In speaking with some of the students they spent the morning in the forest playing games and collecting natural materials for their crafts.

Aller lunch the students assembled in the Quonset H-ut for the craft portion of the outing. t was round and round the wax kettle to dip thecir candles to a size to fit their crafted candie holders made of material collected in the morning. The programi openled at the Centre on Novemnber 24th and continues tbrougb to December l9thi. The program- has been fully booked for this period and some five bundred students will be taking part in the outing.

The craft options included Grapevine Wreaths, Ornaments, Canie Making, and Candie Holders. The students also set aside some time to create a Christmas wreatbi for their own school room. This is the third year for the programn whîch bas grown in popularity.
