Science is Life

Inglenook includes many field trips in it's program.  Recently, our school went to the Science centre.
One the questions about our trip was "Is the Science centre..a museum...an education gallery....a post modern mall....an entertainment hall, a nostalgia memory hall?   As we made our journey via streetcar, subway, bus our conversations about the Science centre as a thing...developed into some interesting discussions.  Once through the gates....our conversations turned into adventures, activities, learning about the Brain, reptiles, space, compression, illusions and many other things.   At the end of the day....maybe the Science centre was all of the above things.  After pizza, and a coffee...all things considered...."science is life"!

Inglenook Community School is very proud to announce that Morgan Baskin, one of our students is running for mayor of our big, wonderful city of Toronto. Morgan has been a student for one year at our school.  Last semester, in our Outreach program, Morgan volunteered to work with a Toronto councillor.  From our outreach program, Morgan had the opportunity to see the politics of the city and decided to 'fling her hat' into the ring.  Civic duty is so very important to our city and country.  We applaud, cheer Morgan for her dedication to civic life, civil society and democratic process.  Congratulations!
