The crowd was still somewhat sparse, but growing rapidly as the volunteer chefs were turning their batter into golden flapjacks, served with maple syrup and sausages. They were too busy to take time out for name taking so we'll just print their photos and hope the entire event was profitable.

L.S.D. ETC. By Mike Pot On May 26, 1987, Waverley Public School had a visit from Constable Dillon from the Durham Police Force. She came in to talk about Drugs and what happens when you take them. She brought in Drugs in a glass case worth about $1,000.00. We saw a movie about Drugs and Alcohol called EPIDEMIC that talked about what drugs do to you. On the movie was a sixteen year old boy who was crazy from taking drugs. He blacked out in the school yard from taking an overdose. They took him to the hospital. When he woke up he didn't know who he was. He still doesn't know who he is. That was an example. Don't let this happen to you. I hope that all the kids listened to that presentation. presentation. Parents Attend Kindergarten By Jason Moore On Wednesday, May 27, at Waverley Public School a kindergarten meeting was held in the Waverley auditorium. auditorium. The parents of registered kindergarten children for September attended attended this meeting. Mr. Reid welcomed everyone and introduced Mrs. Robinson and Mrs. tenWesteneind who showed a slide presentation. The slides showed a variety of the many activities and skills that are learned in kindergarten. kindergarten. The kindergarten teachers narrated the slide presentation. Each of the parents was given a sheet of paper marked with a "t" for tenWesteneind or an "R" for Robinson which indicated which class their child would be in, Two grade six students, Mark Read and Laura Somerscales, then escorted the parents to the kindergarten rooms. The teachers talked to the parents about the different, centres in the rooms and then let the parents go to whatever activity they chose. The parents had a great time painting, cutting and pasting and modelling with piny dough. They even got to make their own pizza using English muffins, tomato sauce, cheese and pepperoni. They also got to see how children build their knowledge and skills by using the computer and how they develop different muscles by using the climbing apparatus and different games. I think the parents had more fun than the kids did! Then Mark and Laura led everyone ■ back to the auditorium where they had coffee and cake. After a few words about Waverley's many activities such as clubs, pizza and hot dog days by Mr. Reid and Mr. Thompson, the meeting ended. Now the parents know how much fun their children are going to have at Waverley.

The meeting was about grade sixes going to grade seven. They were talking talking about some changes in spelling, math and behaviour. Some of the programs at Waverley are going to be at Bowmanville Senior School (like enrichment). I think the ' grade sixes are going to find a big change but, they're going to like it just the same.
