Dear Parents and Guardians,

Welcome Back!

Week 1 is over and whew – what a week! It was HOT! Staff and students have persevered and bore the heat! I

think our air conditioner was still on summer break. There were lots of new students registering to attend

BCSS. This, to me, proves that BCSS is THE place to be! It’s been a good week and the students, and staff,

are settling in to their school routine really well. Our Grade 9’s look to be a really good group and are making

an excellent transition to high school. I have included some clubs and teams announcements that you could

point out to your teen, if you think they might be interested and may have missed the announcement.

The format of this newsletter is BCSS/SCDSB news/announcements, followed by Sports and Volunteer

announcements. Sometimes announcements have an extended date on them, like scholarship news or

community events, so I leave them in subsequent newsletters. At the end of each newsletter, I have two

articles, Positively Speaking, and Parent’s Corner, that you could read and potentially discuss with your teen.

This newsletter is to focus on the great, positive things that happen at Bear Creek, and allows me to brag about

this school (which we don’t do enough of).

I am always open to suggestions and comments, so please contact me at twilkinson@scdsb.on.ca if you have

something on your mind.

To the members of Bear Creek’s Islamic Community, I wish your wishes are fulfilled and your prayers are

answered as you observe Eid al-Adha.

E-newsletters are available on the Bear Creek website: http://bss.scdsb.on.ca/

Breakfast Club

Bear Creek’s Eat Well to Excel - Breakfast Club begins next week. Students who miss breakfast at home can

get a nutritious breakfast at school prior to period 1. This will be located in the main forum. We are very

fortunate and grateful for the assistance of Tim Horton’s who are donating bagels, muffins, scones and

croissants. While there is no cost to the student, the program depends on donations from our community to

keep going. We are asking parents and community members for donations of the following to help with our

costs: cereal bars (peanut-free), cheese, fresh fruit, bagels, jams, non-hydrogenated margarine, light cream

cheese, 100% juice boxes, multi-grain breads, yogurt, muffins, dried fruit, raisin boxes, granola/fruit bars, and

cash. Anything you can assist with, would be greatly appreciated. If you wish more information about the

program or wish to donate, please contact Terry Wilkinson at (705)725-7712, voice mail, 43664. Bear Creek's

priority is to have healthy students!

Student Accident Insurance 2016-17

Student injuries at school, during school events, and extra-curricular activities (athletics, clubs, and out-of-

province/out-of-country trips) are not covered by the Board or its insurance company. While every precaution is

taken to provide a safe learning environment, accidents can and do happen. It is essential that all students

participating in extra-curricular activities have adequate insurance coverage for all instances of injury. The

Simcoe County District School Board has selected the “insure my kids” program through Old Republic Canada

as an option for students/parents/guardians to consider with regards to purchasing student accident insurance

coverage for the upcoming school year. The coverage is for 24 hours a day. This insurance offers a variety of

plans and benefits at reasonable annual prices. Coverage can be purchased online at www.insuremykids.com.

Please watch for your student accident insurance package along with a letter about requirements for extra-

curricular activities and out-of-province or out-of-country trips. Back to Table of Contents

Now Accepting Applications for Loran Scholar Foundation Awards

Online applications are now open for the Loran Awards. Students can find out more about eligibility criteria, the

application process and see a sample copy of the application form.

Each high school can sponsor up to three students for these scholarships, which are valued at up to $100,000 each

over four years of university. October 19 is the deadline for sponsored applications.

If more than three students are interested in applying, some can apply without sponsorship to the direct pool. Direct

pool applications are due October 26.

What do we look for in selecting scholars?

Loran Scholars are young people who deeply value integrity and honesty. They are curious by nature, and are

interested in a wide range of subjects. Furthermore, they are willing to take meaningful risks and prioritize results

over appearances. Each one has shown a sustained commitment to service in the community, has taken the initiative

to create positive changes and is interested in working for a better world.

Sponsorship & Reference Guidelines

1. Candidates wishing to be sponsored must select Sponsored by my school in the online application, and

then enter the name and email address of their school sponsor under School Contact in the Educational Background

section.

