What an incredible day of teamwork, inclusion, and community! 💙🏅

The Vista Academy team had an amazing time participating in the Motionball Marathon of Sport! It was a day filled with energy, laughter, friendly competition, and meaningful connections, all in support of an incredible cause.

We’re so grateful to have been part of an event that celebrates inclusion, brings our community together, and supports Special Olympics athletes.

A huge thank you to for organizing such an inspiring event! We’re already looking forward to next year! 🙌💙

This October at Vista, we’re recognizing ADHD Awareness Month, AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) Awareness Month, Dyslexia Awareness Month, and Autism Awareness Month in Canada. 💙

🌟 ADHD can affect focus, attention, energy, and executive functioning, while also bringing unique ways of thinking, creating, and problem-solving.

🌟 AAC supports people who communicate beyond spoken words, providing meaningful ways to express thoughts, needs, feelings, ideas, and personalities.

🌟 Dyslexia can affect reading, writing, and language processing, but it does not define a person’s intelligence, creativity, abilities, or potential.

🌟 Autism is a spectrum, and every Autistic person has their own strengths, interests, communication styles, and ways of experiencing the world.

This month is about more than awareness, it’s about acceptance, understanding, inclusion, and celebrating differences. 💙

Everyone deserves to learn, communicate, express themselves, and participate in ways that work for them, without having to change who they are to belong.

At Vista, we believe every mind matters, every way of communicating matters, and every person deserves to be accepted, valued, and understood.

Because differences aren’t something to simply be aware of, they’re something to embrace and celebrate, this month and always. 💙

Happy World Teachers’ Day! 🍎✨

Today, we’re celebrating the teachers who show up every day with patience, creativity, compassion, and a whole lot of heart. 💙

Teaching is so much more than what happens in a classroom. It’s about creating a space where students feel safe to learn, supported to grow, and confident enough to be themselves.

To the teachers who celebrate the little victories, adapt when things don’t go as planned, find new ways to connect, and continue to believe in their students.....thank you. 🌟

The work you do matters, the relationships you build matter, and the difference you make lasts far beyond the school year.

Today and every day, we’re grateful for the incredible educators who make learning possible. 📚🍎💙

This National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we take time to learn, remember, and honour the children and families impacted by the residential school system, as well as the Survivors whose experiences and stories continue to shape our understanding today. 🧡

We acknowledge with respect and gratitude that we live, learn, and work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Syilx Okanagan Nation. Today is an opportunity to listen, learn, and reflect on the truths of Canada’s history and the lasting impacts of the residential school system on Indigenous Peoples and communities.

We encourage our Vista community to continue learning about Truth and Reconciliation and to consider the meaningful steps we can each take through education, awareness, listening, and action.

🎶 Friday Fun! 💃🕺

Today, AN had a blast singing and dancing along to music! 🎤 He worked on body regulation and following the beat, while getting creative and making up some of his own lyrics. 🎵✨ Even with his new words, he did a great job keeping up with the pacing and rhythm of the songs!

A fun-filled Friday of music, movement, and creativity! 🌟🎶

How fun is this! 🤩👏

C enjoyed practicing handstands with his BI the other day! Handstands are a highly preferred activity for C, and he loved having his BI join in.

This shared activity supported imitation, rapport building and social engagement while also providing C with preferred sensory input and deep pressure!

I mean, listen to those giggles 💛
