In the Peel District School Board, we share and embrace the belief that, “Children are competent, capable of complex thinking, curious, and rich in potential and experience. They grow up in families with diverse social, cultural, and linguistic perspectives. Every child should feel that he or she belongs, is a valuable contributor to his or her surroundings, and deserves the opportunity to succeed.” The Kindergarten Program, 2016, Page 10
The booklet gives an overview of the Kindergarten program, information about how children learn and develop, suggestions for ways to help your child transition for school and activities to help make the most of those important learning opportunities at home learn.

The Kindergarten Program
- At Tribune Drive Public School, we believe that, “Parents are the first and most powerful influence on children’s learning, development, health, and well-being. Families should feel that they belong, are valuable contributors to their children’s learning, and deserve to be engaged in a meaningful way.” The Kindergarten Program 2016, page 10
