How We Meet the Diverse Needs of Our Students
At St. Boniface Catholic School, our mission is to foster a Christ-centred learning environment where students, staff, families, and parish work together to create a safe, inclusive, healthy, and welcoming community. Through regular celebrations of the Eucharist and shared faith experiences, we strengthen our connection to one another and to God.
Spiritual Development
St. Boniface is a community rooted in the Gospel, where faith is lived through learning, service, and relationships. We believe that family, school, and parish partnerships are essential to nurturing the spiritual growth of our students. Through Religious Education, Family Life, Health, and guidance programs, students are encouraged to develop self-awareness, confidence, compassion, and a deeper understanding of their faith.
Prayer and Catholic celebrations are central to school life, including Masses, liturgical celebrations, and our Rosary program led by parish members. A strong focus on anti-bullying awareness and Safe Schools practices helps ensure a caring and respectful environment for all.
Educational Excellence

Technology is integrated throughout our school, with computer resources available in classrooms and the library to help students develop digital skills, creativity, and problem-solving abilities. Our educators collaborate and share best practices to continually enhance student learning.
Community Partnerships
St. Boniface is proud of its strong connection to families and community organizations. Programs such as Best Start, After-School Recreation Care, nutrition programs, and community partnerships provide additional support for students and families.
Our school participates in initiatives that promote learning opportunities and community engagement, including the Merry-Go-Round program, which provides technology resources to students with a passion for learning. Family events such as Parenting Nights, Family Math Night, and Reading Night encourage families to participate actively in their children’s education.
Students are also provided with opportunities to grow beyond the classroom through summer camps, leadership programs, community partnerships, and initiatives that support mental health, safety, and personal development.
At St. Boniface Catholic School, we continue to work together as a faith-filled community to inspire students to learn, serve, and live out the values of Christ.
Our Patron Saint
St. Boniface, known as the Apostle of Germany, was born in England in 672 and baptized Winfrid. Educated in Benedictine monasteries, he became a priest, teacher, and scholar, writing the first Latin grammar book produced in England.
In 718, Winfrid travelled to Rome, where Pope Gregory II commissioned him to evangelize in Germany and entrusted him with reorganizing the Church in the region. Given the name Boniface, he became a bishop in 722 and went on to establish several dioceses, including Salzburg, Regensburg, Freising, and Passau. He also contributed to the growth of Christianity in areas of modern-day France.
In 754, while continuing his missionary work in Frisia, St. Boniface and his companions were martyred while preparing to celebrate Confirmation. His remains were later buried at Fulda Abbey in Germany.
St. Boniface is the patron saint of Germany, the Archdiocese of St. Boniface in Manitoba, and World Youth Day. His feast day is celebrated on June 5.
Our School History and Tradition
St. Boniface Catholic School opened its doors for the first time, as a 12-classroom school, on September 1, 1960. A gymnasium and two new classrooms were added to the original structure in 1966. A final building addition, which presently houses the school library and two kindergarten classrooms, was completed in 1968.
An increase in the student population over the years has resulted in the addition of a number of portable classrooms. Our students reflect the multicultural diversity of our city. In the 2010-2011 school year, St. Boniface celebrated its 50th anniversary.
