A JAppy NEW yEAR l - L )yIV/EEENDS AND cos-mazes o W ' Again this year the students at Sweet Corner Elementary School participated in UNICEF collection at Hallowe'en. Classes taking part were the Kdgn., Primary, Junior, Special Ed. and Seniors. A total of 225 boxes were distributed and collections totalled $229.03. This is the largest amount collected since we have begun this annual project. Our thanks go out to all who collected and “ especially to all who contributed. The ‘ UNICEF collection was coordinated by Mrs. Mary E. Moulton. The funds are used to help over 900 million children in developing countries. Over 85% of those in rural areas have never had clean water to drink. Every year 5 mil- lion babies die from waterâ€"related diâ€" seases before their first birthday. The assisted country provides 2% times the amount of the assistance in goods and services. ' Thanks for helping. \ i , TONYS PLACE \<§;\\\ \\ ~ AT THE JUNCTION HIGHWAYS 15 & 32 "If rumour." STORE dROl/IID ‘T' CORNERS RmEMBRANCE DAY W Once a month the students at Sweet's Corners Elem. School are being encouraged to "dress up”. The first Dress Up Day was held on Tues. Nov. 15 with a large number of the students participating. Girls wore dresses and boys wore jackets and ties with teachers partipating also. Compliments were common as students and teachers alike appreciated the imâ€" proved appearance of those taking part. A dance was held in the gym at noon in order that good clothes would not be soiled or ruined by playground play. Dress Up Day is an attempt‘to lift school spirits - children and adults both tend to feel better when dressed up. It breaks the regularity of School routine. It is possible to make more positive comments abOut dress when students and teachers are "dressed up". It was obvious that students seemed to act more mature and manners tended to improve. Dress Up Day provides an excellent opportunity for teachers to impress upon their students the necesâ€" sity for and importance of good manners. Another Dress Up Day is planned for Deâ€" cember. A special Remembrance Day service was prepared and presented on Thurs. Nov. 10 by Mrs. Dorothy Landon's year 8 students. Guest veterans from Branch 504 Legion were President Joe Ward and Comrade Joe Chapman. Both expressed their apprecia- tion at being invited and following the service Mr. Chapman complimented those participating on their competence. Emcees for the programme were Scott Seaman and Heather Stevens. Background music was provided by Mrs. Jolene Hop- wood. Following the singing of "0 Ca- nada" by all the classes assembled, the Junior Choir directed by Miss Sharon Hurrell sang "Clouds". Jane Kenny ex- plained the reason for observing two minutes of silence. Following the dedi- cation by Peggy Peddle, the guests Mr. Ward and Mr. Chapman were introduced. The Last Post, 2 minutes of silence, re- veille and the raising of the flag were followed by several readings. The service closed with the singing of 3 songs by a guitar group. The entire student body were provided by the local legion.
