Etobicoke's Hidden Gem
Parents choosing Olivet as their children's first foray into structured learning should know they have not just chosen a school they have chosen a community! We enrolled our 4 yr old into Olivet in Sept of 2013; we wanted a school that cared about more than marks. We wanted our son to go to a school that encouraged a love of learning and also a sense of community. As any parent may appreciate parenthood has become more complex and concerning in terms of what is best for the child. An area that we felt was not always demonstrated is moral code; one that is more in line with what is practiced at home. Olivet places a large importance on caring for your classmates and instills a sense of community in their students. The tools Olivet uses for engaging their students meets the varying needs of each child. I appreciate the manner in which the teachers teach as oppose to following a regimented curriculum developed by the public school board. I want my child to leave Olivet armed with not only good marks but also a sense of self and empathy for others. Thank you Olivet for welcoming our child and family into your community.
