"Doug Ward and The Tavern Trio" Huron-Perth board queries interest Concerned about paying int- erest on money borrowed from the bank, Trustee Howard Shantz, Stratford, told hi. fellow mem- bers of the Huron-Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board at a meeting in Seaforth Tuesday that the board should request each municipality to pay its school levy four times a year rather than the two pay- ments now made by most mun- icipalities. Mr. Shantz said Stratford ratepayers pay their taxes in four instalments. Chairm an of the board, James Morris, Stratford, agreed: "We're entitled to the money and I think we should collect it." Mr. Morris suggested that Jack Lane, Business Adminis- trator for the board who was not at the meeting, should be asked to bring in a report at the next meeting on "how much it is costing us by not collect- ing the taxes four times a year and .the regulations covering the payment of the levy." NeittrMr. Shantz nor Mr. Morris agreed with the sugges- tion that the separate school board should follow the policy of the public school boards in accepting the levy twice yearly from those municipalities who collect taxes in one or two yearly payments. Mr. Shantz had another sug- gestion for the board to consider. He asked if the board should be considering the, vacant convent of St. Joseph's parish in Strat- ford as a board office in view of the possibility that the pres- ent board office inSea.forth would not be large enough soon for its needs. anization committee when the two-county board was formed in 1968. Mr. Shantz is to in- vestigate the availability of the convent. John McCarroll, physical education consultant for the board, presented a summary of his program in the nineteen board schools. He explained that in the program of studies ten per cent of school time is suggested for physical and health education. This amounts to about half an hour per day but most schools are programmed for two forty minute periods each week and a period of Health in the senior level, while in the Grades I to 6 at least three half hour per- iods per week should be devoted to activity lessons with addition- al time allotted to Health Edu- cation. Mr. McCarroll used a movie he has made to demonstrate to the board members one of the tumbling and climbing classes as an example of the activities carried out in the school term program, which includes touch football, floor hockey, swimming, skating, ice hockey, basketball, volleyball, tumbling, soccer and softball type activities, running and jumping, rhythmic activities and folk and creative dance and Health Education.
