The Sudbury Catholic District School Board is recognizing October as Attendance Awareness Month to convey the message that every school day counts. Students will have the opportunity to participate in an Attendance Awareness Month Poster contest. 3 winners will receive gift cards. The top poster chosen will be showcased throughout all schools within the board and will be used for the remainder of the year in the attendance awareness campaign.
Join us in our effort to make every day count!
St. David Catholic School has embraced the unusually warm weather by bringing classroom instruction outside. Classroom teacher, Terri-Lynn Lepage believes that “children benefit from being outside not only for physical activity, but also to enjoy the trees, rocks and the natural beauty that surrounds us. When we are outside completing academic work, the students are more focused and are able to work independently. They enjoy being outside of the classroom and are learning to appreciate nature as an extension of our classroom”.
St. David School was fortunate to access a 2016 TD Friends of the Environment Grant to create an outdoor learning space in nestled in nature. The newly build learning environment is regularly used by classes to promote experiential learning opportunities for students from the full day kindergarten program to grade 6.
Our Student Senate began their 2017-2018 year with their first official meeting on September 18, 2017! The team met at Marymount Academy in the brand new Learning Commons to discuss how they are going to make an impact on Sudbury Catholic Schools this year!
We were honoured to welcome our international students to Sudbury Catholic Schools for the 2017-2018 school year! The 11 students are from various places in China and Vietnam and are completing studies in our Secondary schools this year.
We welcomed our new friends with a traditional Canadian BBQ, featuring chicken and porketta sausage cooked by St. Benedict Catholic Secondary School teacher Mike Sipos (winner of Cook for Me Sudbury in 2015).
We are so grateful to our host families for guiding our students in their journey and thankful for our wonderful staff for their leadership in providing educational opportunities for all. We hope all students involved in the program have a successful and inspirational year!
We want to welcome all new and returning students to a brand new school year! Let’s make the 2017-2018 school year the best one yet!
