?HURS., SEPTEMBER 28, 1950 THE CANADIAN STATESMMi, EOWMANVILL!, ONTARIO PAGE THB~E To Contiue Basic English Classes Board of Education Decides The popular classes in Basic English and Citizenship for new Canadians will be continued again this year. This was learned at the September meeting of the Bowmanville Board of Educatian held ini the High School Libmary on Friday, September 15. Mr. Slute will likely handle the class- es again. They will ibe held .ither in the high scbool or the *entraI public scbool. ,The lengthy meeting which last- ed almost four bours covered many items a! business which we summarize at the end of this stomy. One of the moat enlight- ening parts o! the meeting was the reports pmsented by the Principals of bath bigh and public achools. Ahl scbools showed a large in- crease in enrolment. At the bigh sebool the enrolment is up ta 348 pupils. This is not as higb as anticipated possibly due ta the Enniskillen Continuation schoo] rc-opening. The one extra teach- er hired in June will look a!ter the extra pupils for this year. However, 25 extra steel lockers and 10 new desks will be requir- cd to meet the increased number of students. The breakdown a! enrolment ia as follows: Grade 9, 118 pupils; jjWrade 10, 94; Grade 11, 42; Grade ( 36; Grade 13, 32, and Commer- 'qial 26. There are 4 pupils at- tending grade 13 from Newcastle, one from Orono and one from Burketon. The enrolment at bath the On- tario Street and Central public sehools is at a new high witb a to- tal o! 762 pupils. Central school in 13 roams, bas an enrolment a! 483, and an average o! 37 pupils per classroom. Ontario Street sehool has an enrolment o! 279 in 6 rooms plus the kindergarten. an average of 35 pupils per class- room. Tftc total enrolment for bath schools is 26 pupils bighem than of June 29, 1950. To accommadate the Increase which is somewhat larger than expected an additional 10 chairs and desks were ordered by the Board. Other necessary changes and additions ta fix up the gym- nasiunis inta clàssrooms at bath schiools bas already been com- pleted. Other motions following Principal A. M. Thampsan's Public Scbools repart are as follows: the best ar- rangements possible are ta be made regarding transporting kmn- dergarten pupils ta the Ontario Street achool. This included per- mission ta ask certain parents ta have their children waik ta school and thus save the expense o! ,hiring a bus for both the a!ter- noon and morning classes. Principal Thompsan was auth- orized ta arrange a timetable sa senior students at the Ontario Street sehool can take cra!t and home economica at the Central public school. Arrangements are ta be made with Garton's bus ta transport the pupils from the On- tario Street shool on the eturn trip after taking the kindergart- en pupils down there. The On- tario Street school pupils will re- turn ta their own sehool on foot. As the auditorium at the On- tario Street school is now being used as a classroom it was pasa- ed that organizations wishing ta use the achool, subject ta the ap- proval o! thé Board, would be granted the use of the main hall. 'The Ladies' Auxiliary o! the Me- marial Park Association bas been granted this permission for the fourth Wednesday o! each month for their regular meetings and every Tuesday evening for card parties. Pupils attending the public schools will be allowed ta take home books owned by the schools but damaged books must be re- placed.

Dippel's high school report revealed that twa pupils, Madeline Osborne and Wm. Mur- doch, were chosen ta, attend the Ontario Athletic Commission camp at Lake Couchiching. They re- port a good time and that they learned a great deal regarding school sports. Tbey will be of value as leaders in many schaol activities along these lines. The Bowman'Yille Lions Club in conjunction with the Department of Education asked for the fol- lowing evenings at the bigh school for their musical programs: Oct. 18, Nov. 15, Jan. 17, Mar. 7. Permission was granted for them ta use the auditorium. A letter was received from the Bowman- ville Hospital thanking the high school for produce from thel school garden during the summer. Other general business includ- ed a report that no definite plansi have been made regarding the change in the playing field at the high school. It was suggested that the grounds be left as at present until the hall teams came forward with their recommenda- tions and notification that they are willing ta make partial pay- ment. Mr. Alan Densem was appoint- ed as temporary Attendance 0f- ficer due ta the illness o! Walter Hall. The paving at the Central public school has been completed. A letter from the Bowmanville Boy Scout Association asked for ownership o! the old South Ward school. A reply was sent, stat- ing that fiefore the school is dis- posed of, the Scouts will be given first opportunity ta secure it. The Scouts were granted per- mission, subject ta Management Committee approval, ta use the high school gymnasium one night a week. Chairman of the Board, D. Alex. McGregor, is ta check with Mrs. J. Thickson regarding dam- age ta her property by surface water running from the Ontario Street school. The Board will start prelimin- ary plans for an addition ta the high school ta accommodate the increase o! pupils when the new board takes over in January.
