Members of the 1st Blyth Cub troop got some special enter-
tainment at last week's meeting with the arrival of B.B. Bop.
The clown shows her 'book of clown etiquette'. The purpose
of her visit was to give the Cubs some idea of what being a
clown means as the theme for this year's District camp is
Clowns. For the Beavers the theme is Circus and the Scouts
is Carnival.

On June 14 at 9:15 a.m. the school
council is holding its annual
fundraising walkathon. The goal for
this year's fundraiser is to earn
money for additional playground
equipment. This will be added into
the area from which the slide, rocket
and dome climber were removed last
year.
Volunteers are needed to help with
the assembly and installation of four
benches on BPS property as part of
the yard enhancement. If you can
help with this project please call
Marg Steele at 526-7446. The lum-
ber will be ready cut and require
assembly and installation only.
The school has been awarded
monies to help enhance two pro-
grams for the intermediate and jun-
ior students. With a $200 grant from
The Foundation for Enriching
Education the Grade 6 to 8 classes
were able to purchase five different
contemporary novel sets which have
just been published and nominated
for the Red Maple Awards. The stu-
dents went onto the internet to talk
about the books with other students
and also to discuss with the authors
of the books themselves.
On April 23 the students were able
to cast their votes for their favourite
books. The books remain as new
resources for the intermediate
grades.
Ms Barnett's class also was award-
ed a small project grant for the pur-
chase of a class set of new up-to-date
atlases for the class.
This past month Ms Macdonald
and Mrs. Laurie attended a day-long
symposium in Walkerton on the
Virtues Project. A committee will
work on how this will be implement-
ed at Blyth Public School for
September; however, the staff
decided to begin right away at work-
ing specifically on the first strategy
of the Virtues Project — that of speak-
ing the language of the virtues and
calling children to demonstrate the
virtues.
For instance, rather than remark-
ing on rude behaviour, the staff will
attempt to ask the student to demon-
strate respect towards another, rather
than saying the class is too noisy, the
teacher will call the children to be
more peaceful.
For more information, the website
on the Virtues Project is located at
www. virtuesproject.com
With the appreciation of the fol-
lowing volunteers Erlene
June Patterson, Donna Govier,
Brenda Burkholder, Mary Lou
Stewart, Kathy Bromley, Mae
Ritchie, Donna Hamm, Doreen
Siertsema, Rosie Lee, Ann Hulzebos
and Janice Peters approximately
$1,200 was raised through the annu-
al cancer campaign in the village of
Blyth.
In the Year of the Volunteer their
efforts will be recognized that not
only can cancer be beaten, it will be
beaten.
