October was a fun-filled month that included learning about fall and the life cycle of a pumpkin.  Our trip to the pumpkin patch and our special ‘Fall Fun’ activity day was enjoyed by all. Special thanks to all of the parents who chaperoned for our field trip and volunteered to assist with our activity centres. Highlights for our fall theme day included all the students dressing up in costumes or black and orange, face painting, pound  the pumpkin activity (hammer nails/tees into the pumpkin), pin the nose on the pumpkin, fall necklaces and painting ‘pumpkin’ people. Special thanks to Mrs. Sturm (Jayden’s mom), Mr. Janisse (Julian’s dad), Mrs. Vanderwerf (Ethan’s mom), Mrs. Dupuis (Jessica’s mom), Emily and Emilie (grade 7 students) and Mrs. Lassie (Mrs. Mathers’ mom!!) for their great help to make our activity day a great success!

Welcome to Kindergarten Mathers

Greetings from Mrs. Mathers in Kindergarten!

Welcome to Kindergarten at Tecumseh Vista Academy! I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you and your child to my class and the early years program at TVA. At TVA, our goal in kindergarten is to ensure that each child has a positive, welcoming environment filled with wonderful opportunities. Your son or daughter will enjoy the fun-filled play environment that is rich with new, hands-on experiences. Your child will be provided with the challenge of first hand investigation and the experience of a variety of centres in the classroom. On a very important note, your child will develop tools for life to become a responsible, caring and kind individual. It is my goal to provide a happy, safe and positive environment where your child develops to his/her best ability.
