WHMIS PROGRAM by S. Boyd and K. Kerr On Monday, April 3, the children of Grey Central were dismissed at 12 noon. Teachers at Grey Central stayed at the school for a WHMIS Pro­ gram. WHMIS stands for Workshop Hazardous, Materials, Informa­ tion, System but the real meaning is the right to know. It let’s the teachers know about the dangers in the materials we use daily at the school. It will help them protect their health and safety. That means if they can do that they will be able to protect the children better. Mrs. Cathy Elliott from Seaforth Public School was the one who presented the WHMIS Program. All the teachers, bus drivers, the secretary, the care taker, took part in the presentation. It was held from 12:30 till 4:00 p.m. The main thing they were learning was how to handle, how to store, and how to dispose of certain materials. The teachers would like to thank Mrs. Cathy Elliott for teaching them more about the dangers in materials the teachers use daily at our school. THE READING AND WRITING PROGRAM by S. Boyd and K.
