St. Anne Catholic School Welcomes New Angels

The first day of school is often a day that has students filled with excitement as they begin a new chapter in their lives. On September 4, 2012, St. Anne Catholic School in Hanmer welcomed its new students with brightly decorated halls, welcome messages on bulletin boards, prize displays for the upcoming fundraiser, and Catholic Virtue words that encourage all students to be leaders.

Three students from the Full Day Kindergarten program shared their excitement as they had time to interact with others and begin their inquiry-based learning. All of them were happy to share their feelings about the day. “I liked making new friends,” said Kaitlin Lacroix. “I liked going outside,” said Payton MacDonald. Caedene Troscinski, a student who is new to St. Anne Catholic School said, “I like meeting new friends because I’m new here.”

St. Anne Catholic School is a growing Catholic school community that strives to incorporate technology into student learning with MacBooks, iPads, and access to a school-wide wireless network.
