St. Pat's Intermediate September 12 to 16

Opening Week

We had a great opening week at St. Patrick’s Intermediate.  Our first Boot Camp session gave us an opportunity to speak to students about being kind to each other and steps to take if bullied or if a witness to bullying.  We have a strong tradition at St. Patrick’s of demonstrating care and concern for each other.  This doesn’t happen by accident - we need to continually review our approaches and make sure we are all content both in and outside the classroom.  


Meet the Staff Night

On Thursday we had a great turnout for our annual Meet the Staff Night. Despite the incredible heat that evening, parents/guardians were able to walk from building to building in order to connect with our staff. Feedback from this night was extremely positive and it is something that we will continue annually.

Monday Morning Assembly

For our grade 7 students, our weekly Monday Morning Assembly will be a new experience in organization and in building spirit.  We gather Monday mornings as a full community to listen to pray and reflect, and to review the weekly agenda.  Another part of our assemblies include student presentations that shine light on learning skills, gospel values and our Catholic Graduate Expectations.
