42 TFS JUNIOR SCHOOL OUR CAMPUSES The Junior School serves as the pivotal branch that develops our students into citizens who act. Positioned geographically and educationally between La p'tite école and the Senior School, the Junior School serves as the centrepoint of TFS where a solid educational base and strong study habits are developed. It is here that co-curricular activities are greatly expanded as students are able to take on more responsibilities, leadership roles, and have the chance to participate in a diverse array of clubs and athletics. Far more than just an elementary school, students here continually broaden their academic pursuits and hone their skills. It serves as the preparation stage for the future achievements they will experience at the Senior School. Students also begin to explore the wider world, with overnight trips beginning in Grade 3. Events like Spirit Week and the Grade 5 Expo elevate the student experience.
