With spring comes new life and new growth - there's nothing like it. When our young writers bloom - now, there's a great cause for celebration! But, let's remember all new growth needs nurture. The parents, teaching staff and school council at Greenbank have all actively contributed to the success of our young writers. A special thanks goes to our own award-winning author, David Kitz, for being the driving force behind this anthology. Daily, our literacy teachers make a difference in the lives of our children through the power of words. It is through this power that our students will grow, bloom and flourish. Now, I invite you to stick your nose in a book - this book - On the Greener Side and catch a refreshing whiff of new life. Nadia Towaij-White Principal Greenbank Middle School
