PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
The months of April and May promise to be very busy
months in both the liturgical lives of our students as well
as the many wonderful activities planned in our school
community. We would like to offer our prayers and
warmest wishes to our Grade 2 students as they prepare
for the Sacrament of First Communion. As well, we
celebrate the Easter Season as a faith community. Easter
weekend Mass times for St. Patrick Parish are listed on
the next page. Easter Blessings to all!
As we look ahead to many wonderful spring initiatives,
we are inspired by the wonderful sense of community
here at Ascension Catholic School. We will be
recognizing our awesome parent volunteers during
National Volunteer Week. A Volunteer Appreciation
Tea has been planned for May 6 during Catholic
Education Week to celebrate all they do for Ascension
Catholic School. We also look forward to a very special
occasion for our school community – our 50th
Anniversary! We will be celebrating on May 14 with
more information to be shared in the weeks to come. We
thank our entire school community for their continued
support for our staff, students and initiatives. Working
together makes all the difference.
HAPPY EASTER
For God so loved the world,
that He gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in Him,
should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
- Wishing you a Blessed Easter –
A. Smith and Staff
at Ascension Catholic School
LENTEN PRAYER
Holy God, during this Lenten season help us

fundraising program we have at The Holland Park
Garden Gallery is still active. While shopping there,
please mention Ascension school, or provide the school's

pay will to Ascension. Thank you so much for your
support and happy gardening shopping!
God Bless,
Your Ascension Catholic School Parent Council

SCHOOL UNIFORMS
Thank you to our parents for your
support and to our students for
continuing to come in full uniform. We
are a full uniform school as mandated by
the Halton Catholic District School
Board’s Policy 11-41 and all uniform pieces of clothing
must be purchased from R. J. McCarthy’s. Any nonuniform pieces of clothing worn by students to
supplement the uniform and are visible but layered
underneath the uniform (e.g. tights, long sleeved shirt,
undershirt) must be navy blue or white. Scarfs and nonuniform sweatshirts may be worn to school but removed,
once in school. Please be reminded that students will
need as pair of ‘indoor’ shoes to protect their feet once
outdoor shoes or boots are taken off (All indoor
shoes/running shoes should have non-marking soles).
Also at this time of year students and parents should be
reminded that closed toe shoes are necessary for safety
reasons. Students should avoid wearing “flip flops” and
sandals as their toes will be exposed and easily injured.
Thank you for your continued support of our school
dress code.
APRIL PRINCIPAL AWARD FOCUS
LEADERSHIP
What is Leadership?
Leadership is setting good examples and modelling
positive Behaviour
Leadership is listening and working cooperatively with
others
Leadership is doing your best and making a difference
Leadership is having a positive attitude and encouraging
others to do their best
Leadership is knowing the difference between right and
wrong and choosing to do the right thing
How Can I Be a Leader?
You can choose to practice leadership by following rules
and modelling positive behavior. You are a leader when
you make good choices and you help others to do their
best. Younger children learn from watching older
students. You are being a leader when you listen to
others and encourage them to make good choices. By
following rules and choosing to do the right thing, you
are being an active leader.
MAY PRINCIPAL AWARD FOCUS
HONESTY
What Is Honesty?
An honest person is someone who tells the truth
An honest person does not cheat, steal, or lie.
How Can I Be an Honest Person?
Whether at home, school, or the playground, an honest
person always does his best to tell the truth. An honest
person does not steal or cheat. He knows that stealing is
wrong. He could never take a toy, candy, money, or
anything that does not belong to him. Rules and laws
about stealing are made to keep everyone’s property
safe. An honest person would not want to break these
rules or laws. Cheating is also something that an honest
person would not do. Copying someone else’s paper is
not right. Doing your own work and trying to do your
best shows honesty. An honest person keeps his
promises. When an honest person says that he will do a
chore or job for someone, he always does it to the best of
his ability. An honest person makes sure that he
completes the job the way that he was asked to.
ASCENSION’S GOT TALENT
Ascension students are being
asked to dust off the old
instruments, polish up their
dancing shoes, warm up
their vocal chords and do
whatever they need to do because our
school talent show is right around the corner!! Students from
FDK to Gr. 8 have been asked to sign up if interested and with
parent permission, auditions will start soon.
LOST AND FOUND
If your child is missing clothing, boots, lunch boxes,
etc., please encourage them to check the lost and found
regularly. We will NOT take uniform pieces of lost
clothing to the Salvation Army.

