Welcome to St. Bernadette Catholic School, where we strive to be an inclusive Catholic learning community that inspires every student to achieve their full potential through faith and education. We offer 21st century learning, academic results, faith formation and a safe, caring community that accepts and respects your child. Listening, Learning and Living in Faith are foundational processes that form the core of our Multi-Year Strategic Plan (MYSP).

Our faith
Students embrace the Catholic Church's renewed efforts to meet the spiritual needs of today's society, as witnesses to the Gospel values in their everyday lives.
Yes, Catholic schools are different. Each student in our Catholic learning community embodies excellence and equity by embracing the Ontario Catholic School Graduate Expectations (CGE's)- to be:
- A discerning believer;
- An effective communicator;
- A reflective, creative and holistic thinker;
- A self-directed, responsible lifelong learner;
- A collaborative contributor;
- A caring family member; and
- A responsible citizen.
People choose Catholic schools as an extension of their families. They want the values taught at home to be witnessed and lived at school. This is precisely what we offer in a Catholic school community. Each month we celebrate one of the CGE's by recognizing students in all classes who have demonstrated excellence for that month's focus.
Family of schools
St. Bernadette Catholic School belongs to the Archbishop Denis O'Connor Catholic High School family of schools. From time to time, our students will visit Archbishop Denis O'Connor Catholic High School for plays, presentations or to tour the school if they are transitioning to secondary school.
Our intermediate students also have opportunities to work in collaboration with secondary students on assignments such as media studies or robotics.
