SDHS ,back to n�nnal
by 'rr E n Ign In,�t oo
Well, it's back to books,
early morning wake up calls,
lunch in a paper bag, home-
work and long bus rides to
school. Whoopee! This is the
life! Just when 1 was getting
used to and enjoying sleeping
in until 11 o'clock every
morning, 1 have to reset my
alarm for four hours earlier.
As usual for the first day of
school, a lot of high school
students slept right through
their alarms Tuesday. This is
an especially easy thing to do
if you have a radio alarm. It is
always• fun to wake up with a
start and realize that you have
overslept a half hour, or so.
particularly on the first day of
School for the year.
We managed to struggle
out of bed and face the day
with a seni•i-nice smile on our
faces, the best we can do for
going to school. I have always
blessed the person who
thought up the idea of Labour
Day on the Monday before
school starts because most
people hate Mondays as it is
and starting on a Monday
would seem so much worse.
Tuesday morning was nice
and bright and sunny. a great
day to go back to school. It
was cool 'enough that we
could get away with wearing
sweaters and new warm
clothes and warm enough
that we didn't need jackets to
cover our clothes up with, The
radio announcers sounded
more, chipper than usual,
probably because they have
school age children,
Parents are always great on
the first day back 'to school
after three months. They
make sure that you' have a
good breakfast before you go -
so that "you'll have a great
day." Personally 1 think it is
so that we won't get sick half
way through the day and have
to come home. It makes more
sense to me.
Another great thing about
parents on the Tuesday after
Labour Day is how interested
they are about your classes
and things that you, plan to
do. They are forever remind-
ing you that you look nice and
how excited you must feel.
Obviously they do not re-
-member the ordeal of going
back to School after holidays!
Once on my way to school, ,
things were beginning to look
okay. 1 was remembering
friends I hadn't seen all
summer and thinking about
Scouts big at Vanasfra
Registration for Scouts and
Cubs will be held at the
Vanastra Rec Centre on Sept.
13, 1982. All boys are
requested to be accompanied
by a parent. A program will
be presented to show adults
and boys what the program
and Boy Scouts of Canada
has to offer "them". Boys
from the age 8 to 10 years
may register for Cubs while
boys from 11 to 14 may be
able to register for scouts.
Registrption is to com-
mence at 7 p.m. and is open
to all residents of Tucker -
smith. For any additional
information please contact:
Scoutmaster - Jeff Dixon,
482-9183 or Cubmaster . Jim
Thomas, 482-9467.
The word scouting; conjur-
es up many visions in a
young boys mind. Camping,
cooking, fires and outdoor
adventures. To an adult the
scout is a boyin a green shirt
and a funny hat selling
apples. This is all that some
people see but did you know:
Scouting is the largest youth
organization in the 'world
today. This year marks the
75th anniversary of scouting
as a world wide organization.
What scouting has stood for
during the past three quart-
ers of a century has survived
the many changes which
have happened throughout
the world. Scouting covers
the age groups from 5 to 2.3
`years. These ages include
Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Ven-
turers and Rovers. Each
section has a specific pro-
gram geared to that age
group.
The aim of Boy Scouts of
Canada is to help boys,
youth and young adults to
develop character and re-
sourcefulness. Mental, phy-
sical social .and spiritual
development are also aims of
scouting. Development of
these characteristics is done
by giving each scout the
opportunity to work and play
with others of his own age
Ask a boy why he joined
"Scouting" and chances
are he will say, "To go
camping". Scouts Canada
has long provided the pro-
grams to allow this to
happen. Scouting also allows
each member to work in
small groups
The dream of one man,
"Lord Baden Powell," Com-
monly known as "BP" to all
scouts, has brought fun and
adventure to countless boys
in the last 75 years. Why not
have your son become a part
of it?
different subjects that I will
be taking. It was even kind of
exciting. All the way to
school however, I -was alone, I
didn't see one other student
walking or riding their bike to
school. Sure, I left for school
late. why start off the year
with the impossible, that only
proves to everyone that I can
be on time for school.. I began
wondering if 1 got my weeks
mixed up and maybe I still
had another,week of holidays.
If only dreams would come
true. As 1 rounded the corner
!noticed all of the cars parked
in tete parking lot and a few
people walking here and
there. Back to SDHS.
The school looks basically
the same. with a few changes
here and there: It was very
obvious by the smell of the
roof 'and the shaking of the
lights in room 16 that there
are men at work on the roof
tarring it, but other than that
everything is pretty much the
same.
The enrolment of the
school is up this year by quite
a bit I think, There are two
classes of grade 13 students
this year (about 60 altoge-
ther). Also there are some
new faces in the teachers'
room and classrooms. With
the new semester system
there are quite a few "mature
students" who ' have pre-
viously left high school and
have now returned to get
their high school diplomas.
This -is a good idea because it
is possible that they may only
have to pick up a few credits,
which means only a few
classes all year.
Of course there are
"grubs" or grade 9 students
roaming the halls of the high
school, waiting to be picked
on by one of the seniors
during initiation, However.
they have a long wait. It is
funny, but the grade nine
students seem to be getting
smaller every year. It didn't
seem like we were that small.
It takes a while to get to
know everyone and catch up
on summer news but give us a
week or so and things will be
back to normal at SDHS or at
least as normal as things can
get. It should be a good year
and with any luck at all there
will be more SDHS- news in
the newspaper as the year
goes on. Once the Whippets
start their games at the end of
September and the tennis and
cross country teams begin,
there will be lots of news.
We survived the confusion
and •excitement of the first
day back and I'm certain that
we will survive the year.
SDHS is a very educational
institution but I'm not ready
for an institution yet!
If you know of anyone who
will be celebrating their birth-
day, soon, please send their
name. age and birthday to
The Huron Expositor, Box 69,
Seaforth, Ontario or phone
