They thought and thought and then de¬ cided to make Hallowe’en pumpkin puppets to sell to all the children in the elementary grades. Finally all the puppets were made and dancing from their strings. We were ready to sell them. The money came pouring in and at last when we had sold them all we found we had $15.00. Our teacher. Miss Wasserman, took the money to the Red Cross Building. They sent us a receipt and thanked us for the money which went towards the Crippled Childrens’ Fund . Maureen Mika — Room 24 -- Grade 6 On December 5th, 1957, a group of Grade 9 girls went to sing Christmas Carols for the University Women’s Club on Westgate. Gail Gerelus accompanied us on her violin. The girls who sang were: Charlene Craig, Suellen Glenat, Karen Blevins, Myrna Macready and Janie Smith of Room 10. The school was most generous in pro¬ viding us with transportation and Miss Crook- shanks helped us before we went. After the carols had been sung, the girls were taken to a small room and given cokes and cookies. The girls were dressed in colourful min¬ strel costumes with bright scarves around their heads. On behalf of the girls, I would like to thank the University Women’s Club and Miss Crookshanks. Suellen Glenat -- Room 10 SANDY LAND’S FOREST RESERVE On October 15, the pupils of Rooms 10, 11, 13 and 17 went on an excursion to the Sandy Lands Forest Reserve. In the morning they met at the school and boarded a chartered bus. An hour and a half later they arrived at the Forest Nursery. Under the supervision of Mr. Smith and Mr. Hensley, they were shown a- round the nursery and saw the young seedlings, machines which treated the acorns and the plant¬ ing machines. Seedlings were given to the pupils to plant. Mr. Hensley took pictures of the group and they boarded the bus and were taken to a spot where they ate lunch. Afterwards the students were issued shovels, holes were dug and each planted three seedlings. The group returned to the bus, ar¬ riving back in the city at 3:30. We sincerely thank Mr. Smith and Mr. Hensley for making possible our very enjoyable trip to Sandy Lands. Ronald Herd -- Room 10 40
