Dear Parents & Guardians,

I am pleased to be here at Brian P.S. to be acting as temporary Principal while

Mr. Freckelton is absent.  I am a retired principal who has worked for T.D.S.B. for over 30 years.  My focus has been Early Childhood (Kindergarten), Special Education and a strong interest in French.  It is a pleasure so far getting to know your children and the hard working staff at Brian P.S.

Sincerely,

Lenna Kozovski (Mrs. K)

ROOTS OF EMPATHY

We are excited that Ms. Yang’s grade 5 class will be participating in the Roots of Empathy Program this year. This program teaches children about feelings, their own feelings and the feelings of others.  Once every three weeks a baby, and his/her parent will visit the classroom. A trained roots of Empathy Instructor will lead discussions while they watch the baby grow. Evidence has shown great success with this program.

SCIENCE CENTRE   ( from our students)

When we asked “ What did you learn at the Science Center?”

“ We organized fruits and vegetables. We also went into a room that was like the rainforest.  It had nature in it. I have a hobby for nature.” - by Ajourel gr.1

“My favourite part was everything! We saw a human skeleton that you can put together like a puzzle.  We also got to play video games that taught us stuff.” - by Heeyeon (Jubilee) gr. 1(FI)

COLD WEATHER IS HERE!!

Parents please ensure that your child is dressed for the cold weather. Students need to remember to bring and wear hats, gloves (mittens) snow pants and boots during the next few months!
