Springbank Camp
Our Summer Camp provides SK - Grade 6 students with an opportunity to build friendships, have fun, and most importantly, to learn about God's love for them. We strive to offer paid and volunteer positions to high school students to develop Christian leadership skills, and gain experience working as part of a team.

Catholic Schools
There is something unique and special about education that views human life as an integration of body, mind, and spirit. Faith and spiritual growth are at the heart of Catholic education, which fosters the search for knowledge as a lifelong spiritual and academic quest. Through Catholic education, students learn about their Catholic faith and how to live it in all areas of life.
