THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 24, 2002. PAGE 7.
I would like to take a moment to
thank two stellar Ethel community
members for their contributions last
week to our little hamlet.
Charlene Brubacher donated some
of her time to rake and tidy up the
garden and area surrounding the
mailboxes in the centre of town.
When I saw Charlene pull up and
This week the office at Grey
Central school would like to remind
everyone that Friday, April 26 is a
PA Day.
A special thanks needs to be
conveyed to Charlie and Catherine
Tetpstra for donating 50 pounds of
ham that was enjoyed during the
Easter dinner at Grey Central.
Mme. Colquhoun's classes of
Grade 6, 7 and 8 have just finished
cheese and baked good orders. The
profits from these orders will be for
their Ottawa trip.
In French, some of the classes, like
the Grade 6s, have been doing
quizzes and fun games like lotto and
sofa.
Mrs. Scott's class is learning about
the letter X. They made space ships
and aliens. They are doing measuring
in math.
Mrs. Bowler's kindergarten class
is learning about the letter X. They
are also making sun catchers.
Miss Hill's class is starting the unit
It's Alive. Tori Cardiff's birthday
was on Monday, April 15.
This week Mr. Parks' class was
making a story about a monkey and
alligator in writing.
Last Wednesday, Mrs. Hemingway
had a new baby girl, Chloe. This past
week, her class went to Slice of
Huron in Seaforth with their new
teacher, Mrs. McKeon.
Swimming at the new indoor pool
in Wingham has been the Grade 4s
highlight for the last couple weeks.
Mrs. Murray's Grade 4s have taken
up dancing again. Their dances
include polka, waltz and square
dancing. Don't think that they have
start raking I thought to myself
"Now that's great!"
The tlowerbed is somewhat of a
community project initiated, I
believe, by Isobel Pearson. I have
seen many ladies tending to and
donating perennials for the garden.
Thanks again Charlene for giving
it a spring clean up
I would also like to thank Dennis
Schul for contributing his time,
dismantling the boards from the
Ethel skating rink. I was determined
to get those boards down thisi,
particular Wednesday morning. In
the time I was there my infant
daughter rarely stopped crying, my
youngest son ventured off to check
out the beautiful cow on the
Schlumpf lawn (imbeknownst to me)
and both the rechargeable batteries
all fun and no work though. they
have also just written a social studies
test on the province Saskatchewan.
In Mr. Walker's Grade 4/5 class,
the kids are playing dice games in
math.
On Tuesday, April 16, Grades 5, 6,
7 and 8 went to see the K-W
Symphony at the Centre of the
Square. Paige Keifer says "It was
really cool." Kalem Hammermuler
concurs, reporting, "It was really
good, really, really good!"
The class is excited about learning
how' to write in Greek. In art, they
are making shadow pictures of when
the sun sets.
The Grade 6s have been solving
algebra problems. They are finding
mystery numbers and solving
algebra equations.
On Thursday morning, students
attended a workshop entitled The
Great Circle of Life at Brussels
Public School. Aboriginal artist
Shannon Thunderbird conducted this
interactive workshop which focused
on the theme Understanding Human
Diversity. The students really
enjoyed the native stories told by
Ms. Thunderbird.
This was sponsored by the Avon
Maitland Foundation for Enriching
Education and the Mary Kuepfer
Trust Fund.
On Friday, Harvey Clarke was
back in the Grade 6 classroom to
assist students with the square dance
they are preparing for the upcoming
performance of the musical Old
MacDonald Had a Farm. This week,
Mr. Clarke brought along some old
neckties for the girls who are
for the cordless drill drained!
I herded everyone back home for
lunch, battery recharging and a refill
of sanity but, alas, I never made it
back to thoseboards! As I passed the
fireball on my way to a meeting in
Brussels later that day-there was Mr.
Schul stacking the last of the boards!
Ah, my heart did sing at the sight!
Hearfelt thanks to you both.
Girl Guides and Pathfinders were
out selling cookies to Ethel residents
on Wednesday. Janet Mitchell, one
of the area leaders, mentioned that
all told we purchased about five
cases of cookies (that's about 60
boxes!). Anyone wanting -more
cookies can .get in touch with their
neighbourhood Girl Guide or
Pathfinder.
The Grey Twp. firefighters
dancing as gentlemen. Having these
girls wear ties cut down a bit of
confusion.
Last Friday, there were eight tables
in play at the euchre party held at the
Cranbrook Hall hosted by Graeme,
Mary and Ken MacDonald.
Scores were as follows: high lady,
Linda Stevens; high man,- Tom
Stevens; low lady, Velma
Sleightholm; low man, Stewart
Musgrove; most lone hands, Helen
Gallop, Eileen Mann; travelling lone

The next euchre party at the
Cranbrook Hall will be held on May
3 at 8 p.m.
received the much anticipated
extrication equipment this past week
and spent some time testing it out on
Saturday.
I have wanted for some time to
mention about a story we read to our
children. It's about a wonderful
farmer by the name of Jeremiah who
can do most anything - whittle
sacks, mend fences, call birds and
whip up the best buttermilk pancakes
in the county. He has twinkling eyes
and shimmery silver hair.
One day Jeremiah told his wife
that he can do all these things but he
really wants to learn to read. "So
learn", she said.
And Jeremiah did.
As this is a community column I
would like to explain that within our
communities are people who assist
adults with reading, writing and
math skills through organizations
like the Avon Maitland School
Board's Literacy/Numeracy project.
(482-7948). Sometimes a goal
seems so out of reach until we
realize our friends, neighbours and
communities members are doing it
also. I have the great privilege of
working with a woman whose goal is
to better her reading and writing
skills. We meet once or twice a
week, wherever is convenient. She is
just like any of us - a wife, mother
and grandmother. She doesn't look
particularly different and nothing
about her stands her apart in a crowd.
I am honoured to learn from her
about strength, perseverance and
personal goals. Perhaps you might
be reading this aloud to, or know of
a "Jeremiah", in our community.
Pass it on.
Have a great week!
