Your child may have arrived home with a new plant over the past couple of days. This is a part of a focus on environmental, outdoor and experiential education. A combined effort between the school council and staff has provide every child from Kindergarten to Grade 8 with the opportunity to plant a seed in a biodegradable pot. That means that once their plant starts growing, and you know it’s going to be warm enough outside, you can put the whole pot in the soil and it will break down over time with no waste.
If you would like to share a picture or story about your growing plant, please click here (you will need to be signed in with a YRDSB GSuite account). If you don't see the Google Form (or see a message saying "You need permission", open a private browsing window and go to http://bit.ly/tvpsshare.

Parents - if you aren't sure of your child's GSuite username/password, please contact your child's teacher. Alternatively, you can contact Mr. Monahan during the school year.
