A Message from our ELCC Supervisor
At Banting and Best, we believe children learn through play. In our daily programming, we offer each child the opportunity to develop and expand their knowledge by engaging in the iSTEAM activities planned around their interests. Our program is a multi-aged group, from kindergarten to grade 6. We encourage children to learn and explore at their own developmental pace, take leadership, and foster positive social skills such as sharing and cooperation. 21st-century technology is a part of our curriculum, providing laptops and tablets for the children to explore Minecraft and setting challenges to reflect their interests using Scratch, Makey Makey, and Ozobot.

Kelly
My name is Kelly and I have a level two certificate and a degree in Kinesiology from the University of Lethbridge. I was born and raised in Calgary. When I'm not at Banting and Best school you will probably find me playing or watching sports. I have played soccer for 16 years and still love to kick a ball around. I am a Calgary Flames fan and a diehard Saskatchewan Roughriders fan!! I also really love spending time with my family and friends. I am really excited to be a part of Coded Minds and to work with the amazing staff and children we have in our program!
