Welcome Back!

Hello Parents,


Have a great summer!  I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching your children this year.  Enjoy your summer holidays.   All the best in highschool next year!


I hope everyone had a relaxing spring holiday.  The students are rested and already working hard, way to go!!!!   We have lot's of fun and exciting activities prepared for the students.    Let's continue to be focused, disciplined and really apply ourselves.  I am looking forward to making our last two months together the best!!!!!


Thank you so much to all the parents and students that came to the Parent/Teacher conferences on April 1st.  I enjoyed chatting and setting goals for Term 3 with each one of you.  I know that our grade eight students are getting anxious to move on to high school.  Let's remember to be respectful and finish off the year on a positive note.  If you have any questions or concerns,  please come in to see me or call the school or send me an e-mail.  Looking forward to a wonderful, and fun filled Spring!


Welcome back everyone!  What a wonderful holiday.  I was in  Cancun with my family.  Time flies when you are having fun.  This is my first week back and it has been very cold. The class seems rested and is all ready working hard.  I am looking forward to a great 2011!  Remember the door is always open.  Stay warm and we will see you soon.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  Relax and enjoy the time with your families.  I will see you  in the New Year.

Thank you so much for coming to the conferences on Friday.  I enjoyed meeting with you and your children.  It has been three busy months and everyone seems to be getting into the groove of our Senior Pod.  I'm looking forward to December being fun and full of exciting activities.  Keep in touch and remember the door is always open.

I am thrilled to be starting my third year at Jack MacKenzie and look forward to a year filled with challenges and fun for your children!  I have been teaching since 1991, and I know already that this year will be one of the best I've ever taught.

What an excellent week!!!  I have enjoyed getting to know everyone.  The students are working hard, focused and eager to start a new year.  I am so excited to work with all of you, it is going to be a fantastic year. Have a wonderful long weekend, and enjoy the time with your family.

What a fantastic job Mrs. Hinz and the grade seven and eights did on the Christmas  Stomp Production, Wow!!!!  Way to go everyone!!!
