Welcome Back To School!!!

On Behalf of the Toronto French Montessori School and all the staff, I would like to take the opportunity to welcome you back to school. We extend a very special welcome to the new families of our community, both at the Sheppard and Cummer locations. We hope that your first year with us will be an enjoyable and memorable one.

Thank you to all the parents who attended the curriculum night. I would like to extend a special thank you to Ms. Maggie Nagy who was kind enough to bring snacks for the evening, and to Ms. Natalie Hegarty who took the time to organize the Shop and Support program.

A heartfelt thanks goes out to all the members of the Parent Committee and for all their hard work last year and for their effort this year.

Pioneer Village Trip

I am so glad at how successful the Grade 3/4/5 Pioneer Village trip played out. The students spent the week at Pioneer Village, dressed in Pioneer clothes and experienced how life back in 1860 was. They spent their mornings learning in the old school house, and their afternoons touring the different houses and shops in the Village. Mademoiselle Rhoda, who also spent the week with the students, took many pictures. They will be displayed in the front lobby with an order form for those who will want to order pictures. I am very grateful and would like to thank you all for your patience and understanding that I have been busy teaching the Casa 2a class. If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to leave me a message and I will get back to you at my first availability. All questions and concerns or comments should be directed to me. I wish you all a wonderful start to the school year. We also wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

God Bless.

Yours in Education
