55 - Cape Breton Canada - Grade 5B Mountainview

This is Christine Russell, at the front door of Caithness Horizons!
Christine is their education officer, she was delighted to be asked to model todays paper boats!
Outside is the original stonework, but inside has been transformed. This is where the paper boats will be exhibited and for sale in September 09. They will be for sale by secret silent auction. Centre manager, Beki Pope will also be taking bids by e-mail...........so if you live far away, you can still place a bid for your favouite boat! Details on what to do nearer the time.
Dear Joanne, The Grade 5b class at Mountainview Elementary enjoyed working on this project very much. Please find enclosed a comments list for their boats and some photos of them as well. (It happened to be sports day at the school, hence the team shirts!) Their home room teacher, Mr Ron Martin, has included some information on one of Nova Scotia’s famous sailing schooners, the Bluenose, which is featured on the Canadian dime. This is our school website:
