Engagement

Our focus for February and March is Engagement:

As learners we demonstrate engagement when:

• we are curious, and wonder ‘why’
• we are interested, excited, enthusiastic
• we listen, think, question, and respond
• we create, plan, solve problems, evaluate
• we perform, explore, explain

Introduction

Hello Northern Lights community

My name is Jennifer Burt and I'm thrilled to be starting as the new principal today. I look forward to working together with families to create an engaging, enriching and healthy environment for your children where they can thrive, learn academics and how to be successful citizens.

Look forward to meeting you soon.
