St Elizabeth Seton

March 23, 2015

I am honoured to be returning to St Elizabeth Seton today.  It was great to be remembered by students from over a year ago.  Two excellent sessions today with students, and this evening over 100 parents in attendance!  Lots of energy this evening with parents.  A special Thank You to the Principal for inviting me back again next year!

After a solid week of rest and family time, I am off to Calgary & Okotoks for the next five days.

Thank You to Brebeuf School in the Toronto Catholic District School Board for inviting me to speak with a select group of students today, and their parents this evening.  It’s a pleasure to be asked back to speak, before even leaving the school grounds.  I appreciate it.  Happy March Break.

Bertie, @NDSB

Fort Erie, Ontario today visiting Bertie School.

Thank You to the Principal for inviting me to her THIRD school, in the past four years.  It’s an honour when a Principal believes in your message to be shared with her students.  Wonderful students today and a great Q&A with the Grade 7/8s.

 

St Gabriel, TCDSB

March 10, 2015

My first visit to St Gabriel (10 months in the making).

Two excellent audiences today.  Some very good Q&A from the Grade 4/5/6s.

Thank You to the parents this evening for putting up with my crackling voice.  Your feedback on tonights presentation was great to read!

St Brigid, YCDSB

March 9, 2015

Three years after my first visit, I returned to St Brigid today.

Great to be back with two student sessions today, and the parents this evening.

Honestly, it was one of the hardest days for me – after suffering for three days with a sinus issue over the weekend.

The simple option would have been to cancel.  But it was not an option for me.

Julliard PS

I returned today to Julliard for a Group of Grade 7s that missed me last time out.

I did not want to let them down – so we found a time for me to get the message in.

St Joachim, Ancaster

March 4, 2015

The best part of today?  Having a Grade 8 girl who attended my presentation during the day, stand in front of parents (including local Police) and tell them FOUR things she did when she left school (based on what she learned), and how 10-15 of her friends did the same thing!

There is no greater feeling… Impacting a child’s life.  Keeping their social media in-check & safe.

We needed extra seats this evening for parents – excellent turnout!

Senator Gibson, @NDSB

March 3, 2015

Two years after my first visit, I returned to Senator Gibson today.

The grade 7/8s were just full of questions, even after the presentation was done.  Excellent interaction.

Thank You to the parents who braved the ice-pellets this evening, to attend the parent presentation.

Niagara Catholic Principals Conference

March 2, 2015

I was able to fit in a 90min presentation to Principals in the Niagara Catholic School Board this afternoon.

Thank You for this amazing opportunity!
