Grade 1 at SPS writes storie
Once a, week, Mr. Soldan's
grade 7 students have
printed the stories dictated
by a grade one partner to
build a collection of stories
that the primary pupils can
read. These stories are typed)
by a parent volunteer on a
primary typewriter, and
added to a class book.
Here are .their ideas about
the forthcoming circus.

found Seaforth on the big red
island, so he decided to

THE CIRCUS
The circus is fun You like
to see yourself in the mirror
at the claw n's house, I like
going into the skeleton's
house, The people swinging
on the bars are fun to watch.
There are lots of rides you
can ride on. You can buy
candy. You can eat candy:
floss. You can seethe clowns.
and horses. Lions will scratch.
at you and roar. i will enjoy
the circus.

opportunity to' see how your

Well we :.grade eight

students at Seaforth Public
school visited the London
Free Press on May twenty-
second, While being assisted'
by a tour guide, we were able
to learn that. this building is
very large and has many
interesting departments:
' To start our enjoyable trip
"off we were shown the many
typists, reporters and editors
who were: busy with their
work. We, watched machines
and . computers ' worth
millions of dollars at work.
As we toured through the
building we enteredangisy
room where we saw the
paper being put to press
After climbing a flights, of
stairs we looked through a
window where we saw the
paper being printed. Two
and a:half hours is the time in
which it takes• to have the
daily newspaper, The
London Free. Press printed,
Entering a very large room
we saw an area in which any
inserts are ` added: to the
paper and the papers
themselves are counted and
packaged for the delivery
routes.
We found this trip
interesting, enjoyable but
most of all very educating.
