It looks like it is officially Fall out there with the leaves
falling from our big maple tree. It has been a wonderful
October with beautiful weather. With the season chang-
ing, please ensure your child is dressed for the weather.
This year at Trout Creek School we will continue to focus
on improving the well-being of our students as part of
our school inquiry goal. Much of our work in the past
has focused on the social emotional aspect of well-being.
This year, we will also focus on the cognitive and
physical aspects of well-being . This will include hav-
ing students engage in regular self-reflection and self-
assessment of their growth and development as a person
and as a learner. Outdoor learning is just one way our
staff is working to meet the physical well-being needs
of our students. Many of our classes are taking ad-
vantage of outdoor learning opportunities both at our
school and further afield at Powell Beach. We are so for-
tunate to have a school situated so close to nature!
Thank you for your continued support within this area.

GRADE 5 LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
On Thursday, October 18th, our Grade 5’s attended
the Authentically You: Creating a Community
and Culture of Care and Kindness. Students
participated in three sessions – Be Kind, Just
Because, Live in Wonder, and Leading From the
Inside Out. It was a very busy day, but feedback
from students was positive and all walked away
with some learning from the day. We would like
to thank Ms. Aoki and Mrs. Richardson for their
organization of this event. As well, Leadership
students from Summerland Secondary, Princess
Margaret and Pen High played a key role in help-
ing make the day a positive experience for the
students.
