There is no doubt that increased traffic, a parking lot and the operations associated wlth a Fur Factory wlll nega- tively impact on the animal populations using this corri- dor. An assortment of wfldlife can be found at Wlmot Creek and my students delight in seeung signs of deer, fox, mlnk, coyote, hawks, owls, blue herons, to name but a few. With habitat disappear- ing at an alarming rate (over 200 hectares are lost to devel- opment each hour in Canada: Source - Federation of Ontario Naturallst Information Pamphlet), we need to protect corridors wvherever possible, especially those that are being utiltzed C POLICE1 Jan 12 - Three youths were seen loading irrigation pipe onto a pick-up truck at the Orono Forestry Station.

The staff wlll continue to emphasize communications with students, parents and the school community.

Formal report cards for grades i - 6 wili be sent homne on Friday, 06 February 1998. PLEASE TAKE NOTE As of 0i January 1998 our school board is now officially known as English-Language Publie District School Board #14. The interim- head office is for educational purposes. Caring stewards of tomor- row's natural spaces need to have diverse natural spaces to learn frorn now. Please thlnk twice about endorsing a development that will negatively impact on an area that is naturally regen- erattng. The proposed Official Plan amendments will set a dangerous precedent. Once an area is designated indus- trial it will unlikely ever revert back to its' formai designa- tion of environimentally sen- sitive land or agricultural land. Is that a legacy we can afford to leave our children?
