Hammarskjold Highlights November 2014

Principals Message Welcome to the first newsletter of the year from our community of Hammarskjold High School. This year is my first as Principal of Hammarskjold, and I am honoured to have been placed at our school in that capacity. For me, my appointment marks a return to Hammarskjold, where I had been an English teacher and the Chair of the Communications department ten years ago. During that time I have worked as a Vice Principal in all the other high schools in our Board, and I spent 4 years at the Board Office as the Education Officer. With me, on our administration team, is our Vice Principal, Ms. Donna Flasza, who is new to Hammarskjold. Last year she was at Superior C.V.I. as Vice Prin-cipal. My experiences in the past here at Hammarskjold and in the past few months, have con-firmed for me that we are one of the finest schools in the city and that we can be very proud of what we do for the young people of our school. We have managed to maintain our full time enrolment numbers equal to last year’s, and that is good news. All of our staff has been working very hard to welcome our new grade nine students, and others who are new to the city and/or our school, into our learning environment. We are work-ing together to instill a sense of pride and respect amongst all of our students, in an environment that encourages all students to reach for excellence both academically and socially. The school year began on September 2nd with all staff getting together to look at data from the last school year, and to make some plans for moving forward and preparing for the upcoming school year. The results for Hammarskjold in provincial testing, and overall student success in the school are very encouraging, and provide us with great indicators to move ahead. We have made im-provements to our graduation rate here at Hammarskjold, and we will continue to focus on working with all of our potential diploma students toward the goal of graduating high school with an Ontario Secondary School Diploma within five years of secondary school education. All of our fall sports are up and running, and Hammarskjold student-athletes have represented themselves and the school very well. Our student council has been very active convening a num-ber of activities over the past months, engaging many of our students in these fun events. Several clubs are also meeting regularly during and after school, involving a number of Hammarskjold stu-dents. Participating in school activities and events help to ensure high school is a rewarding and memorable experience, and we strongly encourage all students to come out and take part. Our first School Council meeting was held on Thursday September 18, 2014 with several parents in attendance. Parent council meetings will be held on Thursdays at 6:30 in the Library. Future meet-ing dates will be posted on the Hammarskjold website, available through our Board website at www.lakeheadschools.ca, or directly at the following website address: www.lakeheadschools.ca/hammarskjold/. The administrative team at Hammarskjold in partnership and cooperation with all of our staff, includ-ing, teachers, SSP’s, front office secretaries, custodians, cafeteria staff, and all other support staff look forward to working with the entire Hammarskjold school community to ensure a safe, success-ful and fulfilling year for the students of our school.

MENTORING PROGRAM

Hammarskjold’s Mentoring Program is up and running

again this year. Students are participating in student

led activities, hang out with friends, get help with

school work, improve leadership skills and have some

fun throughout the school year.

HAMMARSKJOLD HOSTS International Students Hammarskjold is once again proud to live up to its reputation as “the international school”. This year we welcome 3 students from abroad through the program called “International Student Exchange – Ontario” (ISE – Ontario). Hammarskjold students have welcomed European partners into their homes and lives for three months. In August, Heather Edmunds’ exchange part-

ner, Olivia Chabrowski, arrived from Vaud, Switzerland; Rylee Mose’s part-ner, Hortense De Lambert, arrived from Reenes, France; and Emma Him-melman’s partner, Suzanne Dupont, arrived from Gilly-les-Cateaux, France. Hammarskjold also welcomes Nina Bray and Jitte Wigbold, one-year ex-change students through Rotary.

After the natural stress of beginning school, everyone has now settled in to enjoy school and social activities, and develop friendships. We extend a warm Viking welcome to all these adventurous teenagers and hope they en-joy their time in Canada and, in particular, at Hammarskjold.

If you are a grade 10 student interested in an exchange program through ISE-Ontario, speak to Mrs. Grassia, or look for new program information in No-vember. Or contact ISE directly for more information.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENT EXCHANGE – ONTARIO, a registered not-for-profit corpora-tion, offers to Ontario students a variety of educational programs through the school year and

in the summer.

STUDENTS ACHIEVEMENT NIGHT

The academic excellence achieved by our students in 2013.2014 will be recognized on December 3, 2014.

Students will be honoured for earning the highest mark in each subject area, the highest average in each grade, and/or obtaining an overall average of 80% or higher.

In addition, students will be recognized for their outstanding community service and achievements in character clubs.

