Happy National Custodial Workers Day!

We are very fortunate to have such a hard-working, dedicated team of custodians and maintenance staff throughout our schools. These individuals help maintain the cleanliness and safety of each and every classroom, office, meeting spaces and much more. We are so very thankful to our friends, who help make our buildings shine – inside and out!

“On behalf of all the staff and students at
Marymount Academy, we wish to extend a huge thank you to Gerry & all the custodial staff. Our Marymount family would not be the same
without Gerry’s hard work and dedication to making our building look incredible.”

– Aaron Barry, Principal at Marymount Academy

“ Ron Martin is our custodian and is amazing at his job.
He never complains, is always positive and helpful. He goes above and beyond his job description every day! We are very lucky to have him at Immaculate.”

– Kim Coluzzi, Principal at Immaculate Conception

“Claudio Ronchin is a valuable member of the
St James staff. He is always in a good mood and ready to help. He is very generous and kind. He is a very dedicated employee and he takes pride in his work. The school building and grounds are well maintained and cared for.”

– Lucie Cullen, Principal at St. James

“Every Child Matters” at St. David Catholic School

The Native Language students at St. David Catholic School embarked on a campaign of education. Students promoted and educated their peers on “Orange Shirt Day”. This day of remembrance was started by Phyllis Webstad. Ms. Wedstad wore an orange shirt on her first day at residential school when she was six years old. When the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation student arrived at the school, her shirt was removed and taken away.

Webstad began her annual Orange Shirt campaign in 2013 and has since shared her story with thousands of Canadians. St. David School was proud to participate in celebrating the resilience of the families impacted by the residential school system.

St. David Catholic School Takes Advantage of the Warm Weather and Brings Reading Instruction Outdoors

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.

“Measuring Up” at St. David School

St. David students continue to learn how numeracy is everywhere in the real world. St. David School teaches mathematical skills across the curriculum and this includes the Core French program taught by Mr. Louis Mailloux. “The students have the opportunity to build flower boxes and build their confidence. They have fun, see real world math skills in action and learn a second language all at the same time”. These hands-on opportunities contribute to the development of a broader and deeper understanding of numeracy.
