Nova’s Ark began as a dream by former Special Education Facilitator and Retired Elementary school Principal, Mary-Ann Nova. Nova's Ark is a registered charity aimed to provide extraordinary experiences for people of all ages and abilities who require a unique and personalized educational setting. We are proud of our respectful, caring environment where acceptance and understanding are the keys to everyone’s positive experience. While our therapy animals provide the springboard for many up close and personal interactions, the animals are just the beginning of social skills experiences created by many Circles of Friends.
