School plans carnival
along French theme
On February 20, the
students at Grand Bend
Public School will be taking
advantage of the snow to
hold a “Winter Carnival”.
Although it will not be on the
same scale as the Quebec
Winter Carnival, it will be
on the French theme.
All the students in the
school will be divided into
twelve teams and will rotate
throughout the day on a six
station circuit. Two teams
will be working at an event
at a time and some of the
events will involve competi
tion between the teams. The
events include snow sculp
ture, mural making, snow
shoeing, cross country ski
ing, Eskimo games, story
and poetry writing, and
French games.
According to school prin
cipal Howard Hartle, the
idea for the day came from
Mireille Heinhuis, the
school’s french teacher. The
whole staff worked on the
planning and the teachers
will be running the events.
Ideas for the events came
from the students. “The
reason for some indoor
events is to give the children
a chance to Warm up”, said
Mr. Hartle.
Lunch will also be on the
carnival theme as hot dogs
will be cooked by parent
volunteers and served ‘to. all
the children. Volunteers will
also help run the events.
