Niagara Catholic was pleased to welcome more than 41 visitors from The Netherlands to the Catholic Education Centre and schools November 5 and 6. The visit was coordinated by the Special Education team.
On November 5, our guests listened to presentations about Niagara Catholic's approach to:
- Inclusive education
- Special Education supports and accessibility
- Collaborative leadership and professional practice
- Equity, diversity, belonging, and student voice
- Faith, well-being, and student success
- Strength-based approach to students' abilities
On November 6, the visitors travelled in teams to eight schools: Our Lady of Victory, St. Alexander, St. Andrew, Canadian Martyrs, St. Denis, St. Nicholas, and St. Vincent de Paul Catholic elementary schools and Lakeshore Catholic high school, to speak to school-based staff and see the materials and equipment used in our classrooms.
Our guests were very impressed by Niagara Catholic's hospitality, and our inclusive education mindset Catholic and will share our best practices with their colleagues in The Netherlands.
Thank you to everyone who made this visit a success!
