Principal

Welcome to St. Mary's School! 

I am honoured and humbled to serve the St. Mary's community as your new Principal and look forward to working with you this year! 

This school is awesome! As we look forward to a summer break and a new school year I'm so excited about what we have in store. We truly have something for everyone here! Our Fine Arts Academy is always sharing their talents with the community. Our French Immersion students fundraise and travel to Quebec. Our Alternative Program is reaching students with diverse learning needs. And our General Program has the widest variety of options in the city. On top of all of this our extracurricular offerings are second to none: we have successful sports teams, our annual musical production and clubs that cater to countless interests. Most importantly, the staff at this school love kids and it shows.

Aside from working at school, I have many interests and hobbies. In the summer I enjoy golfing (even though I'm not very good), disc golfing, and going for bike rides with my daughter. In the winter I enjoy skiing. I love music and can play many different instruments. Most recently I've learned the mandolin and enjoy playing fiddle tunes with my wife!

See you soon!

Mr. van Middelkoop
