My last day in Ottawa takes me to Steve MacLean PS. The Principal has now allowed to speak at his school twice and it’s his 3rd time seeing my sessions, in three years. I am very thankful for the support. Great group of kids today, along with a parent audience equal to 1.5years ago! Great to see the community support.

Two presentations to the students today at D Aubrey Moodie in the OCDSB. The Grade 7/8 session had a lot of “wow” factor to it. The kids left in amazement at the end of their session. Thank You to the parents (and teachers) who attended this evening.

Parent Council did an excellent job of getting teachers and parents out this evening for the presentation. Thank You for the opportunity to speak with your community.
“It was terrific. I heard Paul speak to kids two years ago at another school. Tonight I was happy to bring my husband. So Informative. Thanks Paul for doing what you do!” – Parent/Teacher – St Theresa

Off to Ottawa for the week, and it starts off at Cedarview Middle School. I arrived at this school as a result of a reference from another Principal (whom I will present to, for a second time – this week). The students were excellent, and a great parent turnout this evening from the school and parents of schools close by. Great community support.
“That was awesome” School Principal
“Mr Davis, I wanted to Thank You for an awesome presentation today at Cedarview Middle School” – Teacher who emailed me tonight

It was an honour this week to receive A letter of reference from a Calgary Police Cyber Crimes Division Officer.
It really meant a lot to read (many times over!).

A mother who attended a presentation three weeks ago, asked for me to speak at a Parent&Family Invite function today (Yes, again on a Friday night). How could I resist! Well, she got families together, and we spend two hours this evening talking at all levels. That is dedication.. for families to allocate their Friday night on education. Thanks for making this happen!

Friday brings me to Summit Heights in the TDSB. Students (along with some of their parents) listened to my message, in a focused 70min session. A Very good group. Before I left – the parent council decided to have me return and speak to the parent community next year, and one teacher asked me to speak at his son’s school… Thank You!

My second visit to Orchard Park. The word-of-mouth from my first visit was very powerful in this community, as we had a GREAT parent turnout this evening. Parents from other schools attended. And to make my day: A mother drove her Grade 6 daughter 165km to see me (from just outside London, ON). Why? Mom saw me last week in London, but her daughter missed the day presentation, and believe she NEEDED to see it. That is truly and honour!

Day one of two in Niagara starts off at Smith PS today. Two presentations to the students followed by the parents tonight. I believe a job is well done, when the Principal asks “when should we have you back”, before you leave! Thank You!
