PKch-inand Keep Canada Beautiful Something To Think About GARY CONWAY -DfRECTOR- DEATHAPARTOF LIFE Attitudes towaru deatn are shaped by the physical world, as well as by religious beliefs. Throughout most of history, •the world was a place' of ' hardship, poverty, disease and starvation. Infant . mortality used to be extremely ' high, and death was a common occurrence among all ages, especially In time of ' epidemics and plagues. As a natural result, death was very much a part of everyday life, a fact with which even the youngest child was familiar and. one.for which everyone had to be prepared, In most places, even burial was among the living - on farms, In town commons, as well as in'church yards. Fortunately, medical science and prosperity have greatly decreased infant mortality and increased life expectancy. Urban living has changed the pattern of personal burial. Death has ceased to be an everyday part of life. More than ever before, the experience of the funeral service Is Important to help us understand and accept death when It does occur.

Editorial By Laura Silver I was talking to a friend of mine a few days ago. She mentioned that school was boring. I asked her what about school was boring, she replied that there was nothing to do outside of the classes. It's hard to believe anyone could be bored with the number of teams, clubs and activities floating around! After naming a few of these off the top of my head, I researched further and found more groups and committees than can possibly be written in this column. However, just in case there are some more students who are feeling bored, here are some suggestions to chase the "school blues" away! Some of the more prominent groups every year include various musical ensembles and also the drama club. If you had a chance to see "Bye Bye Birdie" last week, you might have decided, to try out for following , productions. Sports teams are also widely known. If, you are the active type, fry one or-more of these sports : badminton, baseball, basketball, rugby, volleyball, football, golf, soccer, tennis or track and field! Did I mention squash, swimming, skiing? Sport not only improves your physical condition but pro vides a welcome break from thé classrooms and also gives people a chance to represent B.H.S. If your interests are non- athletic, get involved in photography, photography, journalism, the band, or even join the yearbook staff in producing the 1985-86 yearbook. yearbook. Somewhere, hidden in the depths of our school, one might find a chess club, library club, swim team, computer club or, the infamous infamous (or is it famous now?) obstruction club (located, for your inconvenience in front of library)! Most of these groups are always glad to welcome new members. If you are interested interested in joining any of the above, or if you would like information, information, contact me! Here's hoping no one in our school is ever bored again! Co-Operative Education By AlWoodlock This is the second year Bowmanville High School has offered a pre-school playcare service operated by Family Studies Co-operative Education Education students. This service is open to the children of staff and students and several adult students have taken advantage advantage of the service. The Co-operative Education students are supervised quite closely by Mrs. Michalejko who teaches the child and development course as part of the family studies Co-op program. The following is a summary of the program written by Co-op student Andrea Gibson. Playcare Services at B.H.S. It's not unusual to see six toddlers in the halls, washroom, washroom, and gym at Bowmanville Bowmanville High School. The Family Studies Department, headed by Mrs. Michalejko, is offering offering a playschool run by cooperative cooperative education students. The program, which is under the supervision of Nathalie Landry, Lori Whalen and Stacey Zarosky is designed designed to provide day-care services for the children of students and staff members. The program offers various activities for the children to develop socially, physically and mentally. On Friday, Nov. 15, the children brought in their Teddy Bears for a Teddy Bear party. For other activities, the Tech department built and donated a sand box which the children greatly enjoy. The children also love creating and helping to cook in the kitchen'. Soon, we hope to introduce the children to basic computer activities, gymnastics, and our music department. The children would gladly appre ciate any donations of toys and games.