NATIONAL VOLUNTEER WEEK
APRIL 12-18
National Volunteer Week pays tribute to the millions of
Canadian volunteers who graciously donate their time
and talents to our communities. Canada’s volunteers
make a tremendous contribution in communities across
the country and around the globe. They make our
communities resilient and our country vibrant. Every
day, Canadians lend a hand to their neighbours and
friends. And many of them don’t realize that in doing so
they’re volunteering. We sincerely thank all of our
wonderful volunteers here at Ascension School, for
generously sharing their time and skills to work
cooperatively with school staff, for the benefit of our
children. Your work is truly appreciated! Ascension staff
is very pleased to invite all of our volunteers to a
Volunteer Appreciation Tea that will be held on
Wednesday, May 6, 2015 during Catholic Education
Week. More details to follow.

Congratulations, Meghan McCormick, the 2015
Ascension Schools’ nominee of the Spirit of Inclusion
Award. Her award will be presented at Graduation. We
are all very proud of you!
NATIONAL WEAR PINK DAY
BULLYING AWARENESS
In recognition of bullying awareness,
Wednesday, April 8, 2015 is designated as
National Wear Pink Day. Wear pink and
bring in $1.00 to support the Halton
Catholic Children’s Foundation to support
children in need. The International Day of Pink was
started in Nova Scotia when 2 high school students saw
another student wearing a pink shirt being bullied. The 2
students intervened, but wanted to do more to prevent
bullying. They decided to purchase pink shirts, and a
few days later got everyone at school to arrive wearing
pink, standing in solidarity. The result was that an entire
school took a stand and began working together to
prevent bullying. The message was clear: anyone can
bully, anyone can be victimized by bullying, but
together we can stop it.
Each year on the second Wednesday of April, millions
of people wear pink and take a stand. The Day of Pink is
a symbol, a spark that empowers and inspires youth
across Canada to create amazing social change!
We as a school community will be taking part in this
powerful movement.
STUDENT AWARDS OF EXCELLENCE
Each year, the Halton Catholic District School Board
acknowledges one student in each of our schools through
the “Sharing the Spirit” student award of excellence. The
purpose of the award is to recognize the outstanding
work and contributions of students in Catholic schools in
Halton. This year, the recipient for Ascension Catholic
School was selected according to the following criteria:
exemplary Catholic leadership qualities, commitment to
family, involvement in school affairs, relationship with
staff and students, and involvement in community
activities. Please join us in extending our congratulations
to Marco T. The ceremony will be held on
Mon. April 27, 2015, 7:30 at Corpus Christi Catholic
Secondary School, Burlington.
Congratulations Marco! We are all very proud to have
you Representing Ascension Catholic School at this
prestigious ceremony.
EQAO ASSESSMENT OF READING,
WRITING AND MATHEMATICS
PRIMARY DIVISION (GRADE 1-3)
JUNIOR DIVISION (GRADE 4-6)
Similar to previous years, our Grade 3 and 6 students
will participate in the Education Quality and
Accountability Office (EQAO) Primary and Junior
Division assessments of Reading, Writing and
Mathematics between May 25th and June 4th, 2015.
These EQAO assessments will continue to be
administered to all students in Grades 3 and 6. Students
will be required to complete three test booklets: one
mathematics booklet, one reading booklet and one
writing booklet. The types of questions in the booklets
will be familiar to your child as they are based on the
kinds of work your child has been doing throughout the
year. The total amount of time that the students will
spend on the testing will be six hours that is generally
spread over the course of two or three days. Sample
questions can be viewed on the EQAO website at
www.eqao.com. We ask that you make every effort to
avoid holidays during these days and to try to make
sure your children are in attendance each day during
the assessment, specifically during the week of
Monday, May 25th to Thursday, June 4th. In
advance, we appreciate your efforts in scheduling
appointments around this block of time. The EQAO
assessment results help us to continue to improve
upon the quality Catholic education offered to your
children. Additional specific information regarding the
assessments will be sent home to our Grade 3 and 6
parents in the month of May.
Catholic schools are Catholic communities. Catholic
schools are faith communities. We – parents, students,
teachers, administrative and support staff – walk and
grow together in the faith which we received at our
Baptism. And it is the ‘together’ that we grow. Our
growth is primarily a relationship with God, who at our
Baptism, called us by name. But the response of each of
us to that growth is both personal and communal. We
grow in our faith in the nurturing atmosphere of our
Catholic community be that of our local parish, our
home, or our Catholic school community.
Our school community will celebrate Catholic Education
