” As parents of 3 children, we have many years of interacting with teachers, and in Ms. Vetere’s class it was obvious to us how her interest in nurturing children’s development, beyond the basic required subjects, has significantly influenced and inspired our son in a more holistic way. His comfort level and interest in participating in class was noticeably more involved. We look forward to the days when this style of teaching is the norm. “Tracy H & Cheryl O

” The fact that you temporarily know more or that you are bigger does not mean the child is not your equal. “Eckhart Tolle, author of A New Earth

” Ms. Vetere was my teacher many years ago and she is still my favourite teacher. I like her style of teaching the best because she teaches us extra things like meditation and yoga and how energy affects things. All my other teachers just teach the same stuff as everyone else.  There is so much more we can learn that can help us be the best we can be and Ms. Vetere understands that. “Noah HP
