Open House PreK 2026 HFC
Lakeland Catholic Trustees recently met with students at Holy Family Catholic School as part of our Student Board Engagement — and one message was clear: Holy Family feels like home.

Students spoke about the faith-filled culture of their school, the strength of family groups, and teachers who take the time to support them academically and personally. They shared how prayer, service, and strong relationships help create a welcoming community where students feel supported and encouraged to succeed.

Students also expressed excitement for the future of Holy Family and the new school building, while emphasizing how important it is to preserve the traditions, identity, and sense of belonging that have shaped their school community for generations.

We are grateful to the students who shared their voices and experiences with our Board of Trustees.

Happy International Women’s Day.

Today, Lakeland Catholic honours the women in our division, our schools, and our communities who lead with faith and serve with great love — often through the small, faithful acts that shape lives in lasting ways.

“The Lord bless you, my daughter. You are known as a woman of noble character.” – Ruth 3:11

May we continue to recognize and support the women whose dedication, wisdom, and compassion strengthen our schools and support student success each day.

Christ Our Model. Children Our Focus.

International Women's Day social media post
Lakeland Catholic School Division was honoured to welcome His Excellency Bishop Gary Franken, Fr. Benji, senior leadership, administrators, and members of the Division’s System Excellence Team to Holy Family Catholic School as part of the Catholic School Review process.

Encouraged by Bishop Franken, the Catholic School Review supports our shared responsibility to ensure that Catholic schools remain strong in their mission as faith-based learning communities. Guided by the document Marks of an Excellent Catholic School, the process invites schools to reflect on how Catholic faith and identity are lived each day in classrooms, relationships, service, and learning.

During the visit, conversations with staff and students, classroom observations, and reflection on school practices help celebrate the many ways Catholic education is alive within the school community while also identifying opportunities to continue strengthening faith formation.

This review process reflects Lakeland Catholic’s ongoing commitment to forming students in mind, body, and spirit, ensuring that Christ remains at the heart of all we do.

Christ our model. Children our focus.

Subsidiarity and the Role of Government reminds us that decisions should be made by those closest to the situation, with support from larger systems when needed.

March’s Catholic Social Teaching calls us to recognize the importance of local voices, shared responsibility, and collaborative leadership. It teaches that while governments and institutions play an essential role in supporting the common good, they should not replace the wisdom, initiative, and dignity of individuals, families, and communities.

In our schools, Subsidiarity is reflected when we empower students, families, staff, and school leaders to contribute to decisions that affect them. It encourages us to work together, and supporting one another at the appropriate level. Solutions are thoughtful, responsive, and rooted in community.

Doing Small Things with Great Love — Every Day!

At Lakeland Catholic, safety and belonging are lived daily in our classrooms and hallways.

A greeting by name.
An invitation to belong.
A kind word.
Standing beside someone who feels alone.

Because every child is created in the image and likeness of God, dignity is inherent and belonging is intentional.

This is how we form hearts in Christ — by doing small things with great love, every day.
