      Recently students at 
      
      St-Joseph
      
      Catholic
      
      School
      
      
      in Hanmer have participated in a Lip Sync Competition. 
      Our Grade 1 students won 1st place and our Kindergarten came 2nd
      place. We are very proud of our Grade 3 students who did a spectacular
      performance. |

      This extra curricular activity exposed talented artists from Wawa
      through to 
      
      Warren
      
      . 
      Students are given the opportunity to listen to and develop an
      appreciation for our French music.  They
      learn to perform in front of a large audience which encourages them to
      gain self-confidence.  Finally,
      performing in groups, teaches students how to work cooperatively. What a
      GREAT opportunity!  | 
  
  
      | 
  
  
     
      Our students are eager to participate in this competition every
      year. As for the parents, they are very proud of their children for doing
      such a fantastic performance. 
         We thank all of the
      special people who made this activity possible such as our parents, our
      students, our teachers and our School Board!

             C’est
            chaque jour qu’il faudrait dire des  
            mots d’amour à nos mamans!

       Les
      amis de St-Joseph ont cherché à combler ce désir en visitant les résidentes
      du Centre Elizabeth à Blezard Valley. Les mamans du Centre et le
      personnel étaient réjouis d’entendre nos enfants chanter quelques
      chansons d’amour. Cependant, leur cœur de maman était encore plus
      touché lorsque chaque petit ami leur a remis une carte de souhait
      accompagnée d’un œillet. Quel bonheur, quelle joie de nous réunir
      autour de toutes ces mamans!

             Beavers, Cubs And Scouts
            Distribute Apples To Residents of Valley East During Annual
            Fund-Raiser

    Lynn Lachance, a Cub Leader with the 1st Valley East Scouts, is shown with
    her 8-year old daughter, Roxanne, during the Annual Apple Day fund-raising
    drive held in Valley East on Saturday, October 7, 2006. Roxanne attends
    Grade 3 at Ecole St. Joseph on St. Anthony Street and has been a member of
    the organization for 3 years. Roxanne's brother, Andre, is also a Cub. He
    was selling apples in another section of the mall at the time the photo was
    taken.
     Lynn speaks very highly of the 1st Valley East Scouting group and feels
    it provides an excellent experience for young children. This year there are
    36 young boys and girls registered in the organization. There are 15 Beavers
    (aged 5 to 8); 15 Cubs (aged 8 to 11); and 6 Scouts (over 11 years of age). 
    The Beavers and Cubs meet every Wednesday evening at St. Anne School in
    Hanmer, while the Scouts meet every Tuesday at the same place. Other
    activities and outings take place on weekends during the year which runs
    from September to May.

     Debbra
    Christianson, shown in the photo to the right, Scout Leader with the 1st Valley East Scouts,  holds up a
    display board that was used at the Hanmer Valley Shopping Centre during
    registrations which were held in September. 
    This marked the first time that the scouts have used the mall for
    registrations and Debbra was pleased with the response. 
    "We gained nine new members while we were in the mall, so it was
    very worthwhile for us to be there," she explained. 
    If anyone is still interested in joining this great organization, you can
    call Debbra at 969-7095 or Olivia Lobbon at 222-8878.
