'The proposai also includes other features to support better ice facilities at the local arena. The group stated in their request for approval to carry-out the work that there would be no cost to the Agricultural Society and that aIl costs would be borne by the Athletic Association.. The Athletic did however ask that any grants which. were applicable be turned over to the Association to assist in the financing of the projeet. FRENCH - (Continued (rom page 1) many "built in"' factors whic'h might ensure, success. For example, immersion -programs are voluntary and students are coming into the program with high personal motivations and fromn homes where parents -are ýaIsù highly_ motivated. Dr. Swain begged the socio-economic status of the Immersion group as middle-upper ýclass. In the ýmatter of staffing, the, prin- cipal is, generally a "Hand picked" individual who is given carte blancheto select staff members, the, teachers in the present Toronto experi- ment therefore, are of very high calibre., The administration of the Northumberland and Durham Board recently surveyed neighbouring Boards of Edu- cation in regard té French language instruction. It would appear that most are using the twenty-mhinute period per-day with itinerant teachers. Dr. Swain was not supportive of this type of instruction. Stud- les have shown that. when> young children know that al but a very short period of their day is conducted in their fîrst language, there is little or no incentive to try to understand or be understood in a second language. The survey of other Boards also indicated a feeling that it was difficult. to make efficient use of an itinerant teacher's services since 50 much time is spent in travçlling and in the setting',up of teaching aids. SIt was suggested that if an elementary French language program were to be set up in Northumberland and Durham Counties, it would hecome necessary to re-organize courses at the Secondary level to accommodate those stu- den ,ts who have had several years of French language instruction. Conceivably, se- veral levels of French instruct ion would become necessary.. Dr. Swain indicated that'the selection of staff was most important and that native "French speakers" should be used wherever possible. She, pointed out that there is some difficulty in recruiting Quebe- cois. Concern, was expressed re- gardi.ng the attrition rate in French programs in element- ary school. Whiie admitting such a situation exists, Dr. Swain cQjuld not, at present, give any definite reasons for this happening. Grants would be available for the teaching of French a second language. Mr. G., Heymans, Modemns Consult- ant with the Ministry of Education informed the meet- ing that curriculum guidelines were available at the Grade 7 and Grade 8 leveis, but that curricula for lower grades wouid have to be formuiated by our Board. These would S ooI o r sTimes. Wednesday, Speie 9i,17- show siight drop Eiementary school enrol- ments in the United Counties dropped slightly this year, director of education Frank Thom reported during a meeting of the school board last night. "The figures for secondary schools have not yet settled, down but so far we have about 123 students less than at the same time last year," he said. "We predicted that we would be down by between 100 and 150 students." He said an officiaI figure could not be given until after October 1 when school prin- cipals take the official count and send in signed statements. At the moment 7,62 9 stu- dents have enrolled in the secondary schools -compared with 7,735 iast year. In elementary schools 16,575 stu- dents have enrolled so far this year compared with 16,708 at the same ti&ne last year.
