Welcome to the Burkevale Elementary School website. This site will provide all the information you will need to get to know the “home of the bulldogs” better. The interactive nature of this site allows Burkevale families the opportunity to more effectively participate in the education of their children. The website is updated regularly to keep the Burkevale community informed of current and upcoming events.
Burkevale Protestant Separate School is a unique and dynamic learning environment, with a historic involvement in the Town of Penetanguishene, on the shore of Georgian Bay, in Ontario Canada, that dates back to the 19th century. Its continued relevance is due to a successful partnership between a variety of stakeholders who work together in the best interest of the children.
The Burkevale staff is hard-working, caring and creative. The parents and guardians are actively involved as volunteers within the school, and on the School Council, which organizes a variety of events and fundraisers which enhance the school climate and provide funds for different educational activities and outings. The School Board provides significant support to the staff and students at Burkevale, and individuals and organizations within the local community help enrich our school environment.
I am honoured to be the new principal of Burkevale Protestant Separate School as we begin the 2008 – 2009 school year. The staff and I encourage you to visit our school to offer volunteer services and to attend planned activities and events. We look forward to your involvement in the learning process. Together, we can make a difference!
Sincerely,
Tim Mallon, Principal |
