Over the past year, we have had 3 well known Canadian authors visit our schools. We welcomed Shane Peacock, Eric Walters and Christy Jordan-Fenton.
Students learned about the writing process, where to find inspiration and how to share stories about what matters to them.
Students across our board benefit from high quality Science outreach programs such as Scientists in School, Science North and Let's Talk Science. Sessions are led by Scientists and often include hands on kits for students to construct the learning.
In 2024-2025, TNCDSB purchased 10 Lego Spike Robotics kits. Students are able to follow robot builds and use block based coding to make their robots complete tasks.
Entrepreneuship Programs are being run at some of our schools as clubs or class projects. Student projects are funded by the Ministry of Education. The funds can be used to purchase items and gain skills and trainings relevant to the business they have created. These programs offer many cross curricular opportunities in math, Science/STEM, art, and language,
