' Roberta Bondar visits Central Park On March 28, astronaut Roberta Bondar, Chair of Canada Trust's Friends of the Environment Foundation came to Central Park to acknowledge the community based tree planting project undertaken by the Glebe Community Association and local volunteers. She addressed a number of area residents, project organizers, local officials, and a group of Grade 3, 4 and 5 students from Mutchmor Public School. Her visit was one of several in the area organized by FEF Ottawa Chair, Steve McCormick, to view community based environmental initiatives supported in part by FEF funding. Since the Central Park Re-Planting project began in 1992 it has received $1,500 in funding; $500 from Canada Trust in 1993, and $500 each from the Glebe Report and the City of Ottawa's Recreation & Culture Department. Labour, assistance and training have come from many other sources as well. The Patterson Creek Park tree planting initiative also received $500 from Friends of the Environment.

May 1, 1994 - Glebe Report - 27 SCHOOL NEWS Citizenship Court goes to schoo

BY FARIDA TAVARES People from all over the world, literally, gathered at Ridgemont High School on April 20 to mark a unique day for staff and students, who not only participated in swearing in 47 new citizens, from 23 different countries, but also dedicated a multicultural mural to the community. The event was a unique celebration of Citizenship Week. Shirley Druhan, a law teacher at Ridgemont, was instrumental in bringing this real citizenship court to the school for a public ceremony, presided over by Judge Dover-Cohen, who welcomed the new Canadians to our country in a very moving ceremony. These proud new members of our society ranged from student Samuel Casaya to a neuro-psy- chologist and his family, a mix of people who have brought their skills and cultural heritage to further enrich our country.
