(Photo by Joanne Buchanan) Colborne Central parents and leachers group meet Colborne Centtal parents and teachers meet on Monday,; November 26 for their se- cond Home and School meeting. Cheryl Gilbert from the Huron County Health NIA spoke on "The Myths of Alcohol". A follow up meeting is planned for the new year on ht,w the abuse of alcohol affects children. An informal discussion was enjoyed during a coffee and Christmas cookie break. The President, Mrs. Phyllis Scott, then called the business meeting to order. Mrs. Teresa Feagan read the minutes of the first meeting. She reviewed some of the objec- tives of the group which include better com- munications between parents and teachers; speakers who can shed light on the com- plicated art of parenting in the 1980s; and support for student council projects. A discussion was held on topics for future meetings. Some ideas included nutrition in school lunches; how illness and death affect children; child abuse; children's privacy; a family .social; and money raising projects. It was decided to hold meetings the last Monday of each month and to send notices to parents the Thursday before each meeting. There will be no meeting in December. Lucky draw winners were Laurie O'Neill who won a Christmas door wreath and Mrs., Judy Vanstone who won a Christmas door swag. Mrs. Jean Imanse won a bird feeder as a door prize. A suggestion box was placed in the school hallway, outside the library. It is hoped that parents who find it difficult to verbalize their ideas or concerns will take the time to write their thoughts and place them in the box for further consideration. ,Conservation education not J' u st outdoor recreation The most important element of con- servation education is "to develop an envir- nomentally sound conservation ethic" said the professor. He also cautioned that the authority has to first decide if it is teaching conservation or outdoor education. The U of T professor said it takes time to educate a generation of children and one of the most effective methods is teaching the teachers - which he does. However, for the authority he suggested MVCA staff provide an education ex- perience for teachers. This, he said, follows what MVCA has already accomplished. The authority and the teachers should work together, he said. This would involve the preparation of a program where teachers would teach certain subjects in the classroom prior to going to the education centre. At the fall meeting, the authority commit- ted itself to continuing its education efforts at Wawanosh for 1985. As well, MVCA plans to negotiate a cost- sharing formula with area school boards for maintenance and operation costs at Wawanosh Valley. Conservation education is not outdoor recreation says the chairman of the Science education department at the University of Toronto. Prof. William Andrews passed this infor- mation on at the Maitland Valley Con- servation Authority's fall meeting. Prof. An- drews does have roots in the Maitland watershed. Besides owning land in Hullett Township, a brother and son farm in the Clinton area. Speaking to the authority as it is in the early stages of establishing an "outdoor education centre" at Wawanosh Valley Con- servation Area, of. Andrews said he didn't want to see take the route of other authorities. ° ' "There's a tendency to move to outdoor recreation," said the professor. out, Although he is not against outdoor recrea- tion, he stressed it should not be called con- servation education. He pointed out discrepencies in con- servation thinking. The professor said he almost got shot in the Sarotoga Swamp in Huron County. He called it a conservation area where things don't get conserved. ANNOUNCEMENT F.J.S. PEARCE LTD. ONTARIO LAND SURVEYOR Peter G. Moreton MR.