2. Every candidate must get a letter of reference, whether they end up in either the sponsored or direct pool.

The reference does not have to be completed by the school sponsor. Anyone who knows the candidate and their

activities well, who is not a family member or a friend, may complete the letter of reference.

3. Once the letter of reference has been submitted, the school contact will receive an email asking whether or

not the student is being sponsored by the school. This email will include a copy of the student's application and

transcript. The online sponsorship form takes about 2 minutes to complete.

4. It is the responsibility of the candidate to ensure that both the reference writer and the school sponsor have

sufficient time to complete their parts before the deadline. We are encouraging all candidates to express interest to

their schools as early as possible.

5. If the student is not one of the sponsored candidates, or if their sponsorship is not complete by October 21,

they will be automatically entered into the direct pool.

Link Crew

Link Crew members are senior level students who are the leaders of the school. Link Crew members are an

excitable, enthusiastic bunch who are the guides/mentors/ambassadors to the incoming grade nines. On

Thursday, September 1st, we had the Grade 9’s at the school for team building activities, with the Link Crew.

Hearty thanks go out to all the staff that came out to introduce themselves to the students, as well as barbecue

the lunch, as well as to Ms. Sue Ketcheson, Ms. Heather Robert, and Mr. Matt Dawson who ran and organized

the daylong event. A huge round of applause and thanks go out to our Link Crew members for their efforts.

Dress Code

With the warm weather still here, we usually have an increase in dress code violations in an effort to stay cool.

This week was especially warm, thus, many students were still in beach mode.

One of the things that always happens when a warm summer continues into the new school year is students

keep out their summer clothes. We see a continued use of flip flops, tank tops, shorts and muscle shirts

appearing in and around the school. We usually have to remind students that there are appropriate places for

some items of clothing that they wear ….but it may not be at school!

For example:

Short shorts are not really appropriate at school. How short is short? Well, we don’t use a ruler to measure

them, but generally speaking if the tips of a student’s fingers extend below the hem of the shorts, then the shorts

are probably too short. Another guideline I have been using recently is if the material of the front pocket can be

seen below the hem of the shorts, the shorts or most likely too short.

Tank Tops and Muscle Shirts: We do allow students to wear these in phys. ed. classes, but they should not

be worn outside of the gym. There is a myth out there, called the “three finger rule”, that says if the straps of

the top are more than three fingers wide the top is OK. Our students have been told that the expectation is

that clothing provides “an uninterrupted line of clothing covering the body from top of the shoulders to

mid-thigh”. Tops should also have appropriate necklines that are not too revealing and there should not be

inappropriate graphics (drugs, weapons, alcohol, etc.) or expressions (profanity, etc.) on the top. Instead of

spaghetti straps, think lasagna noodles!

The choice of footwear is somewhat more flexible, but it must be appropriate (for safety reasons) to the

class. While sandals may be appropriate in an English class, they would not be appropriate in a technical class

or a science class (spilled chemicals could pose a hazard).

For everyone’s benefit, please remember we strive to be a SCENT FREE school. Cologne, body sprays

and perfume are NOT to be sprayed anywhere in the building, including at lockers and in change rooms. There

are students and staff in our school whose health is affected when scents are sprayed. Your cooperation is not

only appreciated, it is required. Back to Table of Contents

Positively Speaking

I am a huge fan of the Olympics and the Paralympics, preferring the winter to the summer games, as Canada

seems more successful in the winter, but I am cheering the Canadians on nonetheless. The Pan Am/Para Pan

Am Games were a huge hit, hopefully leading to a Summer Olympic bid for 2024. Canada received a record

number of medals (I believe 22) at this year’s summer Games!

The Games are very inspiring for many reasons, but especially for those who have been resilient and continued

through adversity to make it to the world’s biggest game-stage. Here are some of those stories from both the

Olympics and Paralympics.

10 Inspiring Stories From Olympians Who Overcame Adversity For Rio 2016

The Olympics – that time every four years when the world comes together to gawk at the superior members of

our species and feel inadequate.

But it’s also a time to be inspired by these people’s amazing stories of fortitude and endurance.

The Olympics isn’t just about taking home gold medals. It’s about standing tall on the world stage, showing

how high you can reach when you triumph against all the odds.

Here are some of the most inspirational stories from this year’s Olympic Games.

