Principal

Hello Arborfield School Community! My name is Patrick Smoke and I have been principal of Arborfield School since 2019. I previously taught at Wagner School in Nipawin, Carrot River Elementary and in La Loche, Saskatchewan. I currently live in Nipawin with my wife, daughter and two dogs. I grew up in Ontario but made the decision with my wife to move to Saskatchewan to pursue my career as an educator. My passions include football, hockey (GO LEAFS GO!), golf and growing my own hot peppers (even if my wife does most of the work!) My goal as an educator and instructional leader is to continue the quality education Arborfield School has provided to its students while meeting the challenges of education in 21st century. Thank you Arborfield School for welcoming into your school community and look forward to our continued partnership.
