WELCOME TO TOSH!
We will be using this website to provide valuable information for Grade 9 students transitioning to TOSH. Specifically you will find course selection information, a video and photos showcasing the building, and names and photos of some TOSH Staff.
Tour dates have been set and will be communicated with you through your current school. For now, please take a look at this video created by Kes Sabine for CMM801A and pictures below. Hopefully we will be able to start September 2024 off with a Grade 10 Day like we have the last couple of years. This provided time for students new to TOSH to get to know the layout of the school, meet their teachers, and meet other grade 10 students with a smaller number of students present.
We will be sending a letter home to parents and students shortly outlining the registration process. The short version is:
1) Mrs. Caseley Smith and Ms. DeCoste visit classes to share information about TOSH and course selection in February.
2) Mrs. Caseley Smith and Ms. DeCoste offer information to parents about TOSH and course selection (this website and there will be a Grade 9 Parent/Guardian Information session February 22 at 6:30 at TOSH [storm date is February 29]).
3) Teachers make recommendations regarding levels for course selection which are sent home.
4) Students select courses and they are entered into the system.
We are here to help you if you have any questions. We look forward to meeting you.
Here are members of the Student Services Team, Administration, School Resource Officer, and Administrative Assistants. You can contact TOSH by calling 902-888-8460. All of the email addresses for TOSH staff can be found on the main TOSH website at https://threeoaks.edu.pe.ca/

Message from Ms. Bryson - TOSH Music Department
Hello Grade 9 students and parents!
The TOSH Music program is exploding with the combination of our amazing new Popular Music Performance program and our already wonderful TOSH Band Program. I cannot describe to you the magic that is happening in this space every day and I strongly urge any students who love making music to check out this google site that I've made as an overview. It has great info on what we're offering, feedback from the students, a tour of the music department, and amazing footage. You really have to see it to believe it!
Please contact me anytime! It's my life's work to create this amazing space for students to express themselves and we're rapdily evolving to offer more and more unique opportunities, including access to state of the art recording equipment and performance spaces. Can't wait to see you in September!! - Ms. Bryson
