| A "Pond Farewell" to Mr. Chater | http://goo.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/233 | A "Pond Farewell" to Mr. Chater | <p>The SCDSB recently announced that our very own Mr. Chater has been promoted to the principal role and has been transferred to Orchard Park in Orillia. We will miss his humour, wit and love for our students dearly. Mrs. Wright who has been a member of our office staff the past two years will join Mr. Chater in Orillia. Both will make a great team and will bring a little Goodfellow up highway 11!</p><p>Please join me in welcoming Ms. Bennett as our new VP. Ms. Bennett brings a wealth of experience with the Toronto District School Board. We are happy that she joins our school community.<br></p><p> Mr. Chater would like to share the following:<br></p><p>A Pond Farewell, </p><p>It is with a heavy heart that I am sharing news of my move to become Principal at Orchard Park Public School in Orillia. I wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for how welcoming and accepting the Goodfellow community was with my arrival last September. It has been a pleasure getting to see all the personal growth and learning that has taken place with our students this year. I wish I had the opportunity to say good-bye face to face but sometimes the moves in this profession are swift and immediate. Please let all members of the Goodfellow school community know that they will be missed and remembered fondly. Enjoy your summer break and I wish everyone in our Gator family all the best, and until next time. </p><p>The gator in a vest, </p><p>Mr. Chater</p><p> </p><p><br></p> | | | |
