- Why Attend? All field trips are closely tied to specific curriculum outcomes, making them highly valuable learning experiences. It is very important for students to attend whenever possible!
📹 Music Extravaganza: Videos Needed!
The students did a spectacular job at the concerts, but unfortunately, we didn't capture any video footage! If you recorded a performance and are willing to share it, please email Mme Clark at amanda.clark@blackgold.ca.

When little learners need a little more - we're here! Every child grows differently. Our early intervention preschool programs provide specialized support so children can build confidence, skills, and a strong start to school.
If you've wondered about your preschooler's speech, learning, behavior, or development, a free screening can help you explore next steps.
