I would like to thank our parents, guardians, family and friends for your continued support in the McMurrich community over the years and for your support in overseeing your child’s education and well-being.  

Each year, I am honoured to work with the students in our McMurrich community.  With each cohort of learners, comes a collection of strengths, talents, charisma and passion.  They also come with challenges; that we all work together to overcome and to allow us to move forward as learners and contributing members in our class community.  These should never be obstacles but an opportunity to strive and persevere.

This year, I have been fortunate to work with a dynamic group of Grade 5 & 6 students who are driven by learning and making a difference not only in their community but in the lives of others locally and globally.  

Thank you for the great pleasure of teaching and learning with you.  I hope all your future endeavours are meet with excitement and that you continual looking for opportunities to strengthen your talents and build upon your knowledge.

Your gifts, tokens of appreciations, written messages of thanks & reflection are reminders to me of how much of what I do is making a difference in the lives of children and student leaders.  THANK you again for all that you do to support your children and my students.

Thank you all, students and parents for another wonderful year of learning at McMurrich!!!

It is hard to believe that only 10 months ago we embarked on this journey in the Grade 5/6 group in Room 301.  We have all built upon many of our strengths and overcome many obstacles.  Thank you for inspiring me and each other to move forward in our learning community and to continue to make a difference by starting with ourselves.

Enjoy your summer time with family and friends, at home or away.  May you face new challenges head-on and continue to build upon your voice, because each of you has something of value to share with others. Perseverance and selflessness are two words that come to mind when I think of our class community.


Good luck on your Grade 6 or 7 journey! I look forward to whatever the next school year brings  :o)
