Families with young children participated in an engaging Early Learning for Families event at one of our elementary schools. Designed for children aged 0-5, the afternoon offered fun, hands-on learning experiences while helping families build connections with schools and the community.
Among the highlights was an energetic performance by JUNO-nominated musician Will’s Jams alongside the kindergarten and Grade 1 students. Together, they co-wrote an original song, Family Tree, and rehearsed it ahead of the big performance. Seeing their ideas come to life in music made for a memorable and rewarding moment.
The gathering also welcomed key community partners from across Richmond, offering families valuable resources and supports. By strengthening connections between schools and the broader community, this initiative helped ensure families have the tools for a strong start in education.
