Hello Wards 11 & 12,  

I hope the first few months of the 2024-25 school year treated your family well, and your child(ren) had a successful return to HWDSB classrooms and learning spaces.     

On Monday September 9, we had the first Board Meeting of the year.  I am thrilled to continue to serve the Ward 11 & 12 communities, and alongside my fellow Trustees, I look forward to seeing the vision, mission and values of the Board progress for another year in support of HWDSB students, staff and families.  For those who may be interested, you can find the dates of all Board meetings, as well as a link to our livestream, here.   

In support of our Multi-Year Strategic Plan, teams have been working at schools across HWDSB, including accessibility updates to washrooms and changerooms at Ancaster Secondary School, gym flooring updates at Ecole Elementaire Michaelle Jean, and ground sign installations at Rousseau. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about these or other renovation projects in Wards 11 & 12. 

As we shift from Fall to Winter in the coming months, I wanted to make sure you know where to find the most up-to-date HWDSB information.  I encourage you to subscribe to your child’s school website, follow the Board on Instagram @hwdsb, and look for HWDSB’s monthly NOW@HWDSB newsletter in your email inbox.    

And, if you’re looking for a way to support local students, local artists, and experience an entertaining show, a never-before-seen collaboration between Waterdown-based singing groups Harbourtown Sound and A Capella Showcase will be banding together with local students from Young Voices to produce a Holiday Spectacular show on November 30. Part of the proceeds from the show will benefit HWDSB’s charity of choice—the Hamilton Foundation for Student Success—to offer grants to HWDSB students in need from all across the board. For more information, check out this link. 

As the year continues, I look forward to hearing about the exciting activities and initiatives taking place in Ward 11 and 12 – and I will be back to you with another update in the New Year.   

Sincerely, 

Trustee Amanda Fehrman
