OTTAWA TRIP
Tuesday, May 6, 'was no ord
Wary:'day for the Grade 8 stud-
ents of •Huron Centennial School.
vve.h0,looked forward to this
day all. year for we were finally
oil .our way to our. nation's capital
Ottawa; .
• ' We travelled by' bus to Stratford
and boarded a train to .travel to
Toronto. For many of us it was
our: `first train ride and a part of
the: trip we enjoyed very much,
even if: it did'seem like a long
way from .Toronto to Ottawa.
There were so many education-
al experiences onour trip, that
we wonder now how we managed
to go so many places and see so
many interesting items in our
short visit. We had an excellent
view of the city of Toronto from
the top of the Toronto Dominion
Centre. While in Ottawa we
were met by our M.P. R.E. Mc •-
Kinley and enjoyed a memor-
able visit to our country's parlia-
ment buildings. What a beautiful
National Arts Centre we have in
Ottawa. The War Museum
brought many aspects of history
alive.before our eyes. A two hour
bus trip of the city showed us
how beautiful our capital is.
Every student was thrilled with
the Museum of Science and Tech.
nology and there was something
for every. student at the Museum
of Natural Sciences and Man.
Our visit to the Aeronautical
Museum showed the history of
aviation.
Finally, I am sure all students
felt our accomodations at the
Chateau Laurier and our refresh-
ing swim in the pool made the
trip complete.
We returned late Thursday
night to the school --a very tired
but happy, and better informed
group of students. What an
enjoyable and educational exp-
erience we had!
