Principal's Message
Welcome to Belvedere School!
At Belvedere, we are confident and resilient learners. We are all leaders who work collaboratively to build strong communities filled with HOPE. We work towards this vision by teaching, modelling, and practicing the attributes of HOPE - Helping Others, taking Ownership, Persevering and showing Empathy - in all of the work we do.
At Belvedere, we take collective responsibility for all of our students. We cultivate learning environments that celebrate the strengths of individual students and ensure that students receive the supports they need to be successful. We have high expectations for our students with both academic and social skills. At the core of all of our work are strong relationships between staff, students, families, and the community.
At Belvedere, we program for students from kindergarten to grade 6 in an inclusive setting. Our kindergarten students attend full days to help ensure that they are prepared for successful learning in grade 1. We support all of our students through systems of intervention for students when they require additional time and support with their learning. We also work with our community partners to connect students and families with supports outside of school. Our parent community supports students through fundraising to provide additional opportunities for students outside of the classroom and to ensure students have access to additional resources.
We look forward to working together to ensure that your child’s school experience is positive and rewarding. Together we belong at Belvedere.
Sincerely,
Wanda Cummins
Principal, Belvedere School
