"Making a difference, one child at a time."
Where are you from?
Hello! I am Mr. Silva and I am the Physical Education teacher at Holy Family School. I grew up and still currently live in Bellerose. I started my college education at LIU Post, and after one year I transferred and completed my bachelors degree at Queens College. I am excited to start my second year teaching with Holy Family! My favorite Saint would certainly be Saint Francis of Assisi. I attended Saint Francis Prep during my high school years and loved what Saint Francis stood for.
What can students look forward to when they join your class?
Throughout the year, you can expect your child’s knowledge of many different sports to expand! We will play various amounts of different games/sports involving teamwork and strategy in order to complete the task at hand. Physical Education is the one of the main times of the day that your child has the opportunity to let all of their energy run free in the gym! I am looking forward to teaching all of the students the different types of sports and proper way to play them.
Message to Parents
I am so excited to meet everyone at Parent Teacher Conferences and to build a working relationship throughout the school year. I am available by email, please feel free to reach out in regards to ANYTHING pertaining to your child as I check my email daily. I cannot wait for a fun filled year with everyone!
