The staff of West Dalhousie School extends a warm welcome to all students and parents. It is our goal to work with parents to provide the best educational experiences for our children. In partnership with parents we can share ideas, build respectful relationships, and work together to establish a firm educational foundation for children.
Today's children are society's future. As we move into our collective future we will need citizens who are knowledgeable about their own and their collective potential. The ability to deal with technological change, to represent understanding in a variety of ways and to communicate with others will be essential.
Our Vision
We provide rich learning opportunities through a generative, inquiry-based approach to curriculum. Our learners take ownership by discovering and developing their potential, passions and gifts. As life-long learners and deep, critical thinkers, they are able to make significant contributions within a complex and changing world.
Our Motto
Together We Make a Difference.
