Tennyson Eco Club
The Tennyson Eco Club is now in its third year, and is open to intermediate students (grades 4-7). In the club, students will learn about ways we can live well while maintaining a healthy planet. The Eco Club at Tennyson will provide the opportunity to learn about climate change, biodiversity and how human actions and decisions affect the planet. Club members will ultimately decide how they would like to make an impact, and throughout the year, eco-ideas are translated into eco-action.

I.D.A. Club (inclusion, diversity, and allyship)
This club is open to students of all ages and takes place Thursdays at lunch. It is sponsored by Kerri (Counselor at Tennyson) and Mr. Marc (Classroom Teacher at Tennyson) and focuses on creating a school environment that feels safe, warm, and welcome for all students in our school community. The club alternates Thursdays between learning about a specific topic, and simply providing a safe space to connect, play games or ask questions. The club often takes the lead of what student interests are and utilize discussions, books, videos and learning activities that support the notion of inclusion, on our learning days. The group also often supports school wide initiatives, such as Pink Shirt Day and Black History Month, as two examples.
