Local Student Accepted for Enrolment at Dordt College By Terry-Lee Pypker Boy, oh boy, what a busy time of year! Students and teachers are working working on exams, others on the upcoming performance of the school play, still others with school sports teams and the tournaments coming our way in volley-ball. I suppose keeping busy is good for the mind and soul but you still need to take time out and RELAX! RELAX! That's why the whole school went skiing together last Friday. What a great idea. This past week, I interviewed a fellow fellow classmate of mine, Jessica Knoop. Jessica is a grade twelve student who is very actively involved in the school. Jessica has taken on the challenge of six OAC's in her fourth year of high school. Many people spread these difficult difficult courses over two years, but not Jessica. She is also on Durhams' band council. Her job there is to co-ordinate the annual band tour. Jessica has the responsibility to decide where the band will perform on the tour and make up a time schedule. She also has special jobs during the concerts not only on the road but also when the band plays at our very own Christmas and Spring concerts. Jessica has always enjoyed sports and excels at her favorite one, badminton. badminton. Jess is also on the senior girls volley-ball team and senior soccer team. In the past she participated in track as well. They publish student works such as essays, poems, and short stories every year in a delightful journal that makes for pleasant reading and can be purchased purchased at the school any time. Jessica's hope and dreams for the future are very unique and are quite excellent as far as I'm concerned. She plans on completing medical school and then going to a famine stricken country and working as a doctor among the sick and poor. This is a wonderful goal to set for oneself and the greatest part is that it is one of service, service, not for ourselves, but rather for others whose needs are much greater than our own. As some of you may or may not know, the Christian High Schools have been preparing to go to court with the Mnistry of the Attorney General General to argue our right for approved Bible credits. This came about when the Ministry would not accept our Bible courses as being full fledged religion religion courses. Now the Christian Schools have received an offer from the Ministry and it is currently being reviewed. Going-ons around Durham arc as follows: February 3 girls volleyball in Courtice, February 5 and 6 girls volleyball volleyball tournament with Quinte league, February 10 girls volleyball in Uxbridge. February 5 and 6 the Durham Durham choir are leaving for a retreat at Camp Samac in Oshawa. ' Durham's very own production of the play "The Hobbit", will have its performances from February 24 - 21'. It will be a wonderful show and I personally personally encourage everyone to come out and enjoy it. Proceeds go to the- theatre fund for Durham Christian High. Pines Students Welcomes Guest Speaker You'll see Jessica often at work in the school store. She works there voluntarily voluntarily to raise money for the French OAC trip to Quebec in April. In previous years, Jessica has served on student council. Now she is Jessica Hull of Bowmanville, Ontario, Ontario, has been accepted for enrollment enrollment at Dordt College in Sioux Center, Center, Iowa. Hull is the daughter of John and Glenda Hull and is a senior at Durham Christian High School.

Ravi Joshi, Associate Director of Production, at the Whitby-based Sandoz pharmaceutical firm, was the guest speaker on Monday morning at The Pines Senior Public School.
