About

St. Marguerite Bourgeoys was a French missionary who came to Ville Marie (Old Montreal) in 1653. Marguerite strongly believed in Christian education where the school and family participated in their child's education. She also believed that girls and boys should have equal education opportunities. She founded a non-cloistered community named the Congregation of Notre Dame. On October 31, 1982, Pope John Paul II proclaimed her a saint. She is the first Canadian woman to be canonized. St. Marguerite Bourgeoys School in Innisfail proudly opened its doors in September 2003. We are celebrating our tenth anniversary throughout the school year.
