Hello and welcome to the Kendellhurst Academy web link at Our Kids! Kendellhurst Academy is set in the beautiful Credit Valley in the heart of Streetsville, Mississauga. We are a small, boutique style school with all the large school amenities such as a full indoor gymnasium with stage, huge play yards, soccer field, baseball diamond, and separate play yard spaces for our kindergarten students. Our oversized classrooms are warm, inviting and filled with sunlight - many classrooms overlooking garden spaces with mature trees. We offer an enriched academic program with a well-rounded curriculum plan. Six field trips a year complement our curriculum both in-person or virtually through our Digital Interactive Displays. We don't miss a beat at Kendellhurst with a seamless technology program. In school, we have daily French language lessons which support reading, writing and speaking en francais! Every Wednesday, our students enjoy Zumba, box fit and hip hop dance taught by specialized instructors. This is part of our regular physical education program. We have qualified teachers (OCT) carrying specialities such as French, science, dramatic arts, music, visual/fine arts, mathematics, etc. This ensures your child receives passionate and knowledgeable instruction. Our after school clubs are supervised by classroom teachers and include activities such as sports, running, Mandarin, culinary arts, Lego, STEM, etc. We are also members of the Private School Athletic Association allowing for a competitive sports program. We invite your family to visit our school in-person or through Zoom and meet some members of our administrative and teaching faculty. We look forward to providing you with a tour of our beautiful school campus!
