Port Perry High School News IFN AS LEN £34 PEN 21 1 Adopt second foreign child by Lee Howsam P.P.H.S. are now the proud foster parents of their - second foreign child - Elmo Gido. Elmo is a little boy from the Philippines who is 10 years old and currently attending grade 4 in a government school. He participates well in the school programs and activi- ties. He sings, dances, and loves outdoor games, parti- cularly kite-flying. Elmo can be depended upon to fetch water, gather firewood and run errands. Along with his mother, father and two sisters, he lives in a small home made of palm leaves and bamboo. It has a multi- purpose room and furnish- ings include a small table and a chair, and grass mats on which they sleep at night. The clothes are placed in cartons. Daily meals consist of rice, vegetables, and boiled fish. It is the mother who works hard to provide for the family since the father is recuperating from his weak lungs. Her monthly income amounts to $22.00. This is just a little back- ground information on our second foster child. We have also been suppor- ting a young girl from Indo- nesia for a number of years, and her name is Yuni Les- tari.

Well, they sure gained their title! Congratulations, guys! The senior boys ended up in fourth place in LOSSA west division, just one spot off advancing to LOSSA. Speaking of winning, our junior girls basketball team are on a winning streak, and we just may have another LOSSA championship team on our hands.
