Principal's Message

Welcome! My name is Mrs. Melissa Turcotte, I am the proud to be the principal of St. Thérèse Catholic Elementary School.

Choosing the right school for your child is an important decision—students spend ten formative years in elementary school, and we believe those years should be filled with joy, growth, and a strong sense of belonging. At St. Thérèse, we offer a safe, inclusive, and faith-based learning environment where all are welcomed and loved as children of God.

Our newly renovated front entranceway is just the beginning of what makes our school so special. As you walk through our doors, you’ll immediately feel the warmth and vibrancy of our school community. Student voice is at the heart of everything we do, and it shines through our leadership pillars: Healthy Heroes, Eco Warriors, Faith Ambassadors, and Spirit Squad. Our dynamic student council and active Catholic School Council ensure that students, staff, and families are engaged in creating an enriching and supportive environment.

Inspired by our namesake, St. Thérèse of Lisieux, we strive to follow her “little way” by doing small things with great love in our daily lives. We are committed to nurturing each child in mind, body, and spirit, helping them discover their unique gifts and achieve their personal best.

We believe that St. Thérèse Catholic Elementary School should be the first choice for families in our neighbourhood who value excellence in Catholic education. If you’d like to learn more about how our school can support your child’s journey, please reach out—we’d love to connect and welcome you into our school family.

We can’t wait to meet you!
