Who May Take Lunch To School Still Undecided 1 York County Board of Education ran into heavy water when trustees discuss- éd school lunch policy at a board meeting August 25. While rural representatives were shocked at the sugges- tion that many elementary school children would not be allowed to take their lunches to school. urban trustees were concerned about the added burden on the teacher (and the board. "It is a matter bf basic’ philosophy." she declared. "Is the board to be respon- sible for children from nine to four?" The hour and one half lunch period was too long for children to fill in at school at noon. argued Rich- mond Hill Trustee Deena Simpson. Trustee Les Burrows of Sutton, on the other hand. commented, “It is a shock to think a child cannot take his lunch to school. They should be permitted to do so if they so desire. A number of par- ents leave home at 7 am and commute to work. The chil- dren are On their own." Trustee Merna Colbourne of the Town of Markham asked that the staff policy be amended to permit children of mothers who were the sole. aubpdrt of families to take their lunches. and that it also make provision for family emergencies in which case the principal could use his --~ A - .

"It is standard procedure She objected strongly. however. to the idea of the board supplying “babysitting service" from 7 am to 6 pm because the parents were at work. “I would fire a principal who did not use discretion in considering a family emerg- ency," Director Sam Chap- man assured her. The policy would permit all children who travel to school by bus to stay for lunch. except kindergarten children. All children who live more than a mlle from school will be allowed to stay at school for lunch. also children in grades 1 to 3 who live more than three-quarters of a mile from the school. During the winter â€" De- cember to March. all stu- dents living more than three- quarters of a mile from school may take their lunch. and children with health problems may take their lunch, although they will re- quire a doctor’s certificate if the condition extends beyond three days. “We may be asking chil- dren to walk home on roads their parents may not want them to walk on. and I can- not accept this." protested Trustee Marvin Hunter of King Township. “There may be traffic problems in rural areas. We had no problems the past when children "It is standard procedure in rural areas for children to take their lunch to school." agreed Whitchurch Trustee Arthur Starr. “A mile and a half is too far for a small child to walk on a highway like Don Mills Road." Miss Sarah Gibson has re- turned from a six-week trip to Europe. Sarah flew to Vienna. visited Rhodes and Greece, tom‘â€" ed Austria by car and spent King Trustee David Bach- ley suggested the staff re- view school lunch policy to differentiate between regula- tions for schools in rural and urban areas. In some rural schoOls. he pointed out, ten pupils might be obliged to go home for lunch while 300 stayed at school. and this could be considered discrim- inatory. Miss Ann Duncan spent her entire holiday visiting many places in Europe. and Miss Betty Arbuckle spent six weeks in the British Isles. Mr. and Mrs. William Ash. Most trustees agreed that policies of the former area boards had worked very well for them and questioned the need for a change. “We had no trouble in the spring. Are we being flooded with children who want to take their lunches?" asked Aurora Trustee Keith Nis- bet. AS a county board. said Chairman John MacKay. they had to adopt a uniform policy.

The board agreed to de- lete a staff recommendation that teachers be encouraged to arrange for recreational activities at noon such as sports. games. music. drama. library use, home economics or industrial arts clubs.

Friends in the community were sorry to le'arn of the sud- den paSSing of Orval Glausser of Toronto at. his home. Wed- nesday evening of last week. “If you want different policies in rural and urban areas yau will have to decide what is rural and what is ur- ban, or we will have princi- pals doina different things and you will have no choice but to support me and to support the principal in whatever he does." declared Mr. Chapman. To have no policy. he said. would be to invite confusion. Gormley WI met August 27 at the home of Mrs. Roy Smith. Mrs. Russ Ellas presided over the meeting and the roll call. Mrs. Nisbet. commented that there were inconsisten- cies in lunch hour policy. In secondary schools. he said. students who live only a block from the school have to get parental signatures before they are allowed to go home for lunch. Bishop Roy Sider of Sherks- ton was in charge of the Aug- ust 24 morning worship service at Heise Hill Church for the in- stallation of the new pastor Rev. Andrew McNiven. The evening service was conducted by Wilbur Cadell of the People's Church. Willowdale. representing the Gideons. No one spoke against a clause requiring that ar- rangements to purchase milk be made for students who stay at school for lunch every day. Mrs. Colbourne moved that the board adopt the policy to avoid confusion when school opens and review it again in April. Guest speaker at August 24 services at the Missionary Church was Mr. Pettigrew who came from Iridia‘ last January and is working with World Vision in Toronto. -The motion was defeated and the policy returned to staff for further study.

The 40-clause taxi bylaw was referred back to com- mittee. August 26, after Councillor Robert Lewis warned that by not control- ling the rates council was leaving residents to the whims of the township‘s one cab company. “By leaving it wide open we’re putting the public in the position of having to pay whatever these one or two cabs want to be paid," he said. Councillor Norman Barn- ard. a retired industrialist. said he didn't. think council had the authority to sét the fee structure. “Competition will take care of it." he said. “Then you're not protect- ing the public,” countered Mr. Lewis. “I don‘t think I’m requir- ed to protect them in that sense,” Mr. Barnard shot back. He said that if the pres- ent company over-charged it wouldn’t be very long be- fore another company start- ed up.
