2 32 THE ORO SCHOOL FAIR is a Township Tradition that has been enjoyed by parents, students, and teachers for many years. Oro School Fair began as a separate event in 1915 sponsored by the Ministry of Agriculture. The Oro School Fair became a part of the Oro World’s Fair in 1948. The School Fair is now funded by the Oro Agricultural Society. Many students of Oro-Medonte take advantage each year of this opportunity to be a part of our rural heritage and to acknowledge the importance of Agriculture in our lives. The relationship between the school and the community is an important one. This tradition serves to strengthen this bond and provides students with curriculum support in many areas of study.

Comparisons

Hope is like a natural spring That flows by nature’s choice;

Trust is like an answered prayer Which makes the soul rejoice.

Faith is like a flower in bloom That grew from humble start,


And love is like a song unsung, But felt within the heart.
