At Our Lady of Wisdom Catholic School, we pride ourselves on the strong partnership that exists among the home, the school and the parish.

Our major focus in the school is to provide the students with a learning environment where Gospel values and Catholic doctrine permeate the curriculum. The religious education and family life programs form the foundation for growth. A variety of activities planned in conjunction with the parish provide students with opportunities to practice their faith.

As has been indicated by numerous parents, a safe and welcoming environment is critical to the success of the school. Our safe arrival program assists us in making sure all students are accounted for. Parents are asked to call the school to inform us of their child's absence. Students may not leave the school grounds during school hours without a signed note by a parent or a guardian.

To ensure the safety of the students in the school, guidelines for behaviour written in the Parent-Student Handbook establish clearly what is expected from everyone in the school.

We have a strong link with Annunciation Parish. Parish priests pay regular visits to the school to help the children grow in Faith. The Religious Education and Fully Alive Programs are taught at all levels. Students are prepared for the sacraments of Holy Eucharist, Reconciliation, and Confirmation.

True wisdom is gained through years of experience and remembering. Mary, as Jesus' mother, showed this quality by cherishing and reflecting on the events of her Son's life. For this, we call her the Seat of Wisdom and for this, we are proud to have our school named for Our Lady of Wisdom.

Founded as the first school in Annunciation Parish in 1959, the school offered programs to both French-speaking and English-speaking students. The French instructional unit was discontinued when Ste-Madeleine was opened. As the years passed and the number of school aged children living in the area decreased, the school declined in numbers.

In 1987, it was felt that Our Lady of Wisdom would be an ideal location for instruction of French Immersion. The program started in Senior Kindergarten. The French Immersion program is thriving and continuing to grow each year.

A strong community spirit has been built up over the years. We continue to enjoy strong links with Annunciation Parish and with the parents who bring their children to our school from a number of communities.

We are a well established French Immersion school promoting the French language and culture through ongoing curriculum initiatives. Our children come to appreciate the diversity of our country through instruction in our two official languages. The sound foundation in French and the emphasis on solid academic achievement provided at Our Lady of Wisdom throughout the elementary years assists students in planning future directions.
