A Forum for Responsive Discipleship February 27, 2012

I was noting the ebb and flow of the school calendar this past week.  As the weeks go by and I outline the week ahead I am often struck by the number of events at our school.  We offer a comprehensive curriculum that covers a variety of subjects and, completing this, are wonderful programs that are geared to help develop the gifts of our students and provide a forum for our students to faithfully respond to God.  Student Council does a wonderful job leading multiple events and it provides some of our students unique leadership opportunities.  We continue to have a strong, competitive sports program at the school as well.  Later this week some of our students well be competing in a public speaking contest.  The intramural program has just ran its course for the grades 4-6 and will kick off in the upper end soon.  I also think back to our Winter Enrichment program that provided a number of opportunities for our students as well.   I find all these activities provide a forum for our students to develop their gifts, respond to their Creator, and experience a sense of community at Dundas Calvin Christian School.  I am thankful for the many opportunities our students have through our co-curricular programs to develop the gifts God has given them.   To God be the glory.  ~ Mr. Bouwers
