Principal's Message

Dear parents and friends:

525,600 minutes; 525,000 moments so dear... How do you measure a year, measure a year? How about love? Measure in love. You know that love is a gift from up above: Share love, give love, spread love. Measure your life in love. It's time now to sing out, for the story never ends. Let's celebrate, remember a year in the life of friends ("Seasons of Love", Rent).

 At our year-end celebration assembly, students, parents, Fr. Gerry, Fr. Joe, and special guests gathered in thanksgiving for the people, relationships, learning experiences, and memories that have filled the last ten months. As we revisited our school year, we prayed, we laughed, we shed a tear or two, and we celebrated our learning, our service, and our community. Each class presentation was a unique representation of their experiences. During the assembly, we also had an opportunity to present our $2020.00 to the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary for St. Rose Primary and St. Angela Home in Lesotho. Keith and Renee debuted their first music video which was filmed in May in our school with students from our grades five and six classes. You can find this video on You Tube: Search "Keith and Renee The One". We also said goodbye to Mrs. Watson who is retiring after 20 years at St. Ignatius School, and we congratulated Mrs. Probetts on 35 years of service at St. Ignatius School.

As this school year draws to a close, we are reminded that with every interaction, every conflict, and every triumph, we are living together as a community, created for each other to learn, to share our faith, and to grow in our journey to live in His name. Thank you for the privilege of educating your children; Thank you for your involvement in their education; Thank you for sharing in the vision of a bright future for our community.

I wish you a safe, restful, and fun-filled summer vacation. Classes resume on Wednesday, September 8 at 8:50 a.m. All students are required to drop off their school supplies between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 7. Please note that all families are required to hand in their YELLOW fee assessment form and P.E. uniform order form that day.

Thank you for the privilege of educating your children;

 Danielle Kolton
