If you need to contact me during this time, the best way will be by email momentumlearningcentre@gmail.com and I will respond as soon as possible, or once I get back to the office.

Summer Hours

6/28/2013

Just to let you know, my office hours change over the summer, just like my clients' summer schedules.
The hours will vary daily throughout the summer depending on my tutoring clients and camps being held. The best way to meet is to phone or message me and we can set up an appointment! Enjoy the sunshine!

Welcome to our new look!

Now that our previous host Posterous.com is closing at the end of the week, I've officially ported everything over to www.weebly.com. I found it very easy to use and set up, in case anyone else is in the same boat as me!
Anyhow, I hope you all like this new look! I will be combing through to make sure all the links have been updated, but please let me know via comments, or email if you find anything that needs to be changed (yes, you can let me know about spelling mistakes too!)
Have a fantastic rest of your week!

We sure had fun with Fabric and Felt!

Our latest program from Creatures of Curiosity happened last Friday, on the 28th!

We created cool bags, learned new stitches, tried different glueing techniques, worked with embroidery thread (and unknotted it!!), made mini purses and the last easy-but-fun project was pompoms!!

Great fun was had by all, so here are some pictures!

We had so much fun with the mini purses and pompoms that the camera was forgotten, but the memories lasted!

New Fall Programs!

9/9/2012

Welcome everyone to the new school year! I am excited to announce our new Creatures of Curiosity programs for this fall. The first one starts on September 27th, so act fast!!

The second new program is to help those taking Math 10! As last years demand for homework-help in Math 10 was high, we now have this new 'homework club' program!

As well, for new clients, here are the Fall 2012 Tutoring Specials we are offering!

Summer Fun in the Making!

7/19/2012

After a busy June, helping students prepare for exams, we jumped straight into our Creatures of Curiosity Summer programs.

This year there are two programs running: Tuesdays Arts & Crafts, and Thursday Creative Challenges which is a mix of nature fun and creative projects!

Here are some photos from our Tuesday sessions:

Thursday sessions, I have discovered, are hard to photograph as we are so involved! Here are some snapshots of a few of the things we’ve done as part of our Thursdays!

Keep checking back, and I’ll share more of our adventures! As well, please check out our Facebook Page for more pictures and additional updates!

As well, I’d like to say a HUGE “Thank You” to my volunteer Olivia, who is getting some great job experience as well as building a great rapport with all of our little participants! Just yesterday, as she wasn’t there before they arrived, I was questioned multiple times with “Is Olivia coming?” “Are you sure she’s coming?” and “I really hope she comes, she’s lots of fun” A great way to start!

Thursdays Creative Challenges

6/20/2012

For those who aren't sure what Creative Challenges are all about, it will be a mix of discovery education as well as hands-on crafting, mixing both nature and art! Below is an example of the itinerary you will receive when you register! This is just highlighting the main activities that we will focus on. There will of course be time for snack, play and other creative endeavors!

There are only a few spots left in our July Thursday Creative Challenges sessions, so make sure you call or email today!

A big thank you to all the families that were involved in this year's Spring Break Program. We had a lot of fun!! Below are some photo collages describing the excitement!

This year we ran two groups, an AM group starting at 9AM and a PM group starting at 12PM.

Here are the photo collages from the AM and PM groups!

I thoroughly enjoyed how different each group was and the many creative ideas and conversations that were always flowing around!
