Programme Preview
Mr. Rogers said, "Play is often talked about as if it were a serious relief from learning. But for children, play is serious learning." Play-based learning is important to the cognitive and emotional development of each child. Kindergarteners will come to our site and enjoy a mix and match of experiential learning opportunities that are unique to each class.
When Benjamin Freure arrived to Canada in 1836, he said, "The country here is beautiful, a rich soil covered with timber, and well watered, and all the inhabitants the most social and good natured I ever met." Students will learn how Canada has developed throughout the history of early settlers, such as Freure, and what resources may have elicited those developments.
When reflecting on what is art, Lawren Harris said, "The truth is that works of art test the spectator much more than the spectator tests them." During this program, students will question and understand the subjectivity of art while also learning about various artistic mediums such as visual arts, drama, and/or dance.
Food literacy is essential to building a promising tomorrow for our future generations. Connect with Ontario farms to better understand how farms provide us with food and essential products.
Albert Einstein said, "If there were no more bees, there would be no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, and no more man." Learn about how healthy ecosystems are essential to the future of humanity through understanding aspects such as biodiversity, food chains, habitats, and environmental conditions.
Creativity and innovation has been, and continues to be, the foundation to improving human life. Explore how innovation has led to the creation of simple and complex machines and understand how these have contributed to advancements in technology.
