First Chapel Gathering
“This is my favourite day of the year!” said Mr. Robertson as he addressed students on the first day of classes. After introducing new staff members to the School, the Headmaster delivered what he described as his essential message to students and staff. “As we go into this school year, the challenge is to make it even better than the last several outstanding years at Shawnigan. Let's maintain our strengths and work at addressing any weaknesses. Above all, we are known as a very friendly, caring environment where people give of their best in everything, adopting an honest, wholehearted approach at every turn. At the same time, we are not afraid to talk about our mistakes and missteps. At Shawnigan, what you see is what you get and we always exceed expectations!”
