Fitness Leadership - Burnaby (ACE-IT)

A Farewell message ...

Hello Fitness Leadership students and Alumni,

I wanted to drop you a brief post to let you know that I have accepted a position as Vice Principal of Pinetree Secondary School in Coquitlam effective January 30th. I will leave Alpha and the Burnaby School District with many fond memories and great appreciation for all with whom I have enjoyed a long educational journey. I have received many kind phone calls and texts from several colleagues and thought it best I share this information with all of you directly as I plan to inform current students in classes personally on Monday. As I begin to transition to Pinetree, I would like to say a huge thank you to all of you and let you know that I will dearly miss our frequent, if not daily, interactions. I will be checking in from time to time on the Fit Family of which I will always be a member; yeah fb!

The Fitness Leadership Program truly is a VERY SPECIAL PROGRAM and it is without doubt that it is each student within it, current and past, that makes it so. I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing my learning journey with each of you and feel blessed to have forged the many professional and personal relationships over the years. We have learned many lessons together along the way and I am EXTRAORDINARILY PROUD to have been part of such a caring, benevolent, and health conscious group of students.

I leave the Fitness Leadership Program in the most capable of hands with Ogz and I know you all will continue to do fabulous things to promote and lead Healthy Living initiatives in your communities for your selves and others. I am sure our paths will cross again many times; please don't hesitate to drop in for a visit or just to say hello if you're ever in the Pinetree area. I will dearly miss our annual reunions "Pumping and Blowing", "Sweeping the Ice", and most of all "Filling our Buckets" together! Thank you! ;)

Humbly yours,
Cheryl your "Fit Momma"
