The week of January 11 had been designated “Elementary School Orientation Week" by Thornhill Secondary School and students from other school areas also visited during the week. Previously. students had spent only half a day observing the secondary school schedule. The health, safety and re- creation committee report indicated that a smoking and health information kit had been given to all staff members. The kits included an extensive group of pub- lications collected by the Department of Education. drawing attention to the re- lationship between smoking and health. The education committee re- port noted that as it is now posâ€" sible for local boards to sponsor winter courses for certificate credit, the same as those offered in the summer by the Depart- ment of Education, a meeting of inspectors has been arranged to set up such courses. ’ The courses will be further tested in various schools during the winter. One important con- lclusion of the committee was that “if a child is going to prac- itise inquiry in science, pencil. ipaper and crayons are not enough. The learner must have material to see and feel and measure, and simple equipmenti to carry this out. There is no other way to do it." i ' The board of TSA 1 Markham contributed to the work of the‘ Ontario Curriculum Institute by contributing 10c per pupil in the‘ system each year, as do many other boards.
