I look forward to working in partnership with you for the best interests of all the children in our school community. At Guardian Angels, we foster the HWCDSB's philosophy of “Each Belongs”. Through Care, Compassion, and empathy, each child can reach their full potential in which Jesus is our model. School, Parish and Home are an essential connection in building Catholic faith and service.

Together, we will continue to develop a welcoming environment where the love of God is seen daily through our acts of service and generosity towards others.
Our team of dedicated educators are committed to providing our students with a quality, faith-based school experience. Our staff and students bear witness to the teachings of Jesus through words and actions daily.
Together we serve.
School Mission Statement (Creed):
As a Guardian Angel, I Promise to lead like Jesus.
I am someone who will bring about peace by forgiving others.
I will take academic and spiritual risks and learn from my mistakes.
I believe in what is right and I will guide others to make the right choices.
I am someone that shows compassion by listening to understand.
I will develop winning habits through repetition, meditation and prayer.
I believe the warmth that kindness brings is reciprocal so I need to make the effort to be kind.
I promise to be an independent respectful learner by always using my God given gifts.
If I live this creed I will inspire others to be a true Guardian Angel and create an environment where each belongs.
School Vision Statement:
If I lead like Jesus, then I will always be reminded to forgive, understand, love and lead.
