In June, we gathered for our annual Board Recognition Night, honouring our 15- and 25-year service pin recipients and celebrating the incredible employees who retired from our Board!
Our theme The Night Garden, celebrated growth, transformation, community, and the lasting impact our staff have made throughout their careers.
Student creativity was woven beautifully into the celebration. Grade 2 students from St. Margaret School, guided by Tina Glymitsas, Rose Aegard and Lisa Sawchuk, created the floral centrepieces that inspired the evening’s theme. At St. Pius X School, Krystine Janiec and Tracey Towle’s Grade 2/3 students created hand-dyed corsages and boutonnieres for our retirees to wear and keep as special mementos.
We also recognized the leadership and support of our Senior Team and Board of Trustees, whose dedication and commitment continue to strengthen Catholic Education and our school communities. We were grateful to have Bishop Alan Campeau and Father Ciarán join us in prayer and reflection throughout the evening.
A cherished tradition continued with locally made gifts from Brad Hominick of the Pottery Cellar, who created beautiful handmade pottery for our retirees and 25-year service recipients.
Board Recognition Night is about more than years of service. It is a celebration of the care, relationships, dedication and countless contributions that have shaped our schools and touched the lives of students, families and colleagues.
