Kelly Haldane
English & Social Studies
Hello! I am Kelly Haldane and I am very excited to be teaching at Ecole McTavish! I have been here in Fort McMurray since 2014 (so much for that five year plan)! As an army brat I have lived across Canada with my parents and younger brother. After completing my high school education in Pembroke, Ontario I attended Nipissing University in North Bay where I earned my Bachelor of Arts honours degree with a double major in English and history, followed by a Bachelor of Education. After I completed my degree I travelled to Kenya and then Southampton, England to teach. I have also taught in an Inuit village in Northern Quebec, a private school in Mississauga, Ontario and an alternative school in Edmonton before I began my career at FMPSD. When I’m not teaching I can be found spending time with my son and my partner. We love to get outdoors hiking, snowboarding and running the Birchwood Trails. I also enjoy reading, travelling and learning new things! I look forward to being a part of your journey as you grow and learn at McTavish!
