Junior students spent the day building a machine that uses a pulley and/or gear system that is supported by a strong and stable structure. Lots of problem solving, testing, retesting and creativity was demonstrated.

"A picture is worth a thousand words"

A student in grade 5 expressed how meaningful his experiences in the Adventure Class Program are and how valuable being outside learning is to him 🥰 thanks for sharing!

Supporting the whole brain child is one of the best things we can do to support our students. #studentwellness #studentmentalhealth #studentachievement

While the Ontario government struggles to provide mental health supports to students, the multi-grade and continuity of care structure of the Adventure Class Program creates a supportive learning space where students feel respected, seen, valued and heard. #studentmentalhealth

We hope everyone enjoyed their first day back after March Break. The students in the Adventure Class Program collaborate every day in multigrade groups to discover research methods & present their findings in creative ways.

This STEAM challenge was a great one! Students were challenged to build a stable bridge and were given a budget to keep track of their spending. Lots and lots of collaboration and problem solving between our multi age partners was observed. Great job everyone!

Celebrating super hero day yesterday! We are courage! Some students didn't want to be a "character" they just had fun and pretended to have super powers! I love that these students have space to express themselves 💕
