PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, June 19, 1984 -- 11 Goodbye parties for grads at YMCA ah tb A SR nursery school On Wednesday May 30 and Thursday May 31, there were four special good-bye grad- uation parties for all of the pupils enrolled in the: Durham Region Family YMCA Playscheol at the Y Centre, Port Perry. A total of 90 children attended their gradua- tion parties and their parents were present to congratulate them. We had a busy and exciting year at the 'Y" Nursery School. Several trips were planned for the children. In December the two "4 Year Old" classes visited Cullen Gardens, " Whitby and saw the miniature village decor- ated for Christmas. All the classes visited the farm of Everett Prentice, Scugog Island in April to learn about making maple syrup. Everyone enjoyed see- ing the sap drip into the pails on the maple trees a dk kok ok 4 GRADUATION Anne Marie Taillon, daughter of Doris and the late Leo Taylor, Port Perry, recently graduated from Ryer- son with a Bachelor of Applied Arts in Early Childhood Education. % and seeing it bubble away in the huge black pots over the open fire. The '4 Year Old" classes visited the den- tist's office in May. Dr. Cottrell, Hardy and Shearer showed the children how to care for their teeth and gave them an interesting tour of their offices. Learning how to make pizza at Mother's Pizza, Oshawa, really interest- ed the morning classes when they visited in May. Eating the pizza was even more exciting! The "4 Year Old' classes discovered how a Big Mac is made when they toured McDonalds, Oshawa, in May. Every- one said the hamburg- ers and orange pop tasted great! Firemen, Al Armour and John Wassink gave all the classes terrific tours of the firehall in Port Perry. Everyone enjoyed the wail of the siren and they looked like miniature firemen when they were allowed to try on the firemen"s clothing. Our final trips of the year were to local farms. Each trip was unique and the children learned a lot about living on a farm. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Christie, Manchester; Mrs. Andrea Jones, Prince Albert; Mr. and Mrs. John Davis, Scugog Island and Mrs. Linda Irving, Epsom very graciously allowed us to visit their farms and they very capably con- ducted the tours. Yes, the year of 1983- 84 at the "'Y" Nursery School was very event- ful and we all had a lot of fun' editorial comments (continued) if they don't want a new road (and apparently ninety per cent are of this opinion) then don't build it. Unlike other decisions where council has to take into consideration the overall benefits to Scugog Township as a whole, this issue has no impact on anybody other than those who live there. Those people have sent a clear message to the elected reps, and council really should agree to their wishes. However, in saying that, we would suggest that council negotiate with the developer who owns the land an agreement whereby some time in the future, be it five, ten or fifty years, this municipality could retain the option to build a road TERMS OF SALE: oo across that land to link the beaches.
