The northern part of the county has had such prograrrws in place for a while, but it was not until this year that the students in the southern part of the county could en- joy the same benefits. Sohdan-said the McCurdy School was choosen for the location of the facility simply -on the basis that the former air force base school had the necessary room to house the equip- ment, and its location close to highway 4 made it geographically accessible. Industrial arts teacher Harry Brooks is pleased with his room full of brand new equipment and he jok- ed that it was a far cry from his previously portable work bench which arts he wheeled from class to class. The shop, which focuses on the working of wood and plastics, cost about $30,000 Aside. from - McCurdy school students, grades seven and eight are bused in from Hensall, Zurich, Usborne, Exeter, and Stephen Central Public Schools. The days of stereotyping are long .• gone as the girls happily chisel away on lathes and- the boys eagerly grease pans to go in the oven. The McCurdy School is holding an open house on Wednesday September 30, 7-8:30 p.m. so that all parents who wish to view the school or the new facilities are welcome to attend.
