Celebration Day 2018

6/20/2018

Erin Taylor, Communications Officer

We wrapped up the school year on Friday, June 15 last week with a great Celebration Day. We returned to our regular facilities, the John Bassett Theatre at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, which is spacious enough for our quickly growing community.

Students, parents and staff closed off the 2018-2019 school year by looking back on its highlights. We enjoyed musical performances by the choir and stage band, and an excellent speech by Grade 12 student Olivia Morgan who gave this year’s My Greenwood Story address. A number of awards were given to students, recognizing achievements across the four pillars of character. Perhaps the most coveted award of all, the House Cup, was awarded to Latimer! It was a great year for school spirit and all the houses earned significantly more points than in past years. For a full list of award winners, click here.

Another special moment? The Head Boy and Head Girl, Liam Wilson and Olivia Kalles, surprised Principal Allan Hardy with a retirement gift — a print of our south stairwell artwork, signed by every Greenwood student.

We thank everyone who came out to celebrate with us. We were thrilled to see so many parents, grandparents and other family members join us. Stay tuned for a link to the full set of photos and have a wonderful summer!

We acknowledge with gratitude the Ancestral lands upon which our main campus is situated. These lands are the Ancestral territories of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Anishinabek and the Wendake. The shared responsibility of this land is honoured in the Dish with One Spoon Treaty and as settlers, we strive to care for the land, the waters, and all creatures in the spirit of peace. We are responsible for respecting and supporting the enduring presence of all First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples. When away from this campus we vow to be respectful to the land by protecting and honouring it. We will create relationships with the people and the land we may visit by understanding the territories we enter and the nations who inhabit them.
