Wishing everyone a safe and restful summer!

A huge thank you to Kamwin Electric for their generous support of our Honor the Work initiative at Derek Taylor Public School!

Because of community partners like Kamwin, our students have had the opportunity to explore careers, trades, and real-world skills through hands-on learning experiences that connect directly to future pathways. The Honor the Work bins have become a valuable resource in our classrooms, helping students discover interests, build confidence, and gain a deeper appreciation for the skilled trades and the many careers that help our communities thrive.

We are incredibly grateful for your investment in our students and for helping us create meaningful learning opportunities that inspire curiosity, problem-solving, and career exploration.

Thank you for helping us Honor the Work!

The grade 3's had so much fun at the new Keyera Place.
