Director's Message
Dear Colleagues,
Hope you had a pleasant long weekend.
The census date for all RSPE PDRs is looming and is a good opportunity to round-off discussions with your supervisor around how your work weaves into the Department 3-6-9. Your PDR, in combination with the 3-6-9, forms the basis for our first School-wide retreat, planned for around mid-year. Please have a look at the PDR notes, there are some examples of how you can articulate your contributions over the coming year. School-wide, over 60% of PDRs are now due and must all be completed by May 1st.
This week’s pic shows some of gorgeous morning tea provided to celebrate International Women’s Day, last Friday.
Have a great, short, week.
