Display features Anne Frank
Michael Grobenhan and Steve Chess have been com^ missioned by the Vancouver Playhouse to prepare library displays throughout the Lower Mainland in celebration of the Playhouse's 25th anniversary.^
Their current display has been mounted in the North Vancouver Lynn Valley library, 1280 E. 27th avenue.

craft and the stories of Ann and her family.
**We hope through this display to apprise the general reading public of the issue-oriented nature of many Playhouse productions while developing interest in only one true life story that was far more dramatic than any stage production could ever be,*' they said.
One can only hope that the display will be far more interesting and vital than the actual Playhouse production. In the JWB (Nov. 13, 1986) this reviewer described the production as^^potent as a line of chalk on a white picket fence.") G.P.

youngsters would be able to enter courses at a familiar level as they travelled from country to country.
The enriched teaching caught the attention of educators and has been put into place in several loc^l high schools.
In a telephone interview with Jl*'^ Peraya explained that courses are accelerated and are richer than those in the provincial core.
Grade ten provides a preparatory year. "It gives you a chance to mess up," she said. In grades 11 and 12 students can work towards a full
diploma or towards LB. certificates in individual courses.
She found ihe course in the theory of knowledge really exciting. "It taught me how to think," she said..
Now a^pokespersqn for the program Peraya finds' that many students share worries that she had before entering — Will I spend all my time doing homework? What will happen^to my social life? Will I lose niy friends?
Shediscovered that most of her fears were unfounded: she began to use her study time more effectively, she lost very few friends and found many new friends in her class with whom she had much in common. "Grade 12 was my most social year," she said.
"I thank my mother 700 times a day because she made me take the program," she exclaimed.
Learning is not done just by rote, she added, but through a realgive and take during class. "The program teaches you to take responsibility for your own education."
Of the 21 Churchill students who sat the I. B. exam in May 18 earned the full diploma.
Peraya is the daughter of Faye Peraya and Jacques Peraya. Her grand parents are Abe and Sarah Bialoglowsky. She has a brother Michael, 11.
