Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them: for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs.” Luke 18:17
Dear Friends,
I wish to extend a warm welcome to you on behalf of the Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School community. We are blessed to have the opportunity to nurture the spiritual development and academic achievement of your children, rooted in our faith in Jesus Christ. The sense of promise that is celebrated each day at school provides many wonderful experiences for the children of our community.
Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School has proudly supported the learning needs of children for 15 years. The spirit and goodwill of our community is evident in every person and is a testament to excellence in Catholic education. The opportunity to share in the gifts and blessings of your children each day is a valued and sacred trust.
At Jeanne Sauvé, our Catholic Community of Caring works to develop our students into Catholic Stewards of Creation. Our ecological projects as well as the expectations we have and the support we provide for students to grow in caring and compassion allow our students to meet the Catholic Graduate Expectations.
Our goal at Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School is to continue to foster excellence in learning for the children entrusted to our care. We wish to thank you for the grace with which you impart your Faith in our community and welcome you as an active participant in the spirit and life of our school.
We pray that God will bless all of the parents and staff of Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School who give their time and talents so lovingly to serve children in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Sincerely,
Karyn Bruneel
Principal
Our
Wonderful Volunteers
The Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School community is blessed to be served by fantastic volunteers. We benefit each day from the gifts of many parents who contribute their time with grace to serve the needs of the students in our community.
Our volunteers serve in many capacities: Reading with Students, Career Sharing, Library Support, Class Representatives, Fundraising Events, Safe and Healthy Schools, Outdoor Recreation, Visual Arts, Drama and Athletics Coaching, and many more.
We are blessed to have the opportunity for The Rosary Apostolate at Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School. Volunteers visit the students in their classrooms once a month to pray the rosary. The volunteers distribute keepsake rosaries for each child to take home in order that the children might be encouraged to pray with their family.
Thank you to our many school volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact your child's teacher or the office at 519-273-3396.
Catholic Community of Caring Expectations
Our Catholic Community of Caring is based on Jesus' commandment "Love one another as I have loved you." John 13:34-35
At Jeanne Sauvé, we work together to develop our Catholic
Community of Caring through learning how to keep Jesus' commandment
and by being people who care.
