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.
