People
Murray and Joan Jacklin spent a
couple of days at the home of Mur
ray's father, Mel, before moving to
Cornwallis, Nova Scotia, where he
has been transferred.
Lynne Armstrong is an avid ball
fan, so when she won a recent
Procter and Gamble/ Big V contest
it couldn't have been more appro
priate.
Last Saturday, Lynne and her
husband Murray, travelled to Sky-
Dome and with the close to 150
other contest winners, saw the Jays
and the Kansas City Royals in
action. The game was enjoyed from
window seats at the Dome restau
rant, while the guests enjoyed a
non-stop smorgasbord meal.
After the game, there was a tour
of the facility, then the group went
to the Argos dressing room where
they suited up and Lynne and the
rest of the group actually played
ball al SkyDome for about four
hours.
Lynne said it was a terrific time
and quite an experience.
on Monday, July 1.
Mr. Cardiff sent posters, flags
and maple leaf pins which were
used as prizes for winners of the
flag drawing contest and the "Quiz
Canada" questions.
Every child in the school had an
opportunity to participate in "Cana
da is...", by making posters or
researching information on Canada.
The assembly format included an
introduction to Canada and facts
about the country. Children who
had made the Provincial Coat of
Arms had looked up information in
their province and told the others
about it.
The class sang "This Land is
Your Land" and closed the assem
bly with "O Canada". Everyone
present joined together to sing
"Happy Birthday Canada" as the
giant birthday cake with maple leaf
flags planted on it was brought out.
The cake and the flags were made
by the children.
