🦉We welcomed Owl Specialist Ann and a Barred Owl Alba to our school. The children observed the unique features of owls and learned how each creature supports the balance of our ecosystem. Encounters like this nurture respect for nature and inspire gentle stewardship of the living world. We want to thank for the presentation and visit.

🌿 Through mindful breathing, gentle yoga, and peaceful reading, children cultivate self-regulation and inner harmony. Each breath, each page, each moment of stillness nurtures their capacity for peace and balance. When children face challenges in controlling their bodies and emotions, this inner discipline gently guides them through—helping them find calm within and harmony with others. ✨

We thoughtfully integrated the theme of Remembrance Day into our practical life and math activities—such as punching, sewing, and counting—inviting children to explore the meaning of the poppy flowers and reflect on the spirit of remembrance with their hands and hearts.

🇨🇦🇱🇷🇨🇳🇸🇪🇮🇹🇵🇹🇮🇳🇯🇴🇪🇸🇻🇳🇬🇧Last week, we celebrated Multicultural Day by inviting the children to explore and taste foods from around the world. Through this shared experience, we nurtured their natural curiosity, encouraged respect for different cultures, and embraced the beauty of diversity within our community.

🍁🌰Every autumn, our chestnut tree blossoms and brings joy to the children, who eagerly gather and count each chestnut. Last year, we harvested 500 — we look forward to discovering how many nature will offer us this year.

We celebrate Thanksgiving with our children by making stone soup and turkey crafts. 💜Happy Thanksgiving to all our beloved families and friends❤️

🍁Autumn has arrived, and we’ve woven the beauty of the season into our learning materials. Children are invited to explore, practice, and experience the changing weather through practical life activities.

Our children in orange shirts stand together with hope and kindness, honoring National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, learning respect, remembering history, and embracing unity for a brighter, more compassionate future.

🌱 Children are joyfully building new friendships and exploring the beautiful neighborhood.
