Plant operation â€" in â€" 1974 _ will account for 8.12% and plant maintenance for 2.65% of the total 1974 budget. Physiâ€" cal Plant involves the conâ€" struction of all school buildâ€" ings and additions, and inâ€" cludes a â€" comprehensive maintenance and custodial operation. . The _ Board‘s Maintenance and _ Conâ€" Movement education is different _ from _ physical education or physical trainâ€" ing because it does more than teach sports. Moveâ€" ment education helps stuâ€" dents learn to think logically while enjoying physical acâ€" tivity. That‘s the philosophy of Waterloo County Separâ€" ate School physical educaâ€" tion teacher Ann Kelly. She said: **Movement education means $wo things to me. Literally it means teaching movement, as in gymnastics and it implies a different approach to teaching. It means educating a child through movement."‘ Movement education in separate schools approachâ€" es five areas from a‘probâ€" lemâ€"solving point of viewâ€" gymnastics, creative dance, folk dance, basic sports skills and special topics like orienteering. snow shoeing. skating and swimming. Philosophy of Separate School teacher ‘‘For instance Imight say: ‘pass this ball to your partner the fastest way "If I want students to do a chest pass," said Miss Kelly. "I can use a traditional physical training method â€" show them what to do and expect them to repeat it. Or I can use a movement eduâ€" cation approach. Movement education sessions help students think logically struction Division is re sponsible for all aspects of the Physical Plant. PLANNING SCHOOL BUILDINGS Planning school buildings or additions to existing schools is a complicated and intricate task. The need for a new school buildâ€" ing is based on population growth, community need, data from area Planning Boards and many other factors. Schools must be designed to accommodate changing educational trends possible by using both hands and allowing it to leave your body only between your neck and waist.‘ ‘"After a few tries, the children inevitably do a perâ€" fect chest pass. In the proâ€" cess they‘ve solved their own problem and learned some new words and conâ€" cepts." y | To use this method classâ€" room teachers must learn a new way of doing things. They must analyse moveâ€" ment correctly to be able to phrase the challenge to students and they must accept wide variations in children‘s responses. "If we ask students to put themselves into an inverted horizontal position, the more athletic ones will do a head stand. But others may do a shoulder stand or a sort of upside down crouch. And all these responses are correct. Sports skills like throwâ€" ing,. _ catching. _ striking. dribbling and kicking are also attacked in a problemâ€" solving manner. Recreationâ€" al activities like snow shoeâ€" ing and skating are popular and help the children deveâ€" lop socially. ‘‘More important is the fact that all the children can participate. No one is penalized because he or she is not a star athlete." Waterloo Chronicle, Wednesday, March 12, 1975 â€" Page 25 and must incorporate faciliâ€" the maximum. Capital costs and future operating costs are taken into considerâ€" ation. It is not always pracâ€" tical to build arf initially inexpensive school which may later require large expenditures for upkeep. In spite of rising construction costs the Board attempts to keep expenditures for school _ buildings _ within specific square footage limitations. Junior schools are built to about $29 per square foot. Senior schools Students learn folk dances from Greece. Belgium, Engâ€" land and many other counâ€" tries which help them underâ€" stand foreign cultures and lands. In creative dance stuâ€" dents don‘t practice a set pattern of steps. Instead they devise a series of moveâ€" ments, usually in time to music. ‘*We break the dance into its component steps and then slowly teach them to students, emphasizing the thythm â€" pattern of _ the dance." said Miss Kelly. Children learn to relax and enjoy movement and activiâ€" ty without the pressure of having to perform, as they often do in team sport acâ€" tivity. in movement education sessions primary students at St. Daniel school. Kitchener, demonstrate that bending. stretching and other forms of physical activity are fun_and should be part of every day life. ; That is what the program THE Hockey Sticks LION "I2 .

Toâ€" day as population rates level off and as school enrollâ€" ment slows accordingly, the Board is placing less emâ€" phasis on building new schools and is planning to renovate and upgrade many existing facilities throughâ€" out the County. Limited Quantities aims to teach children â€" that running, bending and stretching are not diffiâ€" cult and can be fun. This idea hopefully will stay with them for life. ‘‘"Without preaching we try to make the children realize that the body needs to be strong and agile in orâ€" der to cope with the stress of everyday lhving." said Miss Kelly.
