The ,,e(1
the BRUCE
Generations Day successful event
A sincere thanks is made to our
supportive community. Firstly, our
Grade 8's enjoyed a valuable ex-
perience job shadowing various
people in the area.
This learning opportunity is a
worthwhile project where our
students get a hands-on feel about
the world of work. Without
interested community involvement,
we are unable to provide such op-
portunities.
Secondly, we would like to
express our appreciation to those
who have collected grocery tapes
for the school. In these tough finan-
cial times, programs like these
really • help us. Thanks also to
Knechtel's and Zehr's for spon-
soring these programs.

out during her speech presentation
and delighted her audience with her
very entertaining, humorous• speech
on "Hair."

Crumbs and Primary Rhymerry.
She read,her newest book Rapuri-
zel's Rap to the students.
Sonja loves the country and Was
so happy to take home some fresh
t'arm eggs from Lucknow.
Grade five and six students made
up the following poem as a thank
you tribute to our guest.
Sonja + Dunn = Fun
Sonja, Sonja took what you've
done,
You've gone and made poetry fun.
Poetry Yuck! Poetry Reeks
We thought poetry was only, for
geeks
Thanks alot for spoiling it all!
We liked our poetry when it was
dull.
Then one day our teacher read
Primary Rhymerry, dull poetry was
dead.
We like ,how you created a. poem
from a theme
Colors, tood and witches who
scream.
One of our favorites was about a
"cold."
We could identify with the facts
that you told.
Mark . Thurman's pictures were
really great .
We'd be sure to give him ten out of
eight. •
How did he ever draw such stuff?
-His dog Jay sounds and. looks really
tough. • •
Birthdays, friends,• clock talk,
keeping fit
'All of these poems with. our class
were a hit.
Your silly words filled our minds
Your poetry is really one of a kind.
Sonja, Sonja look what you've done
Thank -you for making poetry fun..
The annual Scholastic two• for the
price of one• book sale is now in
progress at the school. library.
Anyone is welcome to come and
purchase books for summer redoing.
Staff and students have. worked
hard for the past 2 years on STAR,
the problem solving approach to
. conflict management. The next
important step is to learn mediation
skills.
When a problem cannot be solved
between two people a . neutral 3rd
person becomes involved. This
person does not solve the problem
but helps. the disputants to resolve
their conflict' using .their own
-solutions. •
Grade 7 students have been
trained in mediation and volunteers
from that group will help primary
i
students to resolve 'their problems
peacefully. These students are not
responsible for playground super-
vision in any way, but will be
available for primary students in
conflict who would like help to
solve minor problems.
In the fall you will see the Luck -
now Central Problem Solvers out
on the yard, using their mediation
skills.
Many thanks to . the United
Church for providing a room for
our training sessions with the Grade
7 students.
It is our hope that all Grade 7
students will have increased their
communication and problem solving,
skills through this process. These
life skills are important outcomes
listed in the Ministry of Education
Common Curriculum.
• A little wet weather on our final
elective day, Tuesday, May 26th
couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of
our elective leaders ' and par-
ticipants!
All students had the opportunity
to .select an .elective session from
.our all time favorites, such as
Photography, Calligraphy, Cake
Decorating, T-shirt. Painting, Puppet
Making, Bowling, Gingerbread
Houses, Flower Arranging 'and
Horse Care. New offerings included
the highly popular Baseball, Child
Carp and Candy Flowers..
Many thanks to the talented elec-1
tive leaders who have helped our
students to encounter new ;interests
• and learn about cooperation and
excellence this Year. Special ap-
preciation to Merlene' Bergman,
Barb de Boer, Doreen Mali, Earl
Farrell, Kim Ozorio, Barb Bushell,
