New Warrendale‘ Centre For Disturbed Children The official start of construc- tion of new facilities to house the operations of Warrendale. a. treatment centre for emotional-' 1y disturbed children took place recently at Thistletown in the Township of Etobicoke. . Start of the building was the‘. culmination of a campaign un-' dertaken in 1963 by Warren- dale and Boys‘ Village which netted $850,000. Obtaining. a suitable site resulted in the de- lay in going ahead with thel Warrendale expansion program. Warrendale was originally es-' tablished in 1916 as a custod- Ial home for girls and sponsor- ed by the Anglican Church.

The board gave approval in more than two classes in the 1965 summer school of honor academic or exploratory surâ€" vey courses. While the bulk of the school curriculum. both during the school year and at summer school is examination oriented. explained Superintendent S. I... (i. Chapman. these courses would not be. The students would be able to recapture. it is hoped. the joy of learning for its own sake. not merely to pass an examination.

' These programs of Christmas music are an an- nual presentation at the school to which parents and friends of the pupils look forward with anticipation. This year's program was no exception and hearty apâ€" plause was an indication of the capacity audience‘s apâ€" preciation of the fine effort of pupils and teachers. ingenuity was evident in the staging of the dramatic portions of “The Wizard of Oz" presented as a choral arrangement by the grades 5 and 6 of the school. Dor- othy. her little dog. the Scarecrow. the Tin Woodsâ€" man. the Cowardly Lion. the Wicked Witch and the Wing- ed Monkeys told the favor- ite children's story as they appeared and disappeared using a portion of the choir as a living screen. This was directed by Miss Phoebe Craig and accompanied by Mrs. Frances Kelly. A carol group composed of volunteers from grades 7 and 8 entertained between the two features with the audience also joining in car- ol singing. For the “Christmas Story" in song. scriptures and tab- leaux. the senior choir. di- rected by Miss Florence Thomson. took its place on stage before a scene of the little town of Bethlehem. Two large "flats" which combined to form a nativ- ity scene opened to reveal the tableaux. This scene- shiftiiig was skillfully hanâ€" dled by the pupils who con- trolled the flats. . The scripture portions of the program were read al~ ternately by Marilyn King and Kip Berry and were in- terspersed by traditional Christmas music from the opening Gloria in Excelsis, through the prophecy, the birth. the adoration. the glor- ification and the finale which included old favorite carols from many countries. Beautiful costtliiiiiig for the tableaux was arranged by Miss .lareth Taylor and the staging was by A. “isâ€" coke. Lighting was used most efectively to high- light the numerous tableaux. The musical selections were all of exveileiit cali- bre. the calibre the public has learned to expect from Macix’illop school choirs. The youthful voices were sweet and harmonious and did full justice to their many selec- tions. Miss Sharron lindfieid was the accompanist for the senior ciioir. Iron down.
