• Today is Tuesday September 3 and it s Day 1 in our schedule.  Our Character Theme for September is “Respect” and here is something to think about.  “Every human being, of whatever origin, of whatever station, deserves respect.  We must each respect others even as we respect ourselves” – U. Thant

• And now an announcement from Ms. Bambrick
  • Welcome back to a new school year!  It is so nice to see our students today and we are looking forward to a great year here at Gledhill.  My name is Ms. Bambrick and I am the new Vice-Principal at Gledhill.  A special welcome to new students who are starting at Gledhill today and a particular welcome to our new Junior Kindergartens who are starting their first day of school.
  • As students go through their day today they will review the Gledhill school rules with their teacher.  It is particularly important that students remember these rules in the classroom, in the hallways and in the schoolyard.  Courtesy, Common Sense and Respect help us all to enjoy school and to be safe.
