They also wrote Mother's Day Booklets and printed a song to sing called "A Gift for Mother". We hope all moms have a good rest. They worked at Science centres about insects, birds and small creatures. They went for a Spring walk and saw many interesting things. They had a film on Ants, Snakes and Ladybugs. It was good and we learned lots of things. Grade 2 Grade 2 really enjoyed being class of the month for April. Thank you to Mr. Pike for the special soccer -baseball games.

It's said that education is a valuable thing. Statistics Canada's figures from the 1981 Census bear this out. Among Cana- dians aged 25 to 34, university graduates earned, on average, approximately 50 per- cent more than those who hadn't studied at the postsecondary level.