Hammarskjold Highlights

On Monday, October 20, 2014, Hammarskjold High School students from Ms. Huggins’ Grade 11 Busi-ness Technology Applica-tions class travelled to the

Da Vinci Centre for workshops on financial literacy to help celebrate BDC’s Small Business Week and the Summer Company Program. Highlights included local entrepreneur speakers, games and a compli-mentary buffet lunch. During lunch, ON Co-Op provided students with infor-mation on various business models including Cooper-atives. Students also participated in an exercise to test the viability of their innovative business ideas.

SCHOOL COUNCIL

School Councils play a vital role in the education system in Ontario. They provide a forum through which parents and other members of school communities can contribute to improving student achievement and school performance. School Council makes recommendations to their principals and school boards on any matter. Principals and school boards in turn, must consult with school councils on a variety of mat-ters that affect student learning. New parents are welcome to join school council.

Hammarskjold Highlights

JR VARSITY GIRLS

BASKETBALL The team is over half way through their season and

are clearly making their mark as a team to watch

out for going into the playoffs!!! The team is made

up of 12 girls in grades 9 and 10, some of whom

have never played basketball before. Hard work,

dedication and a true desire to succeed helped to

earn the tournament championship at the Westgate

Fall Classic. With the city finals just around the

corner, the team and coaches Lisa MacLeod and

Jodi Ziebarth, are all looking forward to competitive

matchups against strong local teams.

Good luck LADY VIKES!!!!

FIELD CHEERLEADING The Hammarskjold Field Cheerleading team

showed its Viking Pride with 36 members this

fall. They had a multitude of opportunities to

show their Viking Spirit on the field, cheering for

both the Junior and Senior Football teams. The

team thrived under the mentorship of communi-

ty coach, and Hammarskjold cheerleading

alumni, Reegan Bushby, who was supported by

two other cheerleading alumni Elina Ranta-

Diegel and Arleigh Shields. Team captain Sa-

rah Prenger led the girls through their repertoire

of cheers on the field with poise and enthusi-

asm.

Grade 9 students made up most of the team.

This demonstrates their courage and ambition

to participate in their school community, as try-

outs began in only the second week of their first

month of high school. We were delighted to

welcome a few senior students new to the team

(and even some new to Hammarskjold), as well

as several dedicated members returning for a

second, third and fourth year on the team.

There was a balance of enthusiasm, energy

and experience which contributed to a success-

ful Field Cheerleading season. We are so proud

of every team member.

Cheerleading opportunities will continue for

Hammarskjold students when the Competitive

season starts in mid-November.

Hammarskjold Highlights

S.A.C. News! Wow, has it ever been an extremely exciting and busy start to the school year for your Hammarskjold S.A.C.! We started early to plan some wicked cool events for our favourite Viking family. A week before school start-ed S.A.C put on a very successful BBQ for the incoming grade nines. This evening was jam packed with yummy food and to ease the high school nerves, we helped the-se eager new students find their classes. As soon as school officially began, we jumped right into Dagapaloo-za, a week-long event full of iconic events such as Fly On The Wall, Mystery Blend and Pie Throwing At Sen-iors! During this week, S.A.C. handed out tons of appli-cations in search of two new grade nine reps; a week later we were pleased to welcome Manny Khaper and Emma Hansen to the crew. Late September we held our first dance of the year with a school spirit theme and the Hammardome was to no surprise, full of red, gold and Viking pride! October promises to be a month of spooky and festive Halloween events! We are hard at work planning the annual Haunted House, Halloween Dance and new to this year, a movie buy-out to watch the classic film Halloween Town. Hammarskjold will once again be participating in the United Way High School Challenge in hopes of taking home the prize of a free dance! To help meet this goal, we will be bringing back the fiercely competitive Silver Wars and the crowd pleasing Jail N’ Bail! But wait there is more! Get ready Vikings because December is just around the corner and that means the much anticipated Christmas Assem-bly is almost here. In addition, new to this school year is Sub-Committee. Sub-Committee was created to allow everyone in the student body a chance to help out with student council’s events. If this sounds like the commit-tee for you, keep listening to your HNN News broadcast for meeting dates. You can also check us out on Insta-gram (hammarskjold_sac) and Twitter (@HammarskjoldSac) to stay in the loop on all the fun activites planned for this year. Let’s have a great year Vikings!

Most people have heard the term diabetes

but in some cases don’t know all the facts.

