My daughter loves everything about the Academy - the activities, the teachers, her friends. “
My sons have been in the care of St-Laurent Academy since 2006. The combination of an inclusive sports program with such a high level of academic teaching is unique in Ottawa. I am very fortunate to have had such wonderful staff care for my children.”
The strength of the program lies in the variety of activities that are offered - in addition to academics, the program includes swimming, skating, dance, gymnastics, martial arts, music. The children at the Academy are presented with a range of opportunities that are not offered anywhere else. The bilingual nature of the program also gives the children an advantage when integrating into immersion or French-language programs at elementary school.”
The Academy exposes children to a wide variety of experiences. The staff is also very receptive to the suggestions of parents. The fact that the Academy offers year-round programming is also a definite asset to working parents.”
SLA has many great features, the most important of which for us are the staff and the sports programming. We feel extremely fortunate that our daughter has had the opportunity to be taught by such warm, capable, and enthusiastic teachers. We also think the sports programming is exceptional. While we greatly appreciate the rigor with which SLA approaches the academic curricula, it's the exposure to the wide variety of physical activities at such as young age that makes the SLA experience unique in our minds.”
