HoS Highlights: Cheers to an Amazing First Week of School! 🎉
Welcome back to a new school year of learning, growth, and excitement! The first week has flown by, filled with laughter, new friendships, and the joy of reuniting with familiar faces. Of course, your children also had a lot of smiles for the Learning Designers who will be guiding their teaching and learning this year. It has been a great first week at VERSO watching our Learning Designers purposefully connecting with your children to ensure they are ready for a great year!
- Lower Loop and Middle Loop: between 2:45pm - 3:15pm.
- Middle Loop learners are allowed to be in pH7, as long as they are accompanied by a guardian. They must leave pH7 and the campus by 4:00pm.
- Upper Loop learners must be picked up by 4:30pm.
I'm pleased to announce two notable additions to our Leadership Team.
Suzanne Kitto, formerly the Upper Loop Cohort Leader, has stepped into the role of Director of Learning and Curriculum. The possibilities that this new position brings to VERSO are incredibly exciting, and we look forward to witnessing the positive impact it will have.
Garrett Cutler will be transitioning from his previous role as the Lower and Middle Loop Well Being Learning Designer to take on the position of Athletics Director. While still maintaining some teaching responsibilities, Garrett will also be spearheading the organization of sports and after-school activities and will be sharing details soon.
This exciting shift marks the beginning of a new chapter for these opportunities available to our learners, and we can't wait to see the wonderful experiences that lie ahead.
Next week, our Loop Leaders will be sharing updates with you and I would like to remind you that our coffee mornings start on 23 August, with the first featuring our new Athletics Director, Garrett, who will soon be sharing more information about the sports and after-school activities programs this year.
Enjoy your long weekend holiday and Happy Thai Mother's Day!
Best regards,
Ryan Persaud
Head of School