Simone Biles, 19, USA

Simone Biles was taken into care at the age of five (Picture: Getty Images)

American gymnast Simone Biles is

undoubtedly the shining star of Rio 2016.

A newcomer to the Olympics, she’s so far

ahead of her competition that other

gymnasts joked that the real contest was to

see who placed second.

But her life hasn’t been easy.

Her biological mother struggled with

serious drug and alcohol abuse, and when

Simone was just five she was taken into

care.

Simone and her sister Adria, who was three

at the time, stayed in a foster home in Ohio waiting to be adopted – until her biological grandparents, Ron and

Nellie, found out what had happened and decided to adopt the girls themselves.

It was while living with her new parents that Simone’s talent began to flourish – and she would be on her way

to becoming one of the greatest gymnasts of our time.

Yusra Mardini, 18, Refugee Yusra Mardini at Berlin’s Olympic stadium (Picture: Getty)

Yusra Mardini is the face of the Olympics’

first ever team of refugees.

She had a budding swimming career in her

home city of Damascus, but when the civil

war started her pool was bombed and life

was increasingly perilous. Her family

realized that they had to flee.

And her incredible swimming talents ended

up saving both her life and those of around

20 other people, when her dinghy broke

down in the Mediterranean.

Yusra, her sister Sarah and two other

swimmers ended up pulling the dinghy to

shore by grabbing onto its rope and swimming to land.

Zahra Nemati, 31, Iran Iran’s Zahra Nemati re-trained in archery (Picture: AP)

Zahra Nemati originally planned

to compete in taekwondo – a

martial art she excelled in.

But then, when she was 18, she

was hit by a car. The accident

shattered her spine and she was

paralyzed from the waist-down.

This didn’t stop her Olympic

dreams though. Zahra, who is now

wheelchair-bound, re-trained in

archery – and is so good that she’s

qualified to compete in both the

Paralympics and the Olympics,

against able-bodied athletes.

She’s already broken records. In

London’s 2012 Paralympics, she

became the first Iranian woman to win a gold medal in either the Olympics or the Paralympics.

Zahra was also chosen to be the flag-bearer for Iran at the opening ceremony – proudly leading out a team

dominated by men.

Chris Mears, 23, Great Britain Chris Mears, right, took gold with his diving partner

Jack Laugher (Picture: Getty Images)

Along with Jack Laugher, Chris Mears won

Britain’s first ever gold medal in diving.

But just seven years ago things didn’t look so

promising for Chris.

He contracted the life-threatening Epstein

Barr virus, and was given just a 5% chance

of survival.

In 2009 the diver suffered a ruptured spleen

and collapsed, losing five pints of blood. He

stayed in hospital for a month, and had to

have his spleen removed.

He made a full recovery and returned to the Games in 2010, finishing fourth in the synchro at the

Commonwealth Games.

Lopez Lomong, 31, USA

Lopez Lomong was one of the Lost Boys of Sudan (Picture: Getty Images)

South Sudanese-American Lopez Lomong

was one of thousands of child refugees

caught up in the country’s horrific civil war.

He was one of the Lost Boys of Sudan – a

group of more than 20,000 boys of the Nuer

and Dinka ethnic groups who were

displaced or orphaned during the war.

Lopez was abducted at the age of six while

attending Catholic Mass, and was assumed

dead by his family. He almost died in

captivity, but other people from his village

helped him escape.

He sought refuge in the US in 2001, and

became a naturalized citizen in 2007.

For many years he assumed his parents had been killed by the Sudan People’s Liberation Army, but in 2003 he

was reunited with his parents.

Yiech Pur Biel, 21, Refugee Yiech Pur Biel fled South Sudan eleven years ago (Picture: AP)

Yiech Pur Biel fled South Sudan 11 years

ago to escape the civil war, and ended up

living in a refugee camp for 10 years.

Because of this, his training for Rio has been

unconventional.

He only started running a year ago, and has

said that there were ‘no facilities in the

camp, not even shoes’.

But now he will run in the 800 m, and just

wants to ‘show the world that, being a

refugee, you can do something’.

