Pizza nights at Haisai North Dufferin Leage report PAGE 3 PAGE 10 News and views in and around Creemore Publications Mail Agreement # 40024973 The beauty and humour of travels on display By Trina Berlo A fascination with the sites and people of Costa Rica has made regular visitors of Paulette and Peter Dennis. Marveling in their daily encounters with locals, transplants and sloths, they have made a record of their travels in Adventures in Costa Rica, which is launching in Creemore August 6-7 with an art exhibit at the Log Cabin. The book contains 25 paintings and drawings by Paulette Dennis and 22 stories by Peter Dennis. The Dennises first visited Costa Rica’s Pacific coast in the winter of 2002 and found it to be beautiful but very hot. They spent the next 13 years travelling to other tropical climates in the winter, in search of their paradise. “ None quite lived up to Costa Rica in calmness or welcoming warmth,” said Paulette.

By Trina Berlo Haisai is always evolving and adapting, says Chef Michael Stadtländer. “With an emphasis on going forward,” he said. “When we re-open we have to re-feel the whole thing.” Haisai has been open on and off in past years but since June Chef Min Young Lee is helping to establish a new concept for the Singhampton restaurant. Although the emphasis on fresh and local hasn’t changed, in its latest incarnation, Haisai is highlighting its gourmet wood fired pizzas on Thursdays with a full menu on Fridays and Saturdays and Sunday brunch. Lee is heading up the kitchen while working in collaboration with Michael and Nobuyo Stadtländer, and the rest of the team. Lee began his career as an apprentice at Eigensinn Farm. He has been there six years and this is his third stint at Haisai. Guests arrive in Singhampton to find Haisai tucked behind a naturalized berm.

The union hosted a session locally, with a focus on creating a paperless classroom. Teachers should be encouraged to manage their classrooms how they see fit, applying their own style. Some teachers embrace technology and others don’t allow any personal electronics in the classroom, but it can safely be said that technology in the classroom is now the norm. From laptops to smart boards, technology is an important element in classrooms. That is not to say that children are learning more, it is just that teaching methods have changed. At NCPS in the last couple of years, the outgoing principal initiated a technology student group, which was designed not only to engage students but also have them share some of their knowledge of technology with teachers. It’s pretty cool when students get to instruct the teachers. We’ve all been there. We have asked our children to set up our iPhones, reset laptops or even program the alarm clock. The younger generation is often more comfortable with the technology of the day but man, kids these days have a heightened level of knowledge and comfort with the rapidly changing communication devices. It’s like their brains work differently and their neural pathways closely resemble a circuit board. It is interesting that teachers are taking time during their summer vacation to catch up with the kids who The Glen Huron Baseball Team of 1971 were the big winners of what Lorne Rowbotham recalls are already living in a paperless world. as the Duntroon Ball League.
