Mission Statement
Our mission is to foster academic excellence, social
responsibility and physical well-being by establishing
high standards of learning that we expect all students
to strive towards.
We promote our mission by modeling the joy of learning,
by working together in unity, and by respecting
ourselves, each other and the environment.
Chantrell Creek is a Great school! What makes it great?
Committed teachers, hard-working students and supportive
parents!
1. Teachers: Every one of our teachers are
committed to children! We are committed to High academic
standards. All staff are committed to professional
growth: attend conferences, workshops, school based
professional development, professional readings,
collegial networking, cooperative planning, and action
research.
Every teacher is committed to bringing out the best in
every child: careful assessment of each child,
instruction geared to meet the child’s needs, one on one
conferences with every child, clear communication with
families, before and after school assistance as needed,
Learning Support Team and counseling available for those
who need extra help.
Our music programme is outstanding! Our students
continually place very high in the annual district
choral festival. All students K-6 participate in core
music with Ms. Davies. All grade 7 students receive
instruction in the band programme with Mr. Lord.
Bottom line, we are all here because we are committed to
providing the very best educational experience for your
child!
2. Students: Chantrell Creek students are full of
enthusiasm for learning! They come to school well cared
for and ready to learn. They are intelligent, polite and
respectful.
Every child is an active member of A Community of
Caring: Chantrell Creek goes the extra mile to ensure
that every child feels safe and valued. Our students
demonstrate respect for self, respect for others and
respect for our school and the environment in everything
they do. Older students look out for younger students on
the playground, staff and students look for students who
are left out and invite them to join in, and every class
is involved in “buddy activities.” Students pride
themselves on having litter free grounds, students wear
inside shoes to keep our floors clean, leadership is
developed among all students.
Student Leadership Team plans and implements several
spirit activities throughout the year such as pajama day
and crazy hair day. They also spearhead service projects
such as collecting used eyeglasses for people in third
world countries and a fundraiser to support a five year
old cancer survivor who was raising funds for the Cancer
Society.
Our Sports Teams excel! Parents, teachers and students
work together to create exciting athletic opportunities
for students. We are proud of our students, the
outstanding sportsmanship they display whether winning
or losing, and the excellent athletic skills they
demonstrate in cross country, volleyball, basketball,
track and field, and this year, we are fortunate to be
able to add soccer.
This kind of enthusiasm creates a wonderful learning
environment for the teachers to work in.
Parents: Parents and teachers work together as partners
for the benefit of the children. We honour parents as a
child’s first and most important teachers. Teachers
value information and feedback regarding each student
they work with. We work together to resolve issues for
the good of the children.
Parents in the School Planning Council work alongside
staff to plan, support and offer feedback on the school
growth plan.
Our PAC works hard to support the school: taking an
active interest in academic issues, seeking to
understand how better to fulfill their role in
supporting learning in the home, engaging in informed
dialogue through monthly book study meetings with staff,
raising funds to support important school projects, such
as the Primary Guided Reading programme, technology, and
playground. Monthly PAC meetings provide a vehicle for
staff and parents to communicate and plan important
activities and policies.
Staff, students, parents. We continually work together
to ensure that Chantrell is a great school!
