Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page. We hope the characters and the things they learn and talk about also give the reader a better understanding of our province. Above all, we hope this book challenges your curiosity and encourages you to search for more information about our land. Don McDonald Director of Programs and Services Newfoundland and Labrador Literacy Development Council ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank the many people who so kindly and eagerly helped me during the production of this book.

Box 8700, Confederation Building St. John’s, NL A1B 4J6 Dear Minister Jackman: Effective September 1, 2013 the four English Language School Boards were consolidated into the Newfoundland and Labrador English School Board. The respective Chairpersons for the former boards were: Goronwy Price (Labrador), Don Brown (Western), John George (Nova Central) and Milton Peach (Eastern). The annual report for each school district was prepared in accordance with the Board’s requirements as a category one entity under the Transparency and Accountability Act, and was finalized after September 1, 2013. Therefore, it is my pleasure to present the Annual Report for 2012-2013 on behalf of the former Nova Central School Board. This report provides a balanced summary of the efforts and accomplishments of the Nova Central School Board in respect to the goals that are articulated in its strategic plan 2011- 2014, which addressed four areas: Student academic achievement, student retention, safe and caring schools and school leadership. The Nova Central School Board’s commitment to students and to learning is affirmed by the contents of the Annual Report. I want to thank our trustees and staff who have served the former school board and our students since 2005.

The area was actually settled on a year-round basis until fisher-folk from the Channel Islands established Channel in the early 1700's, although people had been working the south coast fishery year-round for a century before this.
