Grade 6 Reward Day!

Congratulations to our Grade 6 class who filled their gem jar!!  The students will participate in their reward day on Thursday December 22 in the afternoon.  They are welcome to bring in tech and headphones, wear their pajamas, and bring a special snack.  I will also be playing classic Christmas movie - clue:  it's in black and white starring Natalie Wood!!

Technology in the Classroom!

I will never be done developing my skills as a digital leader!  In the words of Instructional Coach, Jim Knight, we need to continue to identify, learn and improve as a leader and this absolutely applies to using technology in our professional practice.  Digital leaders guide their staff to see the value of integrating technology and social media in their pedagogy. As a digital leader, I will help others realize the benefits of incorporating technology into the classroom.  #PQP10

So Many Saints!

Congratulations to our Grade 6 Saints at our Saints Fair held December 2, 2016!!  I was so proud of the work and dedication the students put into their projects.  A Saintly Success!!

Grade 4 Gumball Reward Day!

Hello Parents and Guardians,

WAY TO GO GRADE 4!!  The Grade 4 Students have filled their gumball jar and have chosen to have a PJ, Stuffy and Tech morning on November 23, 2016.  If you do not wish to send a tech device with your child that day, I will provide an iPad for them to use that day.

Remembrance Day 2016

Lest We Forget

A special thank you to Lt. Colonel Taylor for visiting our Grade 4 class to talk about his amazing experiences in the Canadian Military.  Michaela did a wonderful job explaining about the work her Dad does!

An inspiring quote from Lt. Colonel Taylor:
"Find your passion and follow it.  Never stop learning."

Thank you to all our veterans and current military for their service.  God Bless You.
