Hynes said the Olympics of the Mind ‘promotes creative problem solving and teamwork Skills” and required students to work on both a long term project and carry out spon- taneous problem solving: For their long term project, participants chose one of five subjects. The Cassie Hall team had opted for Recycle which required them to develop a non-verbal communication system to guide blind-folded members around a course strewn with trash and obstacles. Hynes said the students had spent four months working on the project and had used as their general theme rats, animals which could be expected to frequent the perimeter of a park. The provincial competition involved making that presenta- tion as well as solving a problem jhey had not encountered before. BRONZE MEDALLISTS in the recent Olympics of the | Mind were Cassie Hall students Jeremy Gwilt (not in order), Jocelyn Coxford, Scott Springer, Christie Brown, Robbie Knezacek, Aisha Manji and Guillaume Rose. 4 They are seen above with parent assistant Marj Brown - (left) and G.A.T:E. teacher Jean Hynes. “ee cosas 4 contact Linda : Pelletier — 7 _ = ae .
