone enjoyed the 17
dozen delicious hot dogs which
were barbecued and served by the
Grade 8 students and their parents.
At 6:30 p.m. an information
meeting was held in the
gymnasium to inform the parents
about the elections for the SAC
Committee for this school year.
The students and staff would like
to thank everyone who came to
support this event.
Each day in Ontario, a young
person displays courage in the face
of adversity, performs an heroic act
or offers a simple gesture of
kindness.
It's up to you to put these young
heroes in the spotlight. /
Nominations are now being
accepted for the 1997 Ontario
Junior Citizen of the Year Awards
program, sponsored by this news
paper and the Ontario Community
Newspapers Association (OCNA).
Since 1981, the program has paid
tribute to young people between the
ages of six and 18.
Some are recognized for the
service they perform in their
communities or for their heroic
responses in times of crisis.
Others display courage and
tenacity as they strive to overcome
the challenges of living with a
disability or illness. Or they may
exemplify the qualities and
characteristics of a "good kid."
Up to 12 people are chosen to
receive the award, presented by
Ontario's Lieutenant Governor
during a special ceremony held in
Toronto. Recipients also participate
in a reception and group portrait
held at Queen's Park, and receive
$200 and a Junior Citizen pin.
This isn't a competition. There
are no winners or losers because
each nominee - and there are
hundreds each year - is a "star" in
his or her own right. All nominees
