Bienvenue Welcome Willkommen

At École Rio Terrace Schule we are proud to offer Kindergarten to Grade 6 French Immersion, German Bilingual and Interactions programs in a welcoming, inclusive, safe and caring environment. We believe in language learning and communication skills for everyone. We inspire students to be successful through German, French and specialized learning opportunities supported by families and the community. We are proud of our school, students, staff and community!

 

Principal's Message

Dear Parents & Guardians,

As a school that proudly promotes language education in both French and German, we recognize that learning an additional language not only opens doors to global opportunities, but also fosters deeper cultural understanding and cognitive development—skills that benefit students for life. Equally important is our shared commitment to inclusion and support for every learner. Our Interactions program plays a vital role by providing individualized supports for students with autism while creating a learning environment where all students can feel seen, respected, and empowered to succeed. At Rio Terrace, we strive to nurture a school culture that reflects compassion, diversity, and excellence in all we do by staying grounded in our core competencies:

Responsibility; Integrity; Opportunity; Courage; Assertiveness; Resilience; Empathy; and Stamina

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Ward
Principal
