The Journey Continues

This is a challenging post to write on our blog for a lot of reasons, and a very exciting one all at the same time!

I have accepted a position with Ever Active Schools. Ever Active Schools (EAS) facilitates the development of health and wellness in youth by promoting healthy and active schools - and I couldn't be more excited about this opportunity. My new position with EAS is as the Healthy Schools Communities Education Coordinator where I'll have an opportunity to work with many Alberta schools and health promoting organizations.

My last day at PHS will be this coming Wednesday. From there I'm heading to EAS's annual Shaping the Future Conference (where we'll be sharing our Don't Walk in the Hallway project!) and officially be joining the EAS team on Feb 2.

I feel very fortunate for all the time that I have spent at Panorama Hills School. The students, staff and community have always been very supportive and I am going to truly miss the relationships we've developed together over the years.

All my years at PHS have been very formative as an educator and even more so in the recent past as a Physical Education Specialist. I can honestly say this this has been one of my best years teaching at PHS and I owe that to my very supportive family, extremely talented teaching partner, Ms. Atwal, and all our students and staff. They listened to all my crazy ideas and were very supportive of many initiatives.

All the best for the rest of the school year and thank you for all your support over the years!

Sincerely,

Chris Fenlon-MacDonald
