Sir Edgar Bauer Catholic School Advisory Council Annual Report for 2022-23
Guest Presentations are coming! We are excited to welcome two upcoming presentations for our K-8 students:
- Chris Gray (4-8) on Sept. 26th
Chris is a retired pro wrestler turned motivational speaker. Chris will tell stories of his humble beginnings where he had the dream to one day wrestle in the same ring as his childhood heroes sharing the lesson – “You can be whatever you want to be … if you put in the work.”
- Steve Seftel (K-3) on Oct. 16
Steve Seftel, a local citizen and retired professional NHL hockey player, minor hockey coach, and mental health and wellness advocate has traded his passion for sticks and pucks for pens and paper with his first book, SHATTERED ICE; a personal story about the rigour of becoming a professional athlete, the euphoric wins, and the price of glory, both mentally and physically. Steve lives and continues to coach minor hockey in Waterloo, where he is focused on bringing out the best in aspiring young hockey players, and openly talks about his struggles with anxiety. Steve is committed to sharing his story, and educating players and parents on mental health wellness and awareness. Steve will be reading his newest picture book which will also be available for sale after reading (books will be sold at a reduced price of $10 for families who wish to purchase).
