Day #1 ... So much fun!
We've Got Spirit!
Day #1 ... So much fun!
Such amazing spirit among our kids ... Today, I witnessed true camaraderie at the opening assemblies, orientation tours through the school, bonding with friends and faculty, and at the BBQ for the high school girls and boys.
Our students are incredibly impressive in the respect and love they show for one another, and the joyful way they reach out to new students - especially our 20 ESL students who come to us from other countries! Tomorrow, immediately after school, we will enjoy an ice-cream social.

Canadian National Sprint Canoe Kayak Championships!
After a busy summer
preparing for the Canadian National Sprint Canoe Kayak Championships, Kaitlin
Bird, Gr. 12 Sacred Heart student, with her Senobe teams, won the Gold medal
for the Midget level war canoe, Gold medal for the Women’s War canoe and the
Bronze medal for the Juvenile War Canoe. With 42 clubs and over 1000 paddlers
participating at the Montreal site from across Canada, the Senobe girls from
Dartmouth also earned the overall highest Burgee points for the Midget Girls
category! Kaitlin’s two K-4 boats also went to finals with a sixth and nine
place finish overall. Congratulations to Kaitlin and all her team mates!
Also, following her
recent and wonderful school trip to Kenya, Kaitlin and her friend Emma
Churchill, Gr. 12, raised over $140 dollars for FREE THE CHILDREN by asking for
donations in lieu of birthday gifts at their summer Luau birthday party. Well
done girls!

We’ve got Spirit.
Dear Sacred Heart Community -
Last June, I had a good conversation with students Luc LeFrancois, Layla Haddad, and our 2013-14 Presidents & VPs (Taryn Mason and Sam Wile, Ted Bursey and Katie MacLellan). The topic of our discussion: a school-wide theme for this Academic Year. In essence our students focused on unity and spirit, and in the end they said “Spirit” should be the theme. Together, we will build school spirit, understand and live the spirit of our Goals and Criteria, contribute positive spirit to others on behalf of our community, show gratitude for God’s spirit among us, foster a spirit of goodness, and promote participation in school events.
Bearing our theme in mind, I went for my annual eight-day silent retreat to Bras d’Or Lakes in Cape Breton. This gift of time in such a beautiful place was a spiritual holiday to reflect on my first year in Halifax which was an engaging and deep dive into this new chapter of our School’s history.
In preparation for my second year, I want to welcome you home to the Heart, and hope you will attend the Headmistress’ Address and Reception on September 12, 2013. At 7pm, the event will begin with an informative program in the main gym, after which we will relax to the Parlours, Courtyard, and
Crossroads to socialize and toast to the year.
We’ve got Spirit ... I trust you will wholeheartedly celebrate the qualities that make Sacred Heart School of Halifax a meaningful investment for your family!
In a spirit of gratitude,
Sr. Anne Wachter, RSCJ
