Scott Eddyvean
Humble. A team player. Quiet. A budding leader. Enthusiastic.
Scott is a student who recognizes the joy of making the assist, rather than
getting the goal. The reason, ―I just want to see them get a shot!‖ This
year, Scott ran for his classroom council and won as the Sports and Leisure
representative. He puts forth a solid effort to the Junior/Intermediate
divisional activities at Mary Immaculate School. In the classroom and out,
Scott is a student who perseveres over challenging tasks and takes to heart what is said to
him.
As a means to share what Scott emits from himself, here are a few words from Mother
Teresa:
―Be the living expression of God’s kindness—kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes,
kindness in your smile . . . ―
I applaud you and thank you, Scott, for bringing this to Mary Immaculate Community School
each and every day.
Shayla MacLennan
Shayla MacLennan is a student that has grown into herself as a person over
the course of the past few years.
When she entered the Junior Division at Mary Immaculate, she was unsure of
herself, who she was and what she was willing to do that would make her
stand out from her classmates. That uncertain girl has grown into a
confident, strong-minded individual who will speak out, who will choose to
stand out to be herself and let others be themselves. She demonstrates a
willingness to put herself at risk, especially for others that need support.
Shayla is confident in her ideas and her sense of right and wrong. She will speak up for
others, when they seem alone. She will ensure that classmates are not left out. She
consistently works to improve the morale of others and the sense of spirit in the class and
school. Because of her maturity and strong sense of self she has become a determined
leader. She projects a positive image of self that others can emulate. She is well-liked by all
ages in the school, as well as the adults that work at Mary Immaculate. She is someone who
is sought out for assistance. Shayla welcomes any opportunity to help others and grow more
as an individual.
When asked who deserves this award, Shayla’s name came to mind without hesitation as
someone who is silently applauded every day for her accepting, positive attitude as well as
her strength as a leader and demonstration of understanding and empathy
towards others.

You are the light of the world...No one after lighting a lamp
puts it under the bushel basket, but on the lampstand and
it gives light to all in the house...Let your light shine before
others, so that they may see your good works and give
glory to your Father in Heaven.
~ Mt. 5.14

Holy Family School Hanover
Melena Cook
Melena is a kind, caring, quiet Grade 5 student at Holy Family School. In speaking with
her teachers, past and present, Melena is a student who is consistent in her efforts,
attitude and behaviour. She perseveres with her academic work. Melena strives to do her
best regardless of the subject or its level of difficulty.
Melena is faithful to her daily tasks of helping out during the lunch hour in the Grade One
classroom. She hands out milk, pizzas, subs, opens up containers and helps students
clean up spills. Melena tends to tidy up the classroom after everyone is finished eating. As the teacher who is
on the receiving end of her generosity and helping hand, I am most appreciative of her thoughtful gestures.
Melena keeps everyone on their toes when it comes to bus time at the end of the day. She is responsible for
calling buses as they arrive at our school. Melena’s announcements keep our procedures organized and
trouble free.
More than anything, I would like to recognize Melena’s nurturing quality and dedication to her younger brother
Simon. Simply put, she loves Simon and does not hesitate to show it on a daily basis. In her very quiet and
humble manner, Melena shows her love and patience playing, working and talking with him. Simon is very
lucky to have an older sister who looks out for him. Holy Family School is fortunate to have Melena as one of
our super, great students!
Congratulations on receiving the 2012 Applause Award for Holy Family School. You deserve it Melena!!

St. Anthony’s School Kincardine
Brett Colhoun
On any given day, many students will say good morning to the other
students and staff in the hallways of St. Anthony’s school when the
greeting is expressed to them. There are however, a few students who
will go out of their way, to say good morning to others without being
prompted; one such student is Brett Colhoun. Brett is a kind and
courteous person who always thinks of others before himself. He is
thoughtful and displays compassion and empathy when interacting with
other students. To every situation, Brett brings with him a positive
attitude, a drive to do his very best and an encouraging smile. Brett is currently in Grade 8
and is an active participant in both academic and social life at St. Anthony’s. Throughout his
years at St. Anthony’s, he has been an active contributor to many sports teams and other
extra curricular activities such as Chess Club and Spirit in Motion. This year, his role on our
Student Council has allowed him to shine as an excellent example to other students of how
positive leadership skills and our Catholic Virtues can be expressed on a daily basis. As Brett
graduates this year, he will be greatly missed, not only for his athletic ability, but for his
thoughtfulness towards others.

assemblies. He is the student you turn to whenever you need audiovisual
equipment or computer advice. He is known around the school as being
St. Anthony’s Computer Guy! Sean Castillo is a Grade 8 student at St.
Anthony’s School. He is a motivated and enthusiastic student who can
often be found spending his free time helping others, both staff and
students, around the school. Sean is a kind person who thinks of others
before himself. He always has a smile on his face and is first to be a volunteer when the
need arises. Not only does Sean excel in his computer skills but he also holds himself to high
academic standards. He works very hard to achieve excellent marks and takes pride in the
academic work that he does. Sean also contributes to many different extra curricular
activities in the school. He has participated in many sports teams as well as non athletic
clubs such as Student Council. Sean is also active in our local Church community,
occasionally playing in the Saturday Mass Music Ministry. Sean displays positive leadership
skills in everything he does. He is also an excellent example of our Catholic Virtues at work
everyday. As Sean graduates this year, he will be greatly missed, not only for his computer
skills, but for his smiling face and caring personality.
...Yours are the eyes through which Christ
looks with compassion on this world...

a huge accomplishment. After High school Damien is thinking of taking an apprenticeship in

heart. He quietly goes about serving others and expects nothing in return. It was noted, that
