Our next Charitable Giving event is in a few weeks. Mark your calendars for Friday, March 6! We’ll celebrate Beach Day in our Casa and Elementary programs, and Jersey Day for our Junior High program. Students are invited to bring in loose change for our good friends at Children’s Health Foundation and wear their beachy best or favourite sports team’s jersey.

Westmount Toddler parent-child visits

Our Parent-Child class visits are such a special experience for everyone! The children are so excited to show off what they’ve been learning and parents love to see the children leading them through their favourite activities.
