Embedded Files
Our school respectfully acknowledges that we are located on the ancestral, traditional and unceded Indigenous territory of the Algonquin Peoples,
on whose territory we pray, learn, play and work.
The OCSB acknowledges the suffering experienced by Indigenous peoples in Canada's Residential Schools and is committed to Truth and Reconciliation. Read the OCSB Response to the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action to learn more.

Both (Before and After programs).
The program may also operate on select PD Days and March Break, if there is sufficient enrollment, available space, and staffing. For complete details on eligibility, fees, and how to register, please visit the Child Care and Extended Day Programs page on the OCSB website.
Spiritual Theme
The OCSB's spiritual theme for 2024-2027 is: We are called to open doors, build bridges, and nourish new beginnings. It is rooted in Revelation 3:20, “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock…”
In each of the three school years, our school will focus on a different aspect of the Spiritual Theme: Opening doors, Building bridges, and Nourishing new beginnings.
Environmental Stewardship
At St. Elizabeth we encourage litterless lunches and have ongoing recycling of paper products, cans, and glass. We are committed to promoting a responsible, caring attitude toward the future of our planet. In addition, at St. Elizabeth we teach the children the importance of maintaining a clean and tidy school environment.
