Principal's Message

Welcome to Tansor Elementary School’s on-line web site

Tansor is a caring school that focuses on learning, responsibility and personal success. The rural setting helps to enhance the feelings of belonging, sharing and acceptance that is fundamental to our commitment towards our students.

Ours is a school where all students receive a carefully planned curriculum as well as many opportunities to participate in extra-curricular activities. We encourage students to exhibit a commitment to learning and to assume personal responsibility for their actions. Through modeling and regular teaching students are taught to follow our three B’s:

be responsible,
be respectful,
be safe.

The Tansor P.A.C., our parents and our staff are dedicated to creating an environment that will stimulate intellectual growth and promote physical, social and emotional development.

About Tansor Elementary School

Tansor is a K-6 school of 206 students. It is located 10 minutes from downtown Duncan in a quiet, rural setting. The large treed area provides many opportunities for our students to explore, be involved in creative play, and develop a healthy attitude of respect and caring for the environment.

The school was built in 1957 on land that was donated by a local farmer, Mr. Evans. In the 60’s and 70’s there were a number of additions with a major renovation completed in 2001.

At lunch time and at recess you can find students actively engaged in cooperative games, practices, playing on two adventure playgrounds or being creative in the wooded area.

We have a very strong fine arts and leadership component with students actively involved in our regularbi-weekly assemblies as well as many special day assemblies and musical productions.
Our partnership with the community provides many opportunities for Community agencies,
( Public Health, RCMP, Fire Dept. etc. ) to help us focus on leadership, health and safety.

Mission Statement

Tansor Elementary School believes that education is a shared community responsibility. Students and adults, together, will do their best to make our school a safe, respectful and caring place to learn and mature.
