Thank you to everyone who attended the PD Event that took place at the BMO Centre yesterday afternoon.
Approximately 90 members participated in one of three sessions offered by the Local. This was also the first PD event where our members registered exclusively via the ETFO - Thames Valley Occasional Teachers' website. Thank you for making the effort to familiarize yourself with the website and using it so efficiently.
At this point, we feel we must address a few challenges encountered at the BMO Centre yesterday that we have not encountered in the past: there were a couple of dinner items inadvertently missing from our menu selection and the room and field situations in the Nutrition - Power to Explore (Junior level) and the Phys. Ed. Beyond Dodgeball challenges will be addressed by your Local with the representatives from BMO with a view to preventing such unfortunate difficulties in the future.
We would like to thank all those who participated and kept a positive outlook.
Thank you also to Vivek Nath, our PD Chair who stepped in while Terry Card is in Toronto on Union Business.
On another note, participants did enjoy a delicious meal after work and those participating in the Nutrition workshops were thrilled with the Resource Materials received.
Stay tuned for our next PD event taking place on March 27th, at the Best Western Lamplighter Inn. Registration for this PD event will be available on our website shortly.
