When it’s this cold – it’s a great day to be indoors.  Great group of students today at Cardinal Newman CES.  Both sessions ran overtime due to the excellent questions being asked.  Thank You to the parents who attended and their positive feedback this evening

A great day in Midland visiting Bayview PS.  Teacher involvement in Q&A was great support for their students in attendance.  Thank You to the Midland Police Officer who attended our intermediates session.  Thank You to the parents who attended this evening, and sharing your stories of what your children had to say about their presentations.

Pine River ES & Angus Morrison ES

Double duty called today in speaking with two schools in Angus.  Both large groups were attentive and had great questions.  It was great to reach so many children in one day.  Thanks to the parents of both schools for attending and your feedback.  I appreciate the opportunity to have spoken at your schools

St Fidelis CES

February 7, 2010

The worst snowstorm to hit in years did not deter the attendance of dedicated parents who wanted to hear an important message.  Your children were the captive audience and were great listeners.  The parents had a choice… and I thank you for braving the elements and attending this evening!  A great day all together!  And we all made it home..

Double Duty today!  Great start to the day speaking at St Ambrose CES (with another great view of the mountains!).  Two very attentive groups with endless questions.  I look forward to returning in May – and speaking to the parent community

Tanbridge Academy

January 30, 2013

A unique experience today with the smallest groups I have ever spoken with at Tanbridge Academy.  Excellent attendance and questions.  The parents this evening were terrific!

“The fastest 2.5hrs I have ever experienced” – a father who attended and couldn’t believe we spent that much time together (the reason was due to the constant interaction with parents during the presentation).  And the best part?  Not one person left!

A special thanks to Connor.  A young man who decided to return with his parents to hear & learn even more –  and all in an effort to help his younger sister!!   That was a great way to end my day

Senator Patrick Burns PS

January 29, 2013

Another record setting crowd this evening for me.  Thanks to all the parents who braved the minus 20 degree temperature to attend!  Your community support was tremendous.  The students today were excellent – and with great questions, long after the presentations ended.  Thank you to the staff and parents for making this day a success.
