School, delighted the audience
with her talk on the problems the
elementary school student meets
when he graduates into Junior
High, Mrs, Leitner stressed that
this: change is very hard on the
children. It takes about five
weeks for the student to adjust
to the new school, where every-
thing is so different from Ele-
mentary.school and where there
are so many new rules for them
to. sabide by. At- this stage the

of
talks on two important phases in
a child's school life, Mrs, F.
Heagy, ‘a former teacher, had as
her topic “The Beginner”, and
told of various ways that parents
can help get the beginner off to
a good start. Mrs. Heagy sug-
gested that in the few months
before school starts the beginner
should try to get in the routine
of school hours by having snacks
and naps at times which will
correspond to the free time he
will have once he is in school.

coloring. A final word of cau-
tion’ was expressed regarding the
usé of the school and teachers as
a threat in an effort té make

or be different from each other,
either in action or dress, There
should be nothing elaborate for
these first year students. Mrs,
Leitner mentioned that the Stan-
ley Humphries school leans
heavily to white ankle socks,
simple hair-do's and sweaters,
and skirts for the girls, About
the boys, Mrs, Leitner said, “you
just won't get them into long
johns"! This is due to the fact
that these boys will be changing
into.their gym strip for P.E, and
time is limited. Regarding studies,
the speaker felt that these stu-
dents of grade 7 should form good
study habits in this first year.
A maximum of one hour’s home-
work is required, although some
of them put in much more time

tate to ask the teachers to help
