Miss Amos' Concert
On Friday, February 14, 1975,
Room 15, Miss Amos' class, put
on a Valentine Assembly. It was
on the true meaning of
Valentine's Day. All the students
that were in the play were in
special ballet outfits.The students
were dressed as different types of
chocolates. Susan Edgar was the
narrator while Peggy Schneider
played the piano. When Peggy
played the piano, the students
would start ballet dancing.
Sandra Carson was the wife and
mother of two children. Sandra
was named after a 'chocolate bar
:.ailed "Sweet Marie". Her
husband was Roger Murray and
his name was "O'Henry". The
children were Laurel Dane as
13aby Ruth and Allister Kreller. as
E'Claire. Nancy Fisher played the
Queen of Hearts to whom
everyone took their problems.
The play was very humourous and
,:njoyable. I am sure that it was
enjoyed by most of the students
because af ter it was over and the
curtain was pulled, the students
clapped for approximately five
minutes. The play was written
and directed by Miss Amos.

Winners of the Chocolate
bar Contest
Last Friday, Mr. Cober
announced the winners of the
:hocolate bar selling contest.
There were two-eighteen by
twelve inch, seven pound
chocolate bars for the winners.
One bar was given to the room
who sold the most one dollar
chocolate bars, and one to
whoever won the draw. Room 16
won the class chocolate bar, and
Valerie Wright won the draw, For
the draw the sellers who sold five
- one dollar chocolate bars were
able to enter one ticket in the
draw. Mr.Cober asked a small
student to pick a ticket from the
box. He then announced that
Valerie Wright haciwon the seven
pounder. Room 16 shared half of
the big chocolate bar with the
next highest which was Room 9.
The students of Room 16 joked
about Valerie winning the seven
pound chocolate bar. They said
that after she eats the chocolate
bar she will be big and fat
because she is quite slim. But I
heard she was going to save it for
her birthday party.

From side-lined Basketball
to Floor Hockey
• We have been, for the last two
months playing Side-lined
Basketball in our House League
program.The results are: Red
came in first with 7 wins, 1 loss.
Then Blue with 4 wins, 4 losses,
Green 3 wins, 4 losses, and
Orange • 1 win, 6 losses.
On February 17, 1975, the
Floor hockey season began. Floor
hockey can be played in two ways;
with plastic hockey sticks or
hitting it with y our fist. We
prefer using our fists. There are
six players on each team (one in
goal), they start the game off with
a face-off in the middle of the
gym, fouls may be called for (i)
getting too rough witha player
from the opposite team (ii)
kicking the ball (iii; or picking the
ball up. A foul shot is taken by
one person from 5 to 6 yards
away from the net. This game is
played much the same as ice-
hockey.
I think all the students are
looking forwad to the change from
Side-lined Basketball to Floor
Hockey.
