Friday afternoon brought me to San Marco CES. Another rare Friday that I speak, but the Principal wanted a presentation before the school break. It was a great session with the Grade 6/7/8s, and we went into overtime, with all the Q&A. Thank You for having me speak to your students!

Over 500 students today, in two great sessions. Excellent parent turnout this evening – well done Parent Council! Thanks for a great day at your school, and a awesome way to end off the week in Ottawa!

From Ottawa to Arnprior and a visit to John XXIII CES. Thankfully the Ice Storm was over-hyped! Thank You to this wonderful community for allowing me to speak to your students and parents. The parents had a great sense of humour, and we hit the 120min mark! No-one wanted to leave. I love that!

A large school with two awesome groups today. The grade 7/8 audience has the presence of two Ottawa Police Officers in attendance (I would like to thank them for their support). Great support from the parents this evening. Thank You for having me at your school!

First order of business in December is my trek to Ottawa and St Andrew CES. And a great day it was! We reached our capacity seating this evening for parents! A big Thank You to the young lady in grade 5 who made a Rainbow Loom for me tonight while her mom was learning! Both student groups had great questions – and went home with a message that had more parents show up than expected!

It’s Friday! Yes – I spoke on a Friday! I visited St Davids to update the Grade 7/8s on a topic so near and dear to them. Very rewarding to be remembered from two years ago, and to have so many great questions. Thank You!

My last day in the region and in the French Catholic Board was at L’Essor High School, in Tecumseh. Two great sessions with students, and a wonderful interactive session with parents this evening. The principal provided excellent feedback from the students and their parents, along with the written forms. Thanks for a great day!!

My second day in the French Catholic School Board at M. Augustin-Caron. One of the most attentive group of students I have ever presented to. I walked into the gym thinking it was empty, and there sat groups of students waiting to start! Their questions caused us to run over our allotted time in both sessions… and that is a great sign of their interest in security.

My first visit to Ecole St-Ursule with the students and parents in the small town of McGregor. A wonderful reception and great support from the parents this evening. Thank You for inviting me to speak with your community.

Thank You to the community of St Louis in Leamington for an excellent day with the students and parents. I appreciate Constable Silvano from the OPP attending yet another presentation – Thank You for your continued support.