There are 2 main types of diabetes Type 1

which appears in children to young adults

caused by genetics and unknown factors,

requires insulin by injection and lasts a life-

time. Type 2 diabetes is caused by genetics

and lifestyle factors, is preventable and is

treated with lifestyle changes, and medica-

tions. 3 Million Canadians live with diabetes.

ful networking and compete in exciting hands on

challenges. Representatives from Service, Con-

Hammarskjold Highlights

HAMMARSKJOLD TECH

Fall 2014 has provided another great opportunity for

Hammarskjold students to explore a wide range of

technology classes. Whether these classes will pro-

vide a pathway into a skilled trade or just really en-

joyable hobbies remains to be seen, but as you will

note from these pictures, there is no shortage of

“hands-on” learning opportunities for students here at

Hammarskjold. As well as these learning experi-

ences that we enjoy in our technology labs, once

again this year there will be opportunities for our stu-

dents to compete locally and possibly in Waterloo,

ON in some of the Ontario Skills Competition events.

Check that competition out at http://

www.skillsontario.com/ and nudge the Viking in your

home to think about competing. The first competi-

tion, the Card Board Boat Building Challenge will be

happening at SWCVI Pool on November 19 and

Hammarskjold intends to be there with 2 teams.

The Hammarskjold Tech Department staff made up

of Ms. Nowgesic, Mr. Bodkin, Mr. Latt, Mr. Thomas,

Mr. Kamerman and Mr. Kok enjoy this privilege of

working with students in such engaging environ-

ments and we want to remind our students that

when effort and skills and opportunity meet, careers

begin to take shape!

SPECIALIST HIGH SKILLS MAJOR The Environment Program This semester, students enrolled in the Specialist High Skills Major – The Environment

participated in a number of activities toward their “Red Seal” on their Diploma. At the end

of this School year, 5 students have the possibility of earning the SHSM Designation on

their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD).

A Specialist High Skills Major is a ministry-approved specialized program that allows stu-

dents to focus their learning on a specific economic “SECTOR” while meeting the require-

ments for the OSSD. The SHSM – The Environment happens in a Students’ Grade 11

and 12 Year and combines in-class learning with outdoor experiential and an environ-

mental focused learning. Hammarskjöld’s SHSM Program helps foster relationships be-

tween the interested student of today and the active, ecologically literate citizen of tomor-

row.

During the Kingfisher Lake Outdoor Centre Fall Overnighter at the end of September,

students went hiking, learned compass and map proficiencies, were introduced to the

GPS, tied knots (a lost life skill), and built a sense of community during meal times and

the Bon Fire at Night! We were glad to have along 4 exchange students (Netherlands,

France, and Switzerland) as we gave them a taste of the Great Northwestern Ontario

outdoors! Hammarskjöld High School would like to thank the Teachers at the Kingfisher

Lake Outdoor Centre for their continued support of the SHSM – The Environment Pro-

gram and the fine, collaborative work they do.

Coming up in early November, Students in the Specialist Group, together with the Physi-

cal Geography and Environmental Science classes, will return for the fifth consecutive

year to Hill’s Greenhouse to prepare and bag tree seedlings that will be planted in North-

western Ontario this coming spring. The group will continue on to the Seed Orchard on

Arthur Street and will finish the Field Experience “Reach Ahead” activity at Belluz Farms

examining sustainable food production and healthier Food Systems in Northwestern On-

tario. Hammarskjöld would like to extend our thanks to Kevin VanDuyn, Jodi and Kevin

Belluz, and Megan Thompson for their expertise and Teaching on that Experiential

Learning Excursion.

On the winter Overnight “Reach Ahead” Experience in December, students from Mr.

Timko’s Canadian and World Issues geography class and the Grade 12 SHSM Students

will travel to Kingfisher Lake Outdoor Centre. There, they will focus on Environmental

Issues and Outdoor Experiential Education. Students will continue to develop their Knot

Tying skills, Map and Compass Skills, and their GPS proficiencies.

Also, in the upcoming months, the Environmental Specialist Students will be certified in

Standard First Aid, CPR, and AED, WHIMIS and will be trained in Chainsaw Safety. What

a day that will be!

When all the snow is finally gone and the weather improves, the SHSM Environmental

Major Students will be joining forces with ECO Superior, and will participate in our 12th

Annual Spring Up to Clean Up initiative in our surrounding neighborhood.

