Week in retrospect Children spent an hour with Aesop at the Waterloo public library Mr. and Mrs. John Taylor pause beside a brook in their prizewinning garden at 292 Lourdes St By this time, the education de- partment had imposed a squeeze on all school projects. It with- held final approval until the school board whittled another 850,000 off the cost. Agreement was finally reach- ed and construction begun in 1968. The revised proposals called for a $610,000 junior school with auditorium, library-resource cen- tre and general purpose room, to be ready for occupancy by Sep tember, 1968. Later, plans were changed, when a population study was con- ducted. The first pupils were admitted to the school Jan. 12 this year. An official opening of the $563.- 058 building is planned for the end of September. Problems plagued the school since it was first proposed in 1967. A l4-room composite school was planned at that time, since local board officials felt this would best serve the needs of the area. Brand new school already obsolete A portable classroom was in- stalled on the site this week to ac- commodate Grade 6 pupils this September. Cedarbrae school hasn't been officially opened yet, but it's al- ready bursting at the seams. The campers, aged between nine and 13, returned home Monday afternoon. Staff workers remain- ed at the site preparing a near by Baptist Church camp for 130 Twin City campers due there this week- end.

Fire hits Y camp WATERLOO, ONTARIO THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1970 - 10c The separate school board was forced to speed up its plans for the area earlier this year. The Sir Edgar Bauer school, currently under construction. was schedul- ed for a September opening. Strikes in recent weeks may have delayed its completion. The school is located in Lake- shore Village, the fastest-growing subdivision in the city. Many of the residents are couples with young children. Principal Gordon Bechenhauer said the heaviest enrolment is at the primary level. His staff will be increased in September from ll to 13. At that time Trustee William Pugh warned that the accom- modatio was unlikely to be ade- quate by 1971. His prediction prov- ed only too true. There were 283 children in the school when it opened. Enrolment by the end of the school year was 310. Indications are that enrol- ment will be up to 375 by Septem- ber. Eventually pupils, many of whom had already attended three schools while waiting for Cedar- brae's opening, were admitted in January, 1970, while work- men were still in the building. This is the last year that Camp Wabanaki will operate at the site, which is on an island about three miles off Honey Harbor. Negotia- tions are under way to establish a larger camp near Huntsville. Fire broke out at the camp min- utes before the youngsters were to enter the building for their mid- day meal. They were just begin- ning the second half of a two-week stay at the camp. About 1,000 youngsters attend the camp annually. Boys attend in July and girls in August.
