The month of April was very exciting! It began with the announcement
that St. Teresa will have a new principal, Mrs. Lesia Huk, and a new
Assistant Principal, Ms. Maria-Julieta Zelda. We welcome them to our
wonderful community as Mrs. Leboldus-Campbell moves to Sister Annata
Brockman and Ms. Hertlein moves to St. Alphonsus School. Both Father
Roger and Father Andrew celebrated with us in our Kindergarten-led
Easter Celebration. Students, along with many parents and grandparents,
met to sing Alleluia and start their journey through the 50 days of
Easter. That evening our community came together to dance the night
away. A wonderful turnout shared in the excitement of dancing, face
painting, and Silent Auction items. While the dance pays for itself
through ticket sales, $889 was raised for our “Dig that Well” project.
Thank you Mrs. Rourke and team for pulling together such a wonderful
event and to all of the families that joined in the fun. We also had a
very successful Open House on April 11 with many new families looking to
join our community. Some Grade Five and Grade Six students shared their
musical talents to start off this evening. Our registrations for next
year are looking very strong.
This May we want to wish all of our mothers a wonderful “Mother’s Day.”
What a wonderful opportunity to stop and say thank you to the moms that
make our lives so special! May is also the beginning of our Grade 3
and Grade 6 Provincial Achievement Tests. Please check the
newsletter for the dates. Finally, on Wednesday, May 9th at 7PM,
our School Council will hold its Annual General Meeting. We are so
fortunate to have a dedicated and hard-working parent community to
support the education of our children. Please take time to join us for
our final meeting of the year and talk with those who have done so much
to support the St. Teresa community. This will be a shorter meeting with
a Social to follow.
Wishing you a refreshing May, a time to get back into the soccer and
baseball fields, a time to reconnect with neighbors and friends, and a
time to reconnect with nature!
