Lakeland Catholic Schools are extraordinary places!

Below are photo galleries featuring just some of the amazing things happening in our schools!

Teachers and principals from all schools gathered for Mass and a Sharing the Faith celebration honouring Year 1 and Year 2 teachers who are growing in their vocation and embracing what it means to be Catholic educators.

From praying before games and exams to leading music ministry and creating space for spiritual reflection, these teachers are living the mission of Catholic education each day. Their work is already making a meaningful difference—helping students feel seen, supported, and connected to their faith in ways that last a lifetime.

Their commitment to forming the whole child, mind, body, and spirit - through Gospel witness and intentional Catholic teaching - exemplifies faith in action.

This week, students across several Lakeland Catholic schools were blessed by an uplifting message from Catholic speaker and musician Chris Bray. His words resonated deeply as he encouraged the youth to embrace the truth: “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” Chris focused on grounding our lives in faith and a relationship with God. He shared personal stories, reminding students that it is through prayer and keeping our focus on Christ that we navigate life’s challenges. He also reflected on the story of the woman at the well, illustrating that Jesus is our living water, offering strength and sustenance through faith.

The entire gymnasium was filled with singing and smiles as Chris led students in songs, making it a joyful and memorable experience for all.

Biology 20 students at Assumption Jr/Sr High School took their learning outdoors with an exciting field study led by the Lakeland Industry and Community Association (LICA). Through LICA's X-Stream Science program, students got hands-on experience in environmental science by testing water quality and searching for bioindicators in a local stream. From chilly fun to valuable science skills, our students excelled at investigating the health of our environment! We’re proud to offer such unique, real-world learning opportunities that inspire excellence in every student.

Step into the new school year with us through these vibrant snapshots from our recent Open House event! We were delighted to welcome our wonderful families and students to our schools, marking a fantastic start to the year ahead.
