At Eric Harvie School, ( k-4) our vision is to establish and sustain a learning environment that fosters creativity and innovation in a peaceful community of connected, independent thinkers, problem solvers and learners. We believe students need a well-developed ‘Learner’s Toolkit’ of skills and strategies to support children in wondering, investigating, problem solving, posing questions, representing thinking and helping others, as they ‘live their learning’ through ‘Wonders’ and curiosities, rather than just acquiring knowledge, to make sense of their world. Eric Harvie School is focused on building a strong sense of community with families, students and all staff. Learning is approached from the perspective of integrative, co-created learning and connectivity through collaboration. Learning is explored primarily through the lenses of Peace Education, Place-based Learning (Environmental Education) and Design Thinking principles to promote innovative thinking and learning.
