SHINE | Business Administrator, Oshawa Separate School Board The Oshawa Separate School Board in the year 1963 com- pleted the largest expansion pro- ee in the history of the ard. Corpus Christi School on Hillside avenue was opened in September. This is a 12-room school which accommodates the Bilingual Classes and is known as the Bilingual School. Also accommodated in this school are four English - speaking classes. The school was constructed by the Wilkinson Construction Com- pany of Scarborough, Ontario _and the Architect was Mr, Wil- liam Saccoccio of West Hill, Ontario. St. Francis School on Harmony road south was an- other school constructed in 1963 and opened on September 1. This is a 6-room school and was built by John Hartjes and Sons Company Limited of Pickering and the Architect was Mr. Wil- liam Saccoccio, West Hill, On- tario. This school accommo- dates two Auxiliary Classes, one Junior and one Senior. These are the first Auxiliary Classes set up under the Osh- awa Separate School and accommodate children from all areas of the city. The other four classrooms are occupied by children from grade 1 to 6 in- clusive in the general area of the school. The third construc- 'tion project in 1963 was Holy Cross Annex No. 2. This was a four-room annex built to the south. The general contractor of this school was Bathe and Mc- Lellan Company Limited of Osh- awa and the Architect was Mr. William Saccoccio, West Hill. These three schools were virtu- ally leted by September 1, 1963 and in most cases were occupied at that time or within a very short period later, although the schools were not fully completed, classes were carried on, under reasonably satisfactory conditions. NEW CLASSES Of the 22 new classrooms opened as indicated above, 21 classrooms are occupied. The Bilingual Classes were moved from St. Christopher's School on Annapolis avenue into the new Corpus Christie School and as indicated before the two Auxil- iary were inaugurated and set up in St. Francis School, Some children previously attending Holy Cross School were directed to Corpus Christi School as well as some children who attended St. Hedwig's School and St. Ger- trude's School were dirccted to St. Francis School i St. Gregory's School, for "e first time came under one prin- cipalship. Formerly it was St. Gregory's Girls and St. Greg- ory's Boys. This year it became entirely one school, under one principal.

Grade 10 pupils were accom- modated at St. Joseph's Senior School for the first time (1962- 1963). This school was construct- ed in 1962 nad provided Grade 9 education only. Last year (1963-1964 term) the school was filled to capacity with grades 9 and 10 pupils. The board is considering and preparing long-range plans for the future and already has pur- chased a site, just east of Rit- son road south and north of Conant street for the erection of a new school which they plan to open on September 1, 1964. This school will be an eight- room school and will serve the children generally in this area. This school will relieve some of the pressure on the accommo- dation at St. Hedwig's School and Holy Cross School. NEW SCHOOL The Kinsmen Community Cen- tre was opened to the public in October, 1962. This represented the culmina- tion of a dream of many mem- bers of the Oshawa. Kinsmen Club. ; The centre provided a biuild- ing in which they might hold their meetings and also pro- vided for many organizations in the City adequate facilities at a reasonable rental. A committee was appointed in 1961 to investigate whether the erection of such a building was within the club's scope, After approval of the executive, a committee was formed consist- ing of Bob Sledziewski, 'Harold Roughley, Paul Ristow, Bruce Mackey and Tom Russell. Mr. Ristow secured the land, Harold Roughley and Tom Rus- sell secured adequate financing, Bruce Mackey handled the legal aspect and Bob Sledziew- ski, as chairman, acted as supervisor of construction, A site was chosen at Mac- that, when its financial indebt- edness is reduced adequately, these facilities will be offered without charge to charitable or- ganizations in the city, future Riverside drive. The building is 120 feet by 56 feet, constructed of cement block and has three floors. In the basement of 1,500 square feet are located the washrooms, storage facilities and an area suitable for headquarters for various Kinsmen club projects. The main floor has 6,720 square feet and contains cloak rooms, kitchen facilities and a b t|day hall suitable to accom | 500 for dancing or 575 for ban- quets or meetings. The second floor has 2,500 square feet and contains room for seating 175. The Board of Management for 1962-63 was composed of Steve Dyl, chairman, assisted by Bob Sledziewski, Al Pollard, Doug Hart, Art Stone, Doug Lowe and Lew Ripley.
