Music Monday - May 6th, 2013

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Musical spirit spread throughout Davisville P.S. (and Spectrum A.S.) as all the staff and students stood in two circles singing and signing “Is Somebody Singing?”. This special event was organized by Mme. McCool, Ms. Kang, and Crystal Wilman. Together, they taught the song in three different languages - English, French, and American Sign Language. Mr. K. set up the sound system outdoors. Last but not least, a special thanks goes out to Susan Bakshi for her photography from the roof, and to Tanya Murdoch who captured the event on video. Some footage of our afternoon was broadcasted on City T.V. News that evening. What an accomplishment!.

Skate Night - February 22, 2013

Over 200 people attended the Annual Skate Night at Hodgson Senior Public School. Students and their families, as well as some staff members came together and skated the night away under the light snow flurries. The arena staff commented that it was the busiest night they had seen all season! For some students, it was their first night skating ever thanks to the plentiful donations of skates and helmets that poured into the school office earlier on in the week.  A big thank you goes out to the parent volunteers who organized Skate Night, including those who contributed and sold baked goods, and supervised the students. See photo gallery here.
