[edit] 16 Jun 05
Isn't Collingwood's mascot the Warrior and not the Cavalier? I thought they changed it to the Warrior? - Luckyluke 16 Jun 05
It's definitely the Cavaliers. Alliterations are the chode. - Tylersmiler 26 May 06
[edit] Time for some cleanup
Okay, someone please explain to me why Mrs. Clarke is there, while no other Heads of departments are present. And don't give me the whole "Collingwood debates well" spiel, cause that's no reason.
Secondly, I'm just not feeling a trivia section is entirely appropriate for this article. Especially considering there's only ONE piece of Trivia.
Then again, I like having length to my school's article. So I'll put this in discussion instead of directly fixing these problems.

I say we take of Mrs. Clarke, unless someone wants to write profiles on everyone. Debate alreday has its own category. Mention her there.
And I agreee with Geoff, just remove the trivia all together. Tylersmiler 04:58, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] History of School Site
Last year I added the following details to the history section, which have subsequently been removed:
The school occupied the buildings that formerly made up Glenmore Elementary School, which was closed the previous year along with several other schools in West Vancouver. Parents, students and teachers protested the closure of Glenmore, but were unsuccessful in keeping the school open in the face of declining enrollment and a reduced education budget.
These events seem relevant to the school's history, and were reported in city newspapers (and are therefore verifiable). Does anybody have an opinion as to whether I should re-include these facts? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dbarefoot (talk • contribs) 20:54, 6 February 2007 (UTC).
- I believe they should be included. It is my understanding that because of the Glenmore closure, Collingwood arose. Luke! 22:30, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
- All rightee, I'll put it back in and see if it sticks. Dbarefoot 23:03, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Assess
I came in to look at your pages. Compared to other schools they have length. If you can find the refereences for the interesting points (eg why former heads left) then you will have a near "Article". Maybe a photo? (member of schools project) Victuallers 23:23, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
