THE Bus (Toys for Homes Everywhere) is making bi-weekly stops at the Belgrave Community Centre, Wednesdays from 1:30 to 2 p.m. If there is enough interest, THE Bus could stay longer. Operated by Rural Response for Health Children, from the Huron Home Childcare and Family Resource Centre in Clinton, the bus is a mobile resource library which provides a variety of toys, books, videos and much more. The aim is to enhance the develop­ mental and intellectual growth of both children and caregivers. The bus will also provide play groups for parents and children. It allows children the opportunity to interact with peers while enjoying quality resources and toys and gives the parents a chance to socialize with other parents and caregivers. Anyone requesting a playgroup should contact THE Bus facilitators either during a visit or by calling 482-1418 or 1-800-561-7450. Students learn to survive at Nature Centre By Nikki Van De Walle And Leanne Mullin The Grade 5/6 and 7/8 classes of East Wawanosh Public School par­ ticipated in an animal survival game at the Wawanosh Nature Centre on Wednesday, Nov. 1. To participate in this challenging game of survival, you need to know how the food chain works. ease, elements, habitat destroyers (humans) (the teachers are usually the humans), and environmentalists (humans). You have to do a lot of running, hiding, and listening. The actual game lasted 45 minutes. There was a lot of explaining which lasted about 45 minutes as well. You don’t have to be a fast runner For the game to work you get sep-to play this game, you just have to have good hearing or good eyesight. The game is sort of like hide and arated into different categories; her­ bivores, omnivores, carnivores, dis­ seek, where if you are on the bottom of the food chain you had to be able to hide, listen, look, and run. If you are on the top of the food chain (a disease, an element, or a human) you had to run a lot more, but you didn’t have to hide from anyone. The environmentalists didn’t have to run, they just had to stand at the cemetery and hand out lives (wooden tags) to the animals (students) who needed one because they were on their last life. Most of the students in Mr. Lobb’s 7/8 class thought it was a great review for the test that was on Thursday, Nov. 2, but both classes thought it was a lot of fun, and enjoyed the break from school work. The game itself was exhausting! Everyone was so tired when they got back that they needed an easy after­ noon. All around it was a good morn­ ing, and everyone had a good time with only a few cuts and bruises. PEOPLE AROUND BELGRAVE Mabel’s Moms had their regular meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 1. Attending were Crystal Agombar, Nicholas and Curtis Weber, Lila Procter and Jessica. They discussed receiving flu shots for public school pupils.
