The Brussels Post, 1975-06-04, Page 14PLUS --THE BRUSSELS, .POSTJUNE 4, 1975 • IMP' • BPS News Students see. Black Creek • t On. Wednesday, May 7th, the Grade seven class left for Toronto to see the Ontario Science Centre and the Black Creek Pioneer Village.. We left at 7:00 a.m, and arrived in Toronto at 10:00. The Science Centre is really worthwhile, going to. It has all sorts of items for everyone; from the smallest brain in the world to a push-button computer that thinks for you within seconds. Did you know that in a year one paper mill can supply enough paper to go around the equator twelve times? and how many i people halve told you they made paper in their own kitchen? Well, I found out for myself that it can be done. We then left the Science Centre at about 2:30 and travelled to the Black Creek Pioneer Village. The village was quite fascinating and talking to • the older people was an eve,nt in itself. One lady gave a• couple of girls a piece of spice cake that was baked in an early pioneer oven. On we went to Daniels Barn where we were taught how to flail wheat upon th ., floor. The Ili gentleman there s very nice and showed us :1; the correct technique on flailing the wheat We stopped at MacDonalds for supper. When we saw the menu, all diets and calorie counting was forgotten. When everyone was finished, the long homeward trip was to begin. Songs of all kinds were sung By Barbara Johnston of the Grade Seven Class of Brussels-Public School The past and the Present On Wednesday,May 8 , Grade 7 from the Brussels Public School went to the Ontario Science Centre and to Black Creek Pioneer Village in Toronto. We left at 7:00 *o'clock to go to the. Science Centre and arrived there at 10:15: The Science Centre was an elaborate building with carpet through it. In the Science Centre 'there were many mechanical instruments.There was a typewriter that you could type on, but before you st arted to type you must push the "In" button. After you finish typing you, push the "out" button and you would hear what you typed. We' departed from the Science Centre at 2:30 and arrived at Black Creek Pioneer Village at 3:15. I found that I enjoyed myself much more at the. Black Creek Pioneer Village than at the Science Centre but that's only my opinion. At the pioneer village everyone was so friendly to us. We saw Roblins Mill where the wheat is ground into flour. Where Daniel 'Flynn used to live a lady was dressed as a pioneer. I asked her if they made candles .She said there were' two ways in which to make candles. One way is to make them in moulds.This is done by pouring hot wax into moulds and setting the moulds in a place where they would harden. After the wax had hardened they put the moulds into water so that the candles will slip out of the moulds. The furniture and chinaware were beautifu. There were horses and buggies that would take you around the village.There were many stores and buildings in the village: A blacksmith shop, a church, a shoe maker store, a school, a mill, a gift shop, a town hall, a fire hall, a gunsmith shop and houses. 14 is just like our community but it is much smaller. This summer if you would like to enjoy a day out I would recommend a visit to Black Creek Pioneer Village. Heather Wilson Gr. 7.

Th‘ Three Ring Circus On May 5th Grade 3 went to Garden Brothers circus in London. First we saw two clowns. One wanted to ,go to the moon by being shot out of a cannon. He put on a helmet. It fit. Everyone started to laugh because he was too big to get in the cannon. He found a skinny clown,, but he did not want to go. Well he ended up in the cannon but when it was shot only some of his clothes .went out of the cannon. Then we saw a.girl in the cage with three • tigers and a lion. She made them do tricks. We saw two brothers from Germany on a high wire. At intermission we' all bought candy floss. It was good. After that we saw ladies walking on a big ball. They were good. Then we saw elephants that could do tricks with ladies sitting on them. Then it was time to go home, but I was sorry because I liked the circus. I'm glad Mrs. Wilson let us go. Kim Stephenson Grade 3 Garden Brothers Circus On May 5th Grade 3 went to the circus in London. We left by bus at 10:30 in the morning. Mr. Scott drove the bus. Mrs. Machan and Mrs. Richmond came to help look after us. Everybody sang some songs and talked' a lot on the bus. When we got to London we saw a lot of stores and houses. At Treasure Island where we saw the circus, there were a lot of buses and school children. We went inside up the stairs and tried to find seats close to the center ring. First they had -clowns that were very funny. There was a lady in with the lions. She was making them do tricks. They even had dogs, that could play basketball. Some ladies and a man rode on horses. The man kept falling pff. Six elephants were there. One picked a lady up by .its trunk.
