History & Tradition

The name Blessed Sacrament refers to the presence of Christ under the appearance of bread and wine. The Blessed Sacrament is reserved in the tabernacle of the church and is central to the faith of Catholics.

Blessed Sacrament Catholic School has been educating children in the north Toronto area for more than 65 years. In a strong academic environment, children learn the knowledge and skills needed for their future, grow to be caring and contributing members of their community, and learn to love all that is true, noble, and good.

The school was established in 1927, housed in a large house near the present buildings. The Sisters of Loretto directed the school through its early years, providing many of the teachers and the principal. Students moved into the new building in 1945. A large wing was added in 1965 which included a gymnasium and a library. The school has a high level of academic expectations, well-developed arts and music programs, and a tradition of strong sports teams. The addition of one floor will house classrooms and an expanded library. Blessed Sacrament moves into the future well prepared to continue the tradition of Catholic education.

Community Helper Day at Blessed Sacrament C.S.
On Thursday, March 12, 2009 approximately 100 Junior and Senior Kindergarten students participated in a Community Helper Day Celebration.  Mr. Melchiorre, Mrs. Andreacchi and Mrs. Grober successfully organised the involvement of nine community professionals: a dental hygienist, police officer, fire fighter, mechanic, librarian, pizza maker, podiatrist, doctor and a construction worker who shared their respective job responsibilities with the students.  Students learned about the various careers and essential tools needed within their profession.

Special thanks is extended to all parent volunteers and especially, Starbucks for donating coffee for all our community professionals.

Everyone enjoyed the fun-filled and learning experience.  Talk of the day’s event is still buzzing amongst the students and the community.  We look forward to next year’s spectacular celebration.
