NEWS By Sarah-Jane Woods April was a busy month with preparations for the danceâ€"aâ€"thon and rehearsals for the musical "The Merchant of Venice" which proved to be big success. The leads in the production were: Heather Anderson as Portia, Kent Foley as Bassanio, Morgan Lalonde as Antonio, Kate Egan as Shylock, Lisa Garvin as Nerrisa, Andre Courville as Rocky, Tina Risberg as Jessica and Dan Halladay as Lorenzo. Thanks go to band members and producation crew, with special appreciation to Mr. Jim Palmer for the suberb directing job. Congratulations to all the cast and crew for a job well done. The dance-a-thon was also a great success, beginning at noon and ending at midnight. All dancers made it successfully to the end. Special thanks to Jonathan Tennant for supplying the music. The next dance is May 10/85 with CKLC providing the music. School spirit events for April included "Opposition Day" where everyone was to support the Opposition by wearing gold; a jello eating contest held at noon where both participants in each team were blindfolded and one fed the other with jello. Most ended up with a lot of jello in their hair! The April Session of Parliament was a lively one and we had a special guset, Mrs. Dolores Wing. Throughout the session the opposition kept the government on their toes. At the closing of the session, Mrs. Wing was thanked for attending and presented with some ADHS memorabilia. She responded by thanking us for the invitation and said a few words to the student body. Next session will be held May 8/85 /f .1,’ we; , / .- Children's Aid Society or Family and Children's Services. It's not an easy task Few jobs demand more of a person.

Being a foster parent is a tough job. It's full-time. Twenty-four hours a day. Often frustrating, and always demanding of your patience, energy and love. Yet despite its demands, or maybe because of them, thousands of people take foster children into their homes each year. Some are children, some are teenagers. Some have special physical or emotional needs. But all have one thing in common. They need a sense of place and security to help them through a difficult period in their lives, and to prepare them for reuniting with their families. There's a very basic joy in sharing with a child or young person some of the richness that life has given you. As part of a team of social workers and other professionals, you'll be helping foster children and their parents when they need help most And helping yourself at the same time, to mature and grow as an individual. lf you’d like to learn more about becoming a foster parent, contact your local Ministry of Community and Social Services .Ontario