Yolande Bukasa Mabika, 28, Refugee

Yolande Bukasa Mabika, left, competes against

Israeli judoka Linda Bolder (Picture: Reuters)

Yolande Bukasa Mabika, a judoka, is

from Bukavu in the Democratic

Republic of Congo – one of the worst

affected areas in the country’s brutal

civil war from 1998 to 2003.

She was separated from her parents at a

very young age, and was eventually

found and taken to a centre for

displaced children in Kinshasa. It was

here that she took up judo.

‘Judo never gave me money, but it gave

me a strong heart,’ she said. ‘I got

separated from my family and used to

cry a lot. I started judo to have a better life.’

Jillion Potter, 30, USA Jillion Potter overcame a broken neck and cancer (Picture: AP)

American rugby sevens star Jillion Potter

has overcome every hurdle put in her

way to compete in the Olympics.

In 2010 she broke her neck during a

game against Canada – an injury that

could have left her as a paraplegic,

preventing her from ever playing rugby

again. However, she was back in the

game just one year later.

She went on to play in the 2013 Rugby

Sevens World Cup – with what she

would find out was a tumour in her

mouth, later diagnosed as a rare Stage III

synovial sarcoma.

Her subsequent battle with cancer, chemotherapy and radiotherapy led to her being dubbed US rugby’s ‘great

survivor’.

Now, just three years since her diagnosis, she’s back on the pitch at Rio 2016.

Houry Gebeshian, 27, Armenia

Houry Gebeshian works night shifts delivering babies –

and then goes to the gym (Picture: Reuters)

American-Armenian Houry Gebeshian is a

gymnast for the Armenian team – and a

physician’s assistant the rest of the time.

She told the BBC that she works nights and

weekends delivering babies, and then spends

her free time around that at the gym.

‘I work a 24-hour shift on Sunday and a 16-hour

shift on Wednesday, but the days that I’m not

working I’ll be in the gym,’ she told the BBC.

‘I get off at around 7am, I take a bit of time off

work – I’ll take a nap for about three hours –

and then I’ll head straight to the gym.’

Rafaela Silva, 24, Brazil

Rafaela Silva won Brazil’s first gold at Rio (Picture: Reuters)

Rafaela Silva, a judo star, grew up in Rio’s

most infamously violent favela – the City of

God.

As a child she faced poverty, inequality and

racism – and was first enrolled in judo by her

family in order to keep her away from a life of

gangs and drugs.

Years later, she’s just earned Brazil its first

gold medal in this year’s Games.

Juliana Barbassa, who wrote about the City of

God and is a native Brazilian, told the BBC:

‘It’s a situation of literal marginalization – they

were pushed to the margins.

‘To get out of it as Silva has done is really challenging. She literally had to fight her way out of the

environment.’

Parent’s Corner

With a new school year comes new classes and different types of HOMEWORK. I used to call it HOMEFUN.

Physiologically, HOMEFUN leaves your mouth in somewhat of a smiling position – smiley and positive ;

HOMEWORK draws the lips down as one says it – sad and negative . Look in the mirror and try it – it

works. It makes you laugh at the silliness of it because it really still comes down to doing school work at home.

Not a real pleasant task. I had one student write me a note which said: “I know you called it ‘homefun’, but it

really wasn’t that much fun at all!’” I still chuckle (maybe even maniacally laugh) at that.

I thought the below article was appropriate.

Build Responsibility and Motivate Your Teen to Do Unpleasant Tasks

Whether it’s taking out the trash or studying Spanish verbs, there are some tasks that aren’t fun. Yet they need

to be done if we want to live in a clean home (or pass Spanish).

There are ways to motivate your teen to do those chores and develop the responsibility to do them without

nagging. Here are some tips:

Be up front. Trash removal is messy and not much fun. Tell your teen you get that. You’ve acknowl-

edged that their feelings are valid. But they still has to do their part.

Don’t offer rewards for things outside your teen’s control. If you pay for every A, they may simply stop

trying if they think they can never earn that grade. Instead, focus on the things your teen can control.

They control whether - and how much - they study.

Be a role model. It’s hard to tell a teen to exercise if you’re a couch potato. Remember that you teach

by example.

Make rewards small, if you do offer them. Too much emphasis on rewards actually decreases

motivation. So give a small, mostly symbolic reward for a job well done.
