Happy Labour Day!
Our Wildcats are beginning the 2026–2027 school year with a focus on excellence, faith, well-being and connection.
The first day brought students back together with opportunities to reconnect, get organized and prepare for the year ahead, including activities through Mental Health Matters focused on practical strategies for success and taking time to pause and recharge.
Today, Fr. René celebrated Mass with students and staff, bringing our school community together in faith. The week continues Friday with a Mental Health Matters lunch for all students, creating another opportunity to connect and build community!
With this year’s themes of Getting Our Ducks in a Row and Reach for Tomorrow, our Wildcats are ready to start strong, pursue excellence and make the most of the year ahead! 🦆

Registration remains open until September 30.
September is the month we reflect on the Catholic Social Teaching principle of Human Dignity.
At Lakeland Catholic School Division, we believe every person is created in the image and likeness of God. This belief shapes how we welcome one another, build relationships, and create learning environments where every student is known, valued, and respected.
This month's Catholic Social Teaching reminds us:
Each person is sacred, made in God's image to know, love and serve Him & deserve to be respected.
As we begin a new school year, may we remember that every interaction is an opportunity to honour the dignity of others and reflect Christ's love in our words and actions.

On June 21, Lakeland Catholic School Division proudly joins communities across Canada in recognizing and celebrating National Indigenous Peoples Day.
Today, we honour and celebrate the rich cultures, histories, languages, traditions, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples. We recognize the many ways Indigenous Peoples have enriched our communities, our province, and our country.
As a Catholic school division, our faith calls us to recognize the God-given dignity of every person. We remain committed to fostering respectful relationships, learning from Indigenous perspectives, and supporting truth and reconciliation within our schools and communities.