Hammarskjold Highlights

Make a difference in the lives of children and youth: Say ‘yes’ to participate in the 2014 Ontario Child Health Study and School Mental Health Surveys

The 1983 Ontario Child Health Study told us that 1 in 5 children and youth experienced serious mental health challeng-es. This estimate is outdated as is much of what we know about child and youth mental health in Ontario. The 2014 Ontario Child Health Study will tell us about the mental health status and needs of children and youth living in Ontario today. From October 2014 to May 2015, Statistics Canada will be inviting 7,000 families with children aged 4-17 years to com-plete an interview in their home. At the same time, McMaster researches will be conducting School Mental Health Sur-veys in 240 Ontario schools to help us learn new ways of promoting and addressing student mental health needs.

Together, these studies will be the first of their kind in Canada

to examine the influence of family, community and school environments on child and youth mental health.

The results will be used to develop programs and services to improve the mental health of young people in Ontario. Results from the 1983 Study were partially responsible for over 3 billion dollars of investment in federal and provincial programs and services, resulting in the creation of programmes such a the Ontario Early Years Centres. Participation in the 1983 Ontario Child Health Study was over 90%. Make sure your are heard in 2014 as well. Let’s make our province a better place for children and youth. If invited to participate, please say ‘yes’ to the 2014 Ontario Child Health Study and School Mental Health Surveys.

The purpose of the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT) is to ensure that students have acquired the essential reading and writing skills that apply to all subject areas in the provin-cial curriculum up to the end of Grade 9. All stu-dents in public and private schools who are working toward an Ontario Secondary School Diploma are required to write the OSSLT in Grade 10. Students who have been eligible to write the OSSLT at least twice and have been unsuccessful at least once are eligible to fulfill the requirement through the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Course (OSSLC). Principals have the discretion to allow students to enroll in the course before they have a second oppor-tunity to take the test, if the Principal determines that it is in the best educational interests of the student. (Ministry of Education Policy/Program Memorandum 127.) Successful completion of the OSSLT or OSSLC is a graduation require-ment.

OSSLT Test Date March 26, 2014

BREAKFAST PROGRAM Thanks to a group of student and staff volunteers, as well as the financial support of the Canadian Red Cross

and Breakfast Clubs of Canada, the Hammarskjold Breakfast Club is up and running this year. This program

has grown in popularity serving approximately 140-170 breakfasts daily. This service can be accessed each

morning from 9:00 am to 9:25 outside the Cafeteria, where students can help themselves daily to fresh fruit,

milk, toasted bagels and yogurt. We have also added to our menu a weekly treat of yogurt parfaits, oatmeal

and cheese.

more information on how to volunteer, or to make a donation, please contact Mrs. Marie Murphy, Breakfast

Club coordinator, at 767-1631 ext. 6374.

FALL HARVEST

Wisps of steam rising from the Ka-

ministiquia, highlighted by warm

morning sunshine, greeted Mrs.

McKay-LeGros' grade 10 Indigenous Studies class and

members of her grade 11 College English class as

they traveled to Fort William Historical Park to partici-

pate in the now annual Fall Harvest.

Seen in the photos are Lyric Doiron, Hira Masood, and

Hortense De Lambert (an exchange student from

France!) who are trying their hands at drying and roast-

ing wild rice with the guidance of a very helpful elder.

Also, members of both classes pose for a group photo

in the late morning sunshine. We're very glad that no

one decided to go for a swim off the dock!

The Fall Harvest is about sharing, learning, and partici-

pating in traditional Anishinabe activities such as bird &

fish preparation, tea preparation & medicines, wild rice

preparation, traditional foods, hide preparation, bead-

ing and leather work, storytelling, drum teachings, and

many more. These activities tie in well with several

elements of the curriculum for these courses and pro-

vide students with a very unique opportunity to experi-

ence many traditional aspects of the Ojibway culture.

Join us next year on our Fall Harvest Adventure!

BIKING VIKINGS - It’s all about the Mud! In anticipation of the upcoming 2015 competitive cross-country mountain bike sea-son, a dedicated and enthusi-astic band of Hammarskjold cyclists have already started conditioning by coming out for four fun rides. The trails at Centennial Park and Shuniah Mines again challenged the riders in navigating hills, mud, rocks and roots. After a 2013/2014 season that includ-ed the junior boys winning the SSSAA championship and many individual vic-tories, we’re looking forward to another successful season of racing next spring!
