EXETER — Last week at South Huron was just cool.
We had the pleasure of hearing motivational speak-
er DynaMike speak to the students about bullying.
The presentation started off with an amazing display
of sword juggling. That's right, I said
sword juggling — with the possibility
of the swords just falling right
through DynaMike and killing him,
but fortunately, that didn't happen
at all.
Mike had a positive message,
though — that bullying is wrong. He
spoke about how we can all lend a
hand to helping eliminate bullying in
our school. He spoke about the neg-
ative effects of bullying and the posi-
tive aspects of just being someone's
friend and giving them a smile every
day.
Coming up today is the Music Department's Annual
Spring Concert! It will include performances by the
Grade 9 band, Intermediate Concert band, Senior
Concert band, Black Jazz band and Choir. Songs will
be performed that the bands have been practicing
since September. They will also be performing these
songs next week at the Musicfest Regionals in
London.
Coming events:
Wed., Feb. 23 • Music Department's Spring Concert
• Boys basketball
Thurs., Feb. 24 • Girls volleyball • Girls hockey

Waterway safety
AUSABLE BAYFIELD -
Tobogganing, skating and
winter walks down by the
water are some of the
activities children love to
do during March Break.
However, local water-
courses can be extremely
dangerous this time of
year.
Rivers, creeks, streams
and ditches may seem
safe with the colder tem-
peratures experienced in
January, but it only takes
a couple of mild winter
days to change that.
Dozens of fatalities occur
in Ontario each year
because of those who take
unnecessary risks around
water.
Matt Redmond,
Conservation Education
Specialist of the Ausable
Bayfie1dGonservation
Authority (ABCA) is visit-
ing local schools to pre-
sent the Spring Water
Awareness Program to
students from kinder-
garten to Grade 8.
The program covers a
number of spring hazards
such as thin ice, flooding,
slippery stream banks and
hypothermia to list a few,
states Redmond.
The program has pre-
sentations, demonstra-
tions, games and activity
sheets directed towards
primary, junior and inter-
mediate students.
In the hour-long junior
and intermediate pro-
grams, students can learn
about making safe deci-
sions during spring thaw
along with some informa-
tion on floods and flood
forecasting.
The primary grades
receive a similar message
through a short story and
games.
Education is the key to
keeping children safe and
away from dangerous
waterways, said
Redmond.
To book the Spring
Water Awareness
Program at no cost in
your local school, contact
the ABCA at 235-2610 or

mond@abca. on. ca.
Springtime tree planting season coming
AUSABLE BAYFIELD -
Even though winter is still
evident, the Ausable
Bayfield Conservation
Authority (ABCA) is gear-
ing up for the popular
springtree planting pro-
gram.
The final day to order
for this season is Feb. 28
with trees arriving in mid
April, said Kathy Hodgins,
ABCA Land Stewardship
Specialist.
Reforestation is one of
the most visible achieve-
ments of the ABCA's long-
standing history in pre-
serving, protecting,
improving the natural
landscape.
Since the 1970's, the
ABCA has been selling
seedlings, shrubs and
larger native trees to
landowners for wind-
break and erosion control
projects.
Trees offer benefits to
the environment as a
source of food and shel-
ter, filtering air pollutants,
habitat for birds and ani-
mals, protecting soil,
water conservation and
absorbing carbon dioxide
to produce oxygen.
There are grants avail-
able for specific projects
to improve water quality
orincrease wildlife habitat
such as planting buffer
strips or creating corri-
dors.
If you want to do your
part and move the cur-
rent 13 per cent forest
cover towards the target
of 20 per cent,contact
your municipal office or
the ABCA at 235-2610
before Feb. 28 for an
order form or grant infor-
mation.
