Members paid all the expenses for the dinner among themselves. “And this year we have all you people to thank for helping to put over this new school now being completed at Centre and Sussex Streets in Richmond Hill." The first school for retarded children in this area was found- ed in 1954 and it consisted of accommodatgon in the Thornhlll Public School â€" for four llttle pupils. Later the school had two rooms in the Charles Howitt Pub- lic School and, for the next few years upwards of 30 students went to school on Bayvlew Aven- ue. For the new school, 34 child- ren are already enrolled. By this time next week it is expected that these 34 children will be in their new, permanent school and as one member of the Steering Committee put'lt, "It’s going to be so wonderful for the children and their parents â€" to be able to point to this school of theirs with pride.” Miss Ketola will continue as principal of the new school. Since September Miss Ketola has taught the child- ren in Wrixon Hall and she took the opportunity at the testimonial dinner to thank both the Rev. and Mrs. J. O'Neil and Sexton Will- iam Scrivener by saying. ‘We have enjoyed our stay here so much â€"- you have been so kind and co-operative." Mr. George Sweeney. chairman for the forthcoming 1960 cam- paign, who was also called upon to say a few words, stated. “We can‘t state accurately the number of retarded children there are in Canada but figures we do have show three per cent of the popul- ation is mentally retarded at some time or another. Of these, one per cent will require lifelong help."
