This year the School of Early Childhood recognized Beverly Street School as a field placement site for our students that exemplifies
excellence. Educators in this school have repeatedly been nominated by students for a Mentoring Award for their outstanding commitment
to children, families and for making their experience at Beverly Street a meaningful and enlightened opportunity to learn. The ECE program
has decided to create a new award this year to recognize centres like Beverly Street that make a true difference!