Week 2015 in ways that are appropriate to our students’
age. We invite you to participate in one or other of these
activities as your personal time and work schedule may
permit.
There are five sub-themes for each day of Catholic
Education Week:
Monday –
Walking Together and Sharing our
Stories
Tuesday –
Opening the Scriptures
Wednesday – Welcoming Others to the Table
Thursday –
Recognizing Jesus in the Breaking of
the Bread
Friday –
Proclaiming the Good news
Every year, the Ontario Catholic School Trustees’
Association (OCSTA) provides our Catholic schools
with a resource kit to help schools prepare for Catholic
Education Week. Using these resources as well as our
own developed activities we have prepared a series of
activities which will highlight how our school is
‘Exploring Paths of Joy’.
We hope to see many of you during our school
celebrations.
WEST NILE VIRUS
Is my child at risk for becoming infected
with West Nile virus while attending
school?
The mosquitoes that most commonly
carry West Nile virus are generally
more active during the early evening to
early morning. The school yards are mainly located in
open areas on asphalt or short grass/dirt – not conducive
for harboring mosquitoes. As well, the school is actively
involved in reducing mosquito breeding sites (standing
water) and resting sites on school property. For
information on West Nile virus and how it affects your
child at school, on field trips and what precautions to
take, refer to West Nile Virus Information Sheet to be
found on the school web site. The WNV Information
Sheet is a collaborative effort of the Halton Region
Health Department and the Halton Catholic District
School Board. If you cannot access the West Nile Virus
Information Sheet on the school web site please contact
the school office for a copy to be sent home. Parents
interested in finding out more information can connect to
the Halton Region Health Department website:
www.halton.ca/wnv or call the Halton Region Health
Department at: (905) 825-6000.
CAN YOUR CHILD SEE WELL?
Children may not know that they
have a vision problem. They can’t
always tell you what they see. 1 out
of 4 children have a significant eye problem that can
interfere with learning and development. The Ontario
Association of Optometrists recommends that every
young child has complete eye examinations at ages 6
months, 3 years and every year thereafter.
Visit www.EyeSeeEyeLearn.ca
ABORIGINAL AWARNESS MONTH
April is Aboriginal Education Awareness Month at
the Halton Catholic District School Board, and
throughout the month, students and staff across the
district will honour and celebrate the contributions and
the legacy of First Nation, Métis and Inuit peoples in
Canada.
“We look forward each April to celebrating Aboriginal
Education Awareness Month," says Sherry Saevil,
Aboriginal Liaison for the Board. "In
partnership with community
organizations we've planned a number
of events and activities this year that will
honour and recognize Aboriginal perspectives, cultures,
and the entwined histories of Aboriginal and nonAboriginal peoples in Canada."
LIFE-THREATENING ALLERGIES
Food and Peanut Allergies
We ask that you join our staff in taking care to ensure
the safety of all students in the school. As a number of
our students have a potentially life-threatening allergy,
we ask for your cooperation by not sending any snacks
or lunches containing peanut or nut products to school
with your child. Other allergens will be dealt with on an
“as needed” basis.
The following guidelines must be strictly adhered to by
all the students in the school:
 All foods must be eaten in the classroom –
absolutely no food is to be consumed outside or on
the bus.
 Snacks are not to be shared with other students.
 Utensils are not to be shared with other students.
 Hands are to be washed before and after eating
anything that may contain peanut products (this is
also important to remember if students go home for
lunch). Traces of peanut butter or oil can transfer
from hands to bus seats or playground equipment,
desks, and personal belongings.
 Parents are asked to read labels carefully for the
following products that may contain nut products:
granola bars, crackers, chocolate bars and cookies,
some cereals, store baked goods or snacks.
While we realize that this request may pose somewhat of
a challenge for you when packing your child’s snack and
lunch, we wish to express sincere appreciation for your
support and understanding.
The following is a partial list of ingredients on the labels
that will tell you peanut – tree nut protein could be in the
product:
Peanuts:
 Arachis oil, cold pressed peanut oil;
 Goober nuts, goober peanuts, goober peas;
 Hydrolyzed peanut protein, hydrolyzed plant
protein, sweet lupine flour;
 Nu-nuts, Beer nuts, ground nuts, mandolena
nuts, mixed nuts, nuts, peanuts;
 Peanut butter, peanut flour, peanut meal, peanut
oil, peanut protein.
Tree Nuts:
 Almonds, Brazil nuts, Cashews, Chestnuts,
Filberts/ hazelnuts, Hickory nuts, Macadamia
nuts, Pecans, Pine nuts, pinon, pignolias,
Pistachios, Shea nuts, Walnuts;
Mixed nuts, nut butters, nut oils, nut paste, chocolate nut
spreads, mandelonas, marzipan, nu-nuts, nut meats
