ESSAGE
A nother great year at Malvern is drawing to a close. It has been a tremendous privilege to witness the unending accomplishments of Malvern staff and students on a daily space. After student programs have been settled in September students are expected to carry their courses through to completion in June. Withdrawal from a course may be considered in December and March if the student has attended basis in so many areas. Once again Malvern students have been dominant in athletics, outstanding in their academic and regularly and made a sincere effort in the course.
Students who have outstanding textbooks or library books should return these to the Attendance Office before school literacy skills and without equal in their musical, dramatic and artistic abilities. I have wonderful memories of the fine work of our students this year. Malvern students raised over $ 5,400.00 this year opens. Please notify the Attendance Office if you have decided not to return to Malvern in September.
I would like to extend my best wishes to 4 members of our total during the 30 Hour Famine an amazing which has been sent to the World Vision organization. Students also did us proud in their superb performances at the Massey Hall Concert, the Boardwalk Ball, staff who retired in June. Happy retirement to Hank Hoos and
Penny Vincent teachers at Malvern for 8 years each, Ian
Urquhart our Curriculum Leader of Social Studies here for 15 years and Shauna Earle here for 17 years. A sincere thank you God and the Laramie Project. It has been an amazing year for our athletic program. Once again Malvern athletes were a force to be reckoned with in hockey, baseball, swimming, synchro, volleyball, basketball, soccer, rugby and lacrosse just to name a few. In addition to many local field trips for your many years of service to students at Malvern.
Classes for the fall term will begin with a special schedule day on Tuesday, September 5 th (see enclosed flyer). Grade 9
Malvern students traveled to Chicago, New York, Costa Rica,
Scotland, England, France, Switzerland and Italy. All these wonderful activities occurred because Malvern teachers continue to give up so much of their personal time and energy to ensure that students get an education inside and outside the classroom as well. A sincere thank you goes out to these dedicated professionals for all that they do for our students.
I would also like to thank the parents for their tremendous and ongoing support in making Malvern a better place to grow and learn. Our Parent Council members have been instrumental in contacting TDSB and Ministry officials and voicing their concerns about badly needed improvements to our school's facilities. Thanks to their relentless efforts the school now has four new state-of-the-art student washrooms, new pool blocks and new boilers. During the summer the school's facade, bricks and cornices will be completely upgraded and repainted. As well the entire building will have new energy efficient windows installed throughout. I am looking forward to Malvern's new and improved appearance in the fall!
As this school year ends we are already preparing for next year. We will again have early registration dates for picking up timetables, student agendas and to have student's school photo I.D.s taken. We are requesting that students bring
$50.00 with them to cover the cost of student activity cards, agendas and yearbooks. Please see the enclosed Registration
Bulletin for more details.
Please note that changes to timetables in September may only be considered due to conflicts, summer school results or graduation requirements. They are contingent upon available students will report to the auditorium at 9:00 am and will be dismissed by 11:30 am. Students in Grades 10 to 12 should report to the school at 1:00 pm. Master lists of home form classrooms will be posted in several locations on the first floor of the building. Students should locate their home form classes, be in attendance by 1:00 pm and will be dismissed at
2:00 pm. School will resume with a regular schedule on
Wednesday, September 6th.
All Malvern students are responsible for contributing to a safe, enjoyable school environment. It is expected that senior students will demonstrate this and welcome our junior students appropriately in September.
Finally, I want to thank all of you for your tremendous support throughout the year and wish you a safe and relaxing summer.

As I complete the printing of final report cards, I find myself looking back fondly at the past school year: the musical and dramatic talents displayed in assemblies, the athletic abilities raising spirit, the academic successes, the fund-raising and the growth in all areas of teenage school life.
This has been my fourth year as vice-principal here, and it has also therefore been my pleasure to work with our graduating students during their entire Malvern C.I. experience! Through the laughter and tears, it’s all been good.
Thus while smiling upon the completion of these report cards I feel an enormous sense of pride at being connected to Malvern
C.I. Our staff, students and parents should all be proud of the accomplishments of this past (and every) school year.
Well done, Malvern – here’s to the songs, the plays, the sports, the academic and personal growth – past and future!

A fter months of selling fudge, la Srta. Geddes, la Srta.
Fontes and eleven Malvernite girls set out to Costa Rica on March 1 st . After leaving a snow storm in Toronto, we arrived in San José and were surprised by how it could be so hot in March (who knew?). From the airport, we embarked on the first of many bus rides through the busy streets of San
José. We arrived at the school (Saint Mary High School), and were greeted by out partners, or as we called them “hermanas”
(sisters). Costa Ricans are extremely friendly people. They welcomed us into their homes and their lives, and treated us as if we were a part of their families. Throughout the two and a half weeks we were there, we saw a lot of the beautiful country, its environment, and its wildlife. We visited two volcanoes, the rainforest, a coffee plantation, a school for niños, the market in downtown San José, an amusement park, the beach, and were chased by a man dressed up as a deer. On the 18 th of March, we packed out bags, said goodbye to out families and friends, and left Costa Rica. Our Costa Rican partners are hoping to visit Toronto in October. Thank you,
Srta. Geddes and Srta. Fontes, for the amazing experience.
¡PURA VIDA!

T his year, the girls’ rugby team has proven that the boys are not the only rugby powerhouse of the school. Starting our season with a very tough game and an even tougher loss, the girls went on to win four consecutive games to close out the season with a record 4-1 and second place in our division.
In the semi-finals, we played a very good game against
Leaside, who ended up winning. Although this was a heartbreaking loss, we have gained so much this year. The progress that all of the girls have made is outstanding and impressive. Watch out for Malvern next year!

T he boys’ lacrosse team had a very successful season finishing the year with a record of 17-1. They won in the

Brampton Centennial tournament by defeating St. Andrews,
Cardinal Leger, Turner Fenton and St. Michael’s. In the City
Finals they defeated Agincourt by the score of 12-2.
By winning the City, the team advanced to the Provincials in
St. Catharines. Their only loss of the season was against
Hagersville in overtime by the score of 8-7. The loss prevented the team from advancing to the medal rounds. However, the boys recovered quickly from the loss and proceeded to win the
Consolation. I would like to thank Garret Kikot and
Tom Koger for their outstanding contribution to Malvern’s lacrosse team.
