Dictionary Project
The
Don Mills Rotary Club held another great Dictionary Project
again this year by providing free Miriam Webster dictionaries to
under-privileged Grade 5 students in Toronto.
In May 2010, the club visited Daystrom Public School located
near Weston Ave. and Finch Ave. and held a "Word-of-the-Day"
contest.
In
June 2010,
the club visited Blacksmith
Public School near Steeles Ave. and Keele St. and held a poetry
contest.
The first picture shows Rotarian Vicki with two students from
Blacksmith showing off the prizes for their winning poems.
The second picture shows the three winning students with loving
Principal Tabacoff in the middle and three very dedicated
Rotarians.
Thank you to Principal Tabacoff at Daystrom Public School for
her coordination and help, Andrew Wood at Blacksmith Public
School for his dedication and initiative, Dale Scheerer at
Rotary Cares for acquiring the dictionaries, and Joan Hayward
for spear-heading the whole initiative.
