RHMS Grade 3 students enjoyed an incredible visit to Crawford Lake. They explored a reconstructed longhouse village and discovered the rich history, traditions, and knowledge of the First Nations peoples who lived in the region.
Through this experience, the students developed a deeper appreciation for Indigenous knowledge, traditions and the profound connection between people and the land, where caring for the environment was essential to sustaining future generations. #RHMS #richmondhill #privateschool #elementary #montessori #excursion #crawfordlake #longhousevillage #indigenouscommunity #environment #traditions #history

They also gained a deeper understanding of the essential role trees play in supporting healthy ecosystems and our urban environment.
This engaging outdoor experience encouraged students to appreciate the natural world around them and recognize the importance of protecting and caring for our urban forests. #RHMS #richmondhill #privateschool #montessori #elementary #trees #environment #ecosystems #urbanforests #science #arborist #outdoors
RHMS Grade 8 students are exploring the element of value in their Fine Arts unit, developing their artistic techniques using graphite pencils, charcoal, and blending tools. Through a series of value studies, students have practiced creating highlights, shadows, tints and tones to bring three dimensional forms to life on a flat surface. From spheres and fabric folds to shaded rock formations and still life compositions, each exercise strengthens their understanding of light, depth and contrast.
As students prepare for their final mixed-media masterpieces, they will combine black and white shading with colour values. We look forward to seeing their creativity and artistic skills shine through their work. #RHMS #richmondhill #privateschool #montessori #elementary #finearts #creativity #blending #highlights #tones #artwork #design #mixedmedia

Through this unit, the students developed literacy and research skills while exploring important character traits and learning how one person’s determination can make a lasting difference in the lives of others.
To further connect their classroom learning with real life experiences, the students participated in the run and collected donations in support of cancer research. #RHMS #richmondhill #elementary #montessori #privateschool #TerryFox #literacy #language #participation #community #spirit #charactertraits #support #cancerresearch #inspire #writing
