Minus 23 degrees today, and a wonderful visit to tech-savvy Waterloo. Two great sessions with students at Mary Johnston PS and Westvale PS. Thank You to the parents who braved the cold again this evening, and stayed for over TWO hours with me. Great audience interaction. Thanks for allowing me to speak with your community.

Thank You All Saints CES for inviting me back after two years to speak with your students and parents. A very attentive group of students! I appreciate the parents who braved the cold to turn out this evening, and your amazing feedback for me.

I was proud to share with the Principal today that the Grade 7/8 session went into overtime, and lasted 92min! That is a new record, considering my presentation to the 7/8s is maximum 55min. The students were engaged and interactive! It was my pleasure to stay and keep answering their questions! Thank You to the parent council for making this evening a success – many more parents than we had two years ago!

The Blythwood parent council did a great job in getting a wonderful parent turnout this evening. I know I ran into over-time, but the fact that you all stayed throughout, and that your Principal had to ask some of you to “go home” was great! I love it when parents stay to ask more questions! The students took the message home and made changes right after the day was done. Thanks to the Principal and parents who shared their stories with me today of what the kids did once they got home!

Amazing what a community can accomplish. Today I spoke with students at WG Davis Senior PS, and it’s feeder school. This evening I spoke with parents from schools in the surrounding area, and the day was a tremendous success! Thanks for this wonderful opportunity, and amazing feedback!

On a cold, minus 18 degree evening, I got an opportunity to visit the CTV News Channel Studio tonight and talk about the Snapchat issue, and the leaked database. Thank You CTV for allowing me to speak and guide on the topic. www.ctvnews.ca

A great return to Nellie McClung PS in YRDSB. A wonderful reception by the students, and those who remembered me from two years ago. Thanks to the parents who attended this evening, all considered that we were four days from school break. And – THANK YOU for already inviting me back for Anti-Bullying week during the next school year – That is a great compliment.

Off to Woodstock and Ste-Marguerite-Bourgeoys & École Notre Dame. Two great student audiences (the higher grades had some serious faces on them) today. Thanks to the parents who shook off the snow/cold to attend, and for their great feedback.
