Inspiring Places and Innovative Learning Tools Benefiting Students Across all Branches Our community's generous philanthropic support has enabled us to create Inspiring Places for teaching, learning and play; and to invest in Innovative Learning Tools that nurture student growth and skill development. The projects we have completed are extensive and are having a positive impact on students at all branches. We have renovated the gym at La p'tite école, the main floor classrooms at the Junior School, the chemistry and physics labs at the Senior School, and have created a beautiful new outdoor area at the West Campus. We have also purchased new standing desks, noise-blocking headphones, hanging whiteboards and wobble chairs to support differentiated learning in the classroom; mobile screens and projectors to enrich our assemblies, and more basketball nets and a protective net for the Play & Sports Field to improve our athletics infrastructure. Renovations to the main floor classrooms at the Junior School include floor-to-ceiling tack boards which serve as a versatile workspace, adaptable furniture that is both environmentally and child-friendly, maximized classroom storage space, new LED lighting, flooring and doors. Designed to nurture a growth mindset and support academic ambition, these classrooms are providing flexible spaces that are easily adjusted to support both collaborative and independent learning. 10 TFS – Canada's International School
