In recent years 'the Foundatior'a emphasis has been on vocational rehabilitation with its network of sheltered employ- ment services across • the prov- ince.

Mr. Kopas spoke on "Human Needs and Personal Development'', Human needs may be divided ALE into two classes, physical and psychological. Physical needs are those necessary to exist; such as food, drink, rest, shelter and warmth. Psychological needs govern the kind of life we live and include the need for affection, the need to belong, change, orienta- tion, adequacy and security. We love to be accepted as a member of agroup. We need to feel we are doing something well. We like to have set goals, a sense of direc- tion and purpose. We develop as we pursue the fulfillment of these needs. Our chief concern is improving the quality of our existence. The speaker illustrated how we may do this with some amusing anecdotes. Books, a hobby, and becoming involved are of great value. Mrs. Daisy Connell thanked. Mr. Kopas for speaking at the meeting. • Grades `7 , $ Last Wedaday Khoo' began after the 'Christmas" bre*. ,The senior room started their. fives.
