The electronic translation service on the Toronto District School Board website is hosted by Google Translate, a third party service. The TDSB does not guarantee or warrant the reliability, accuracy or completeness of any translated information.
The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 100 languages, but does not capture all languages or dialects.
The basic translation goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material. Before you act on translated information, we encourage you to confirm any facts that are important to you or may affect any decisions you make.
The Toronto District School Board is committed to equity and community engagement, and by providing this tool, we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English.
North Bendale opened in 1960 and is located near McCowan Road and Ellesmere, in the north corner of the Bendale Community. We are a unique small community school and some of our approximately 150 students are the second generation from their family to attend North Bendale. An environment has been established that ensures that all members of the school community are treated with respect, courtesy and dignity. We want our students to enjoy success and be inspired to be lifelong learners. We have established very rewarding partnerships with Toronto Police Services, Toronto Public Health, secondary schools, and local colleges and universities.
North Bendale teachers strongly believe that teaching through inquiry provides enriched opportunities for students to gain skills that will prepare them for the needs of the 21st century. We focus on Global Competencies as a foundation for our students as they develop their thinking and their confidence in learning. The Global Competencies are: Communication; Collaboration; Critical Thinking; Creativity; Citizenship; and Character Education.
