We have now come to the end of the fall term of 2019. It is amazing how quickly the time goes. I can honestly say that it has been a privilege working with the staff and students this term and we have accomplished a lot with the results. After signing 845 student grade documents, it is obvious that our teachers have the time necessary in the calm learning environment to reach the different student ability levels and challenge them accordingly. The results are truly amazing and this is only the first term. I am very much looking forward to seeing what the results will be in the spring after all is done. Now, it is time for a much needed rest, since we have worked so hard. I could not be prouder of all the effort and knowledge obtained. Have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in 2020!
Mr. Brian Tucek, principal
The year 5's have been doing group work this past week creating their own math board games. They had to create a name for their game, write a rule book, and present their game to the class. They could take inspiration from other games they have played or idea's from things they like to do outside of school. Here is one of the many amazing games that they created!
The last two weeks in Year 7 Math, students have investigated fractal and non-linear patterns. They even created a Christmas tree out of Sierpiński triangles! A fractal pattern is a never ending pattern. These Sierpiński triangles divide into smaller equilateral triangles each step in the pattern. Many students got very far in their pattern!
One of our year 9 students made a film from the experience from the French exchange trip. You can see it at the following link.

They obviously had a very good experience to put in all this effort.
Order, structure and safety are necessary prerequisites for learning.
Children should learn to command the English language, not just know it, at an early age.
Our conviction is that every child can achieve success irrespective of social background.
