West Gate students enjoy a visit from Batman as they dress up in support of Adam Zaidan, our own personal Super Hero. Students brought in a loonie to support the Julien Gaudet House that helps parents and siblings experiencing grief in our area.@gecdsbpro @learningstance
It’s the perfect day to explore the forest! @WestgateWolves @MrsLauraMerlo

It is an amazing feeling when you can look into a child’s eyes and actually feel the wonder and excitement that they are feeling in that very moment. It’s so nice to be able to step back and enjoy these little (but actually big) moments through their lens. @WestgateWolves
When you allow children to take acceptable risks they build resilience and become aware of the capabilities and limits of their own bodies. @WestgateWolves
So many questions when the students arrived to find tadpoles in our classroom today. What are they? How did they get here? Do they have eyes? How many are in there?
Starting off our Read-A-Thon with some early morning reading and some snuggles with our stuffies! @WestgateWolves
💙💚 LOVE this!
Happy #EarthDay from the Natural Curiosity team! Today and every day, we wish you time spent in Mother Earth, with love and respect for all our relations. 🐢🌳
“I know why the worms came out...the rain! Quick, we have to save them or the birds will eat them!” @WestgateWolves #outdoorlearning #savetheworms
This morning we decided to save ALL of the worms on the sidewalks. #nowormleftbehind @WestgateWolves
