Archie Badham, spokesman for the Fitzroy Harbour group, told the board he heard Grade 7 and Grade 8 pupils at Fitzroy Harbour would be forced to go to the Kinburn school in September. The Fitzroy Harbour school has three classrooms, eight grades and three teachers. Mr.

Badham called for an additional room. Mr. Arthur said the board ignate Blackburn as a kindergarten to Grade 4 school and Glen Ogilvie as a school for kindergarten and Grades 4 to 8.

Both the Blackburn Hamlet group and parents from Fitzroy Harbour were arguing against sending children to schools outside their neighborhoods. But the board decided that for several reasons it would be wise to send Blackburn Hamlet children in Grades 1 to 4 to Blackburn school. The parents wanted them sent to Glen Ogilvie school which, they said, was closer than Blackburn.

Mr. Arthur informed the Fitzroy Harbour delegation that the board had made no decision on whether to transfer Grade 7 and 8 pupils from Fitzroy Harbour school to Fitzroy Centennial school in Kinburn, eight miles away. A dead isue Members of the Blackburn Hamlet group attempted to start a discussion with the board on their problem, but Mr. Arthur ruled it wasn't necessary as it had been thrashed out at an education committee meeting.

Mr. Hill claimed Glen Ogilvie, not yet completed, could accommodate all grades. Glen Ogilvie is within walking distance of most Blackburn Hamlet residents. Pupils are now transported to Blackburn school but must leave at 8 a.m. and do not return until 4 p.m., he said.
