CE 5 i le RN A A pal id RR 1 RE a mn oi a Ze I | | "A Family Tradition for 131 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, February 18, 1997 - 15 Board sends out warning From Page 1 them to give the students a safety message," said Ms. Brown. "This sort of message is common; we do it on a reg- ular basis. With the recent incidents we feel it is a good idea to remind the children what to do, espe- cially the little ones." Ms Brown says that Durham police had sent the board an e-mail on safety tips and were asked to passit along. "The children should know that if anything hap- pens, it should be report- ed. We've been fortunate though, there hasn't been an abduction since I've been here at the board," said Ms. Brown, a 12-year employee at the Durham Board of Education. According to Bill Bode, the principal at Cart- wright Central Public School, teaching the chil- dren how to be safe is part of the curriculum at his school. "It's part of the program and is reviewed on a regu- lar basis. We talk about street-proofing the stu-- dents and it is an ongoing lesson for the kids." All local public and sep- arate elementary schools in Scugog Township re- ceived messages from their boards, and all took time to give the students a little reminder.

A. Cawker P. S. in Port Perry, read the board's bulletin to kids be- fore they left for the day Friday afternoon. "We're just telling kids not to accept rides from strangers," he said, add- ing that there's a fine line between sharing impor- tant information with the youngsters, and frighten- ing them with dire warn- ings. "You don't want to scare the wits out of them," he said. "The kids can get very, very scared." Fortunately most of the kids attending Cawker take the bus, he said. Durham Regional Police are also asking that chil- dren be careful and know what todo if anything hap- pens. "There are street- proofing programs in the schools as well as bro- chures and pamphlets," said Sgt. Ken Hudson of Port Perry's 26 Division.

"We ask the kids to be mindful, careful and cau- tious and to report any- thing to their parents, teachersor tous." R. H. Cornish principal Rick Dedong stresses that while the children are taught to be careful and safe at school, an impor- tant part of what they learn comes from their home. "Parents are always cautious and have good reason to be. Mom and Dad should talk to them around the supper table and tell them what to do. "The children need to know to use common sense when approached by strangers and should find a teacher or parent if any- thing happens. "They need to be aware because those big-city problems could happen in our small town." Video SUPER Store BIRTHDAY FORTHCOMING MARRIAGE son of Carol Law of Oshawa.
