  • School Council Newsletter
    School Council Newsletter March 13, 2015 WHAT'S NEW... March Break is here! There is something so appealing about March Break! It marks the end of a long winter and start of spring. It is an important break in the cycle of school, lesson planning, homework, lunch making, meetings and all those things that are important part of our regular pattern of life. Many people use March Break as family time - whether you travel or plan a "staycation", I hope you enjoy the week away from the regular routine and come back recharged. Relaxation is "Celestial" Here is a great story about student success! Sir Robert Borden student Abdou Sarr has developed a relaxation app to help fellow students relax and sleep better. Sarr recorded the sounds and developed the app called "Celestial". He first submitted it to the App Store on February 23 and it went on sale Sunday - it is currently at number 38. Read about it in the Ottawa Citizen or listen to his interview on CBC Radio. Listen here and click on Ottawa Teen's Relaxation App Understanding the Teenage Brain - Hillcrest High School - March 24th - 6:30 - 9:00 p.m. Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) in partnership with Hillcrest High School Council and the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, will be presenting a free public session for parents, caregivers, service providers and educators at Hillcrest High School on Tuesday March 24th from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. CHEO psychologists will present a variety of relevant topics ranging from concussions, to anxiety, to understanding the development of the teenage brain.

    2553 Severn Avenue Ottawa, ON K2B 7V8 Severn Avenue Phone: 613-829-8082 Fax: 613-596-6063 Public School Absence Line: 613-829-0486 Superintendent: Frank Wiley Tuesday, June 27, 2017 Trustee: Theresa Kavanagh Dear Partners in Education, This newsletter is by far the hardest I have had to write as it marks the last time that all current students from grades 1-6 as well as some of our students in JK & SK are all together before moving on to their new schools. Students moving to Pinecrest and D. Roy Kennedy will see familiar faces as staff from Severn are also moving to these two schools to aid in the transition process. I have always admired the resiliency and maturity of our students. They demonstrate these skills to us each and every day when we discuss the move to their new school. I want to thank you and our teachers for inculcating these skills in your children. Visitors who come to our school always comment how Severn students are independent, friendly, polite, and welcoming. This is why I am confident our students will be successful regardless of the school they attend next year! We would like to wish all the best to Ms. Bell, Mrs. Mainville, Ms. Mayo, Mrs. Barry, and Ms. Ginn who will be teaching at Pinecrest Public School next year and Mrs. Melanson who will be teaching at D. Roy Kennedy. We are also sad to lose Mr. MacDonald and Mrs. Shaw who have been here on long-term temporary assignments. Congratulations to Ms. Campbell who has been appointed acting vice-principal at Featherston Drive Public School.

Take a minute to look at this short video clip of Stuart Shanker speaking about self-regulation.
