WEEKLY UPDATE 

June 10 - 14, 2024

School Update: 

Dear Cambrian Heights School Community,

 I hope this message finds you well as we embrace the excitement of a new chapter together. As your newly appointed Principal, I am truly honored to have been welcomed with such warmth and enthusiasm by students, staff, and parents during my first week here.

 It has been a joy getting to know our incredible students, exploring their diverse talents and interests, and witnessing their enthusiasm for learning firsthand. From visiting classrooms, spending time outside at lunch recess with students, to connecting with community members, each interaction has reinforced my belief in the strength and vibrancy of our learning community.

 You may have noticed me out front of the school every morning during supervision, and I want to extend an open invitation for anyone to come by and say hello. Building these personal connections is important to me, and I am eager to engage with each and every one of you.

 In the past week, I've had the pleasure of attending various school events, including sharing assemblies for both our Grade 5/6 students and our Kindergarten class. These experiences have allowed me to witness our students' pride in sharing their engaging learning experiences, and I am thoroughly impressed by the passion and dedication exhibited by our young learners and their teachers.

 Additionally, I had the privilege of attending the Grade 6 graduation ceremony and Kindergarten orientation night. These milestones underscore the incredible journey our students embark upon at Cambrian Heights School, and I am honored to play a part in guiding and supporting them along the way.

 As we continue this journey together, I am committed to keeping you informed and engaged every step of the way. To that end, I will be sending out weekly updates to share important school information, key dates to remember, and updates from our Cambrian Heights Parent Association.

 Please remember that my door is always open, and I encourage you to reach out at any time if you have questions, concerns, or simply want to connect. Your feedback and input are invaluable as we work together to ensure the success and well-being of every member of our school community.

 Thank you once again for your warm welcome and unwavering support. Together, I am confident that we will continue to cultivate a learning environment where every student can thrive and succeed.

With warm regards,

Todd Webber

Principal, Cambrian Heights School
