Principal's Message

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Erin Public School community for the warm welcome and the support over the past month. Mr. Zuk has left a well organized and smooth running school for which I am grateful. With the help of Mr. Singh and all of the staff we will continue to promote growth for all of our students and continue to ensure that the learning environment is safe, welcoming and productive. Please continue to work with your children as you reflect on the report cards that came home in February. Take this opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments and to provide support in the areas of growth.
I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible in the coming weeks. Feel free to drop by and say hello!

February 2012 News

A PlusSix years plus…
It’s hard to believe that I have been principal here at Erin PS for over six and half years! On Wednesday, February 1st, 2012, I will be principal at Parkinson Centennial Public School in Orangeville.
Our motto has been, “Students, Parents, and Staff with Purpose.” Our educational stakeholders ( students, parents, staff) act with purpose and direction to contribute to a productive, but caring and empathetic school climate. Over the course of the last few years our status as an Eco-School, Collaborative Problem Solving School, and Anti-Bully climate has impacted on the expectations and wellness of all stakeholders. Our concern for all students and especially those families who are living with special needs is apparent in our breakfast program, extra-curricular initiatives, information evenings, parent literacy and numeracy evenings, extended trips, student recognition awards, and character education assemblies.
