Hilda Payne, Phone 242-5018 Mrs. Bertha MacGregor, Phone 262.2025 Parents active in summer too • Nursery had busy year A very busy year at the Hensall Nursery School ended last, month. Twenty- two children participated in many school activities throughout the year in- cluding a restaurant visit, and a trip to the firehall. The nursery school facilities are excellent, being housed in the new arena. The children enjoy the Kinsmen park equipment as they have outside playtime every fine day. In the _winter time, the parking lot provided a few nice sliding hills for the children, so they are able to play outside ail year long. Teacher. Madame Shirley Vaillencourt, had to move' away because of her husband's job transfer in the spring, .but we were very fortunate to see our school year end with the continued qualified help. of a local, experienced teacher. Mrs. Jean McCallough. Three open houses were held during the year to help acquaint the community with the special aspects of a co-op nursery school. The Hensall and District Early Childhood Centre, as it is formally known began last year as a parent participating nursery school which means every family involved in school activities must share responsibility for the run- ning of the school. Few fathers because of work schedules can • help as teacher -assistants although it would add a unique note to the predominantly female world a small child ex- periences. Rather, fathers help be repairing, building and installing equipment that is needed to operate the nursery. . Families in whicll- both -- parents-- Cvoirk outside •the home and who are thinking about nursery school for their child should contact the registrar, Mrs. Barb (Charles) Dalrymple: then - they will be better able to decide if they have enough time to commit to a co-op nursery school. . The final week of school was quite exciting for the children with a class trip to the Pineridge Zoo in Grand Bend. Special arrangements were made to sponsor "Binkly and Doinkle" Puppet Show and two junior classes from the public school joined our pre-school children for an educational and entertaining show about home safety. The nursery school mums have just finished con- tributing their favourite recipes to be printed this summer into a cookbook which will be sold to raise money for the equipment for the new school year. A bake sale at Pinelake Camp, Bayfield, on Satur- day. July 28 will also provide funds necessary to run the - school. Even though the children are out of school, the parents will b_ e_.busy this summer fund raising, cleaning and gathering equipment for the next year. New families are welcome to get involved and register their children for the next school session beginning in September. +annnuuutun The Light Touch By JACK LAVENDER Whot this country really needs is a sanforized dollar. • • • • Vocation time is hue, but it looks like the only expen- sive trips are being made by letters. • • - A bee hos to visit 1000 blossoms to make one tablespoon of honey.
