Welcome Message
Happy New Year! It is hard to believe that we are already nearing the end of Term One here at Country Hills! Already during this first week back, the students and staff are showing their extraordinary talents, abilities and achievements! They consistently demonstrate their caring and compassion each day and continue to impress and humble me with even their smallest actions. Our tremendous focus on high academic achievement and optimizing student success is demonstrated in our classrooms each day!
When we look back on the achievements of our students since the fall, we proudly acknowledge their growth academically and socially. With the continued positive encouragement and cooperation of a very supportive community, our students have made significant gains both
individually and collectively.
Our students continue to benefit from a wide variety of academic and extra curricular programs and opportunities offered by a skilled, knowledgeable and caring staff. Activities such as running club, volleyball, basketball, gymnastics, Kodaly choir, skating, student secretaries, milk monitors, lunchroom helpers, peer mediators, PALS, ECO Team, kindergarten helpers, safety patrollers, etc. provide students the opportunity to demonstrate how productive and successful citizens create a truly wonderful environment.
Looking ahead, the rest of the school year will naturally be filled with more learning and many rewarding experiences. January will bring us together on many occasions - our Annual Family Skate Night is on January 25th. from 6:30-8:30 p.m. In February, we hope you join us again for our Bingemans Family Fun Night at Funworx on Monday, February 27th from 5:00-8:00 p.m.
The staff of Country Hills Public School sincerely thanks those parents who have taken the time to write us a note or passed along comments of appreciation and support during the past year. We extend best wishes to our students and their families for a happy and healthy 2012!
