Cyril Varney Public School

here is a large playground for the primary children with a play structure and sandbox. Our School Council has planted shade trees to beautify the schoolyard. The junior playground has a soccer field and a basketball court that are both well used by students. The perennial gardens at the front of the school were accomplished in partnership with Home Depot, New Sudbury Canadian Tire, Adam & Eve Garden Centre, Ashley’s Landscape Supplies and Rainbow Concrete Industries Ltd. Cyril Varney Public School operates on a ‘Balanced Day’ timetable. During our nutritional breaks, students are able to participate in clubs and intramurals that interest them. Our school is committed to offering a strong academic program with a focus on the core areas of literacy and numeracy. We have developed an exemplary school bookroom with the most up-to-date resources for teaching literacy to students from all grades. At Cyril Varney Public School we are committed to building moral intelligence by education the heart and the mind. Our character development focus is directed by a staff committee.
