Checking out the cam eras are: (Rear 1-r) Anthony Gallow 11, Tanya Bridges 12, Danielle Ward 14. (Middle row) Matt McCarthy 14, Michael Bencak 10, Adam Ribeiro 11, Alex Haddock 14 and (front row) Lucas Flor 11 and Daniel Vogt 11 Photo project to record week in life of school Karen Robbins SPECIAL TO THE BEAVER Students at St. Marguerite D 'Youville are capturing their memories o f Catholic Education Week with 35 disposable Photosource Supreme cameras. This week, each class at the school has been given one camera with 27 photos to take pictures of the Education Week events. The photos are being compiled by Avery College, of College Photography Inc., into a spiral-bound Millennium Memories journal entitled, `A Week in the Life of St. Marguerite.' Principal Elaine Hine said the book will emphasis this years' Education Week theme of `Catholic schools making all things new.' St. Marguerite D'Youville students celebrate Catholic Education Week "This theme reminds us that our Catholic schools provide an education based on the beliefs of the Catholic tradition," Hine said. "It also emphasizes that Catholic education pro vides a distinct contribution to the students themselves and society as a whole." College, who also does the school's class photos, said he and Hine were talking about a yearbook concept and she suggested `a day in the life' book. He took that one step further suggesting they do `a week in the life' and applying it to Education Week. Hine loved the idea. "I just wanted a nice special memento that our students could have for not only Catholic Education Week, but also for Jubilee 2000 - that's our celebration in the Catholic church of 2000 years since Jesus was bom." College said this journal will be very dif ferent from other yearbooks because it is about the students, by the students. "I like to focus on the students. Someone said, `Why don't you get the Superintendent .down there' and I said, `Oh no, we don't need any of that stuff.' I like the kids - they're the important thing." Family members are invited to events put on by the classes all week. Some of these include a school council meeting, a dance-athon, a play on the Passions and a French cafe. At the end of the week, College is having a draw for the students to give away a 35mm camera valued at around $200.
