Inspiring young minds
The Sunflower School is committed to the provision of quality education and care of eighteen months to 10 year olds. We believe that children learn best when they are given the opportunity to explore and interact with an environment in a constructive way at their own pace. Consequently our programs are designed to provide the maximum opportunity to experience a variety of materials, ideas and social situations at a level appropriate to the individual child.

Land Acknowledgement
Aanii. The Sunflower School acknowledges that the land upon which we operate today is Treaty 19 territory, which is the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe, including the Ojibway, Potawatomie and Chippewa, and the people of the Three Fires Confederacy. We are aware that our settler acknowledgment uses language which may differ from languages used by First Nations Peoples. We understand that language is fluid and living, and we respect this diversity. In recognition of this, we are committed to building important relationships with First Nations Peoples in order to enhance our knowledge of the many languages and histories within Ontario. We are compelled to embrace the valuable contributions of Indigenous Peoples in our work with children and families. We acknowledge the “Dish with One Spoon” treaty with respect to ecological and environmental sustainability: the “dish” representing the land that is to be shared peacefully and the “spoon” representing the individuals living on and using the resources of the land in a spirit of mutual cooperation. We wish to express gratitude to Mother Earth and for the resources we are using, and honor all the First Nations Peoples who have been living on the land since time immemorial. Miigwech!
Anishinaabemowin Language:
Aanii = “Hello/Hi” (casual)
Miigwech = “Thank you”
