Page 12 - SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 - MaRTEnSvillE MESSEngER Welcome Back Assembly at VMS There was a buzz of excitement last Thursday morning as Valley Manor School opened its doors to 799 students and 74 staff members! Students were eager to see their classrooms, their teachers and their friends and tell them all about their summer vacations. We were able to pack the gym for our welcome back assembly, where new students, teachers and interns were welcomed. New to VMS this year is; Amanda Stratton – Kindergarten, Lisa Robinson-Gr. 4, Katie Curtis-Gr. 7. Interns: Maxine Panchuk in Gr. 1AB, Serena Reimer in Gr. 2I, Tavia Freedman in Gr. 6G, Jessie Hoffart in Gr. 6CK, Raelyn Fee in Gr. 1K and Mackenzie Schultz in Gr. 1AJ. We welcome back: Meg Weippert-Kindergarten, Ali Miller-Gr. 2, Danielle Briske-Gr. 3, and Amy Wiebe-Gr. 6. It doesn’t take long to get things started at VMS; students are eagerly signing up for cross-country, volleyball, soccer, friends of the library, and school patrol. Our cross-country team has already started training, our volleyball teams have played their first games and friends of the library have begun their training. School patrol and soccer are quickly being organized along with our Meet the Teacher Morning and Terry Fox Run. The grade 4’s have already had their Identity Day and we expect many more to follow. There is a great feeling in the halls and it looks like we are off to a great year! Welcome Back Assembly at VHS Well Venture Heights is back at it for another school year. Students and teachers were excited to see each other and get started. We had our first assembly to welcome everyone back to school and to announce some new things. Mr. Biberdorf (principal) announced to the students that we have some new interns/staff members, then invited them to introduce themselves. We welcome them to Venture Heights. Mrs. Lacoursiere (vice principal) and Mr. Robson (IA teacher) announced that we have new lights in our gym. They do many things such as change colors and flash to music. Mr. Robson showed the staff and students a small demonstration of what they can do. Everyone was pumped! VHS is excited to announce that our school will once again be participating with “One Book, One School, One Community”. This year, families will be given the opportunity to choose from 6 different books, all with a “Knight” theme. These books will be available at the upcoming VHS Pancake Breakfast (September 15th).

Remember the good times, laughter, and fun. Share the happy memories we've made. Do not let them wither or fade. I'll be the voice that whispers in the breeze. I'm peaceful now, put your mind at ease. I've rested my eyes and gone to sleep, But memories we've shared are yours to keep. Sometimes our final days may be a test, But remember me when I was at my best. Although things may not be the same, Don't be afraid to use my name. Missing you everyday Jenna.
