Tecumseh Community School's mandate is to engage and support our community. We offer programs and events, from which any proceeds are channeled back into the community, either as gifts to the school, local non-profits, or to charities. 

Local Projects/Groups Supported by Tecumseh Community School

• Tecumseh Public School - The Community School supports the Public School in many areas. Our funding has provided Tecumseh with basketball hoops and benches for the playground, funding for Tecumseh's Music and Phys Ed Programs, as well as to the School Library.  The Tecumseh Home and School is receiving funding from the TCS this Spring 2011 for their Healthy Schools Initiative.  We are also supporting the Tecumseh Eco School's kick-off assembly in April 2011.
  
• Landon Library Summer Reading Program and Christmas in the Village Activities
  
• Zhaawanong Shelter
• Along with the City of London, we sponsored and funded the Mural on Farquharson Arena that beautifies the Tecumseh School grounds. 
• Tecumseh School Funfair - each year there is a free activity (bouncer or mini golf) paid for by the Community School

Community Events

Annual Family Skating Party:

The Community School hosts a free Family Skate once a year at Farquharson Arena.  Families can skate for an hour, then pop over to the Tecumseh Gym for cookies, hot chocolate and entertainment.  This year the Skating Party was held on Friday, February 4th, 2011, in partnership with the Old South Community Organization. It was great fun for all the families who attended, from all over Old South!

Multi-Cultural Friendship Dinner:

Tecumseh Community School hosted it's 3nd Annual Multi-Cultural Friendship Dinner on Friday April 30th, 2010.  ELIMINATING BARRIERS, drawing inspiration from the historic fall of the Berlin Wall, was a great success.  Our thanks to the Tecumseh Community School Community, and the German Language School London for an outstanding evening.

Check back later this year for more information on our 2011 Multicultural Friendship Dinner.
