Core values

The program includes curriculum characteristics that apply to all grade levels.

Mathematics will offer opportunities to use concrete experiences for measurement, large number awareness, problem solving, variables and data analyses (collection).

The health component of the program will focus on safety and responsibility in communities and sport. Attention will also be given to life roles and career development, goal setting and volunteerism.

Physical education portions of the program include the daily walking and moving that fuel a healthy lifestyle.

In language arts, students write journals and record information. The process allows time to experience feelings, predictions and ideas. There are opportunities to work in pairs or groups while interviewing, organizing, listening and reading a wide variety of information.

In the art component of the program, students record surroundings and details, while also examining logos and symbols in terms of their function and aesthetics.

Key themes include teamwork, technology, heroes, builders and Hockey Night in Canada.
