A WARM WELCOME
The first years of school can be
tough on some children, so our
curriculum nurtures as much as
it teaches. We focus on peer
group skills, making friends
and resolving conflicts. While
learning is important, so too are
children who have strong self-
esteem and the ability to express
their emotions.
LITERACY AND NUMERACY
Amidst student-led play, our youngest
students visit literacy and numeracy
centres. Through song, performance,
show-and-tell and hands-on activities,
our children are given the foundations
of language and numbers as they build
gross and fine motor skills. We know that
children learn at
a different pace,
so we customize
what each
student learns
and when they
learn it.
SEE WHAT WE'RE UP TO!
We keep in touch through Seesaw, an app that offers
easy parent communication. Not simply pictures and
videos (although we love those), Seesaw captures
moments of learning and reflects the Reggio Emilia
view that meaningful documentation provides a deep
understanding
of our students'
interests and
everyday
experiences.
IT'S SHABBAT!
Each week our little
emas and abbas
light the Shabbat
candles and sing
the blessings. Then
they eat challah.
