United Nations Day Observed mot, .. «■ It - w Hl JKh if

Pictured above is Maria Holland, a sixth grader at St. Pat’s, who is reading a Yiddish tale from Eastern Europe to her “Family CirSt. Patrick School, in Walkerton, celebrated United Nations Day and International Forgiveness day, on Thursday, Oct. 24, by wearing the flag colors of their family place of origin. To gain a better understanding of various national cultures, the sixth grade students read books telling the folk tales of different countries. These stories represented the Chinese, Japanese, Yiddish, Mayan, Maori, South African, Ethiopian, Vietnamese and others. Since the student body has been grouped into 10 “family circles” that include members from all grades, the “Heads” of each circle had time to read one story to the family members during the celebration. After the story, families ate lunch together and then joined together to walk through town holding the posters they had made to proclaim their negative stance toward drugs. They chanted various songs on their march. This march is an annual event that climaxes “Red Ribbon Week,” a national celebration to raise awareness of the danger of using any type of drug. Students wore red ribbons all week to remember the lessons they were learning in their respective classes. Red Ribbon Poster & Essay Contest Winners At NLES Boys and girls from kindergarten to third grade at North Liberty Elementary participated in the Red Ribbon poster and essay contest as part of the drugfree activities. Judging the contest were Myrna Daube, Pearl Frailey and Polly Klopfenstein. The students in the fourth, fifth and sixth grade wrote essays, stories, poems and raps.
