"In a Catholic school we incorporate a religious dimension in all learning. This means that every person in the school community is valued as a person created as a child of God, who desires the full flowering of each person’s gifts &talents." GrACE youtube.com/watch?v=ssDrga…

We ended Catholic Education Week with a prayer breakfast. This event was created for our school community to come together to pray for refugees in Alberta & for those being affected by the wildfires. Continued prayers go out to our firefighters. #ibelieveinCatholicEd #ecssdpeace

Most of what children need to learn during their early childhood years cannot be taught; it's discovered through play. ~ Ruth Wilson.

Powerful messages emerge after teachers and leaders come together to plan for next steps of curriculum implementation. When we lean in and support one another, there is nothing we can’t do! #ecssdPEACE

Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count. It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child. Earlier is not better. ~ Magda Gerber #parenting

Consider, for a moment, just how much there is to learn as a tiny human. Over a period of months, infants and toddlers begin to master language, how to use their bodies to move and accomplish their goals, and so much more… including their culture’s unique social conventions.
