Cainion's Old cAtill 523-4740 Teachers attend winter institute Lillian Hallam and Marlene Star- key, teachers at Walton Public and Grey Central were among the over 600 delegates from across the province attending a three-day conference on the environment. The theme of the Winter Institute, “The Environment: Our Future Today”, was chosen because it is a priority for Federation of Women’s Teachers’ Associations of Ontario (FWTAO) to encourage awareness of environmental issues and environmentally responsible behaviour among teachers, stu­ dents and the public. The Federation of Women Tea­ chers’ Associations of Ontario which represents over 38,000 women who teach in public ele­ mentary schools, sponsored the conference on January 24 , 25 and 26 in Toronto. In the opening keynote speaker address, “Planet Under Stress”, Dr. William S. Fyfe, Dean of Science at the University of Wes­ tern Ontario, brought delegates up to date on the environmental issues. On Friday morning, Dr. Rosalie Bertell, who is the Presi­ dent of the International Institute of Concern for Public Health spoke of strategies that classroom teach­ ers can use to deal with health issues in the schools. Delegates could choose full and half-day sessions from over 90 workshops presentations by curri­ culum leaders in the environmen­ tally related areas of science, social science and health. A highlight of the conference was the Saturday morning panel discussion where four outstanding women (Rosalind Cairncross, Janine Ferretti, Fiona Nelson and Carolyn Pearce) spoke about “How Teachers Should Get Involved In Environmental Issues”. The topic inspired many questions and com­ ments from the audience.
