Working at summer camp has been incredibly rewarding.

Each day, we create a safe, engaging environment where campers build confidence, try new activities, and form strong friendships. With a supportive team and a strong sense of community, the camp fosters fun, personal growth, and inclusivity for everyone involved.

I like learning French because French is Canada's national language

If I want to go around Canada I need to know French because in some places like Quebec they only speak French there. French will also help me in the future for a job because if you know French you can get more different jobs.

Grade 7 Student

French is an important language to learn in Canada because it is one of Canada’s official languages.

It is spoken all over Quebec and other francophone communities. Learning French also opens up opportunities for employment in jobs such as in the federal government.

Grade 7 Student

I attended RMS for almost 10 years as a student

I had one of the best educational experiences I could have ever asked for. In addition to having an amazing sense of community, Rowntree prepared me academically to succeed in high school and beyond.

Joined here in grade 5 and graduated in grade 8.

Didn’t regret a single moment going there. Getting the marks helped me get into the AP program in Campion. Keep up the good work!

I had a wonderful time at summer camp.

My teacher, Mr. Palone, was very kind and fun. I loved making creative things like heart and star-shaped bubble sticks. We also went on exciting field trips, and my favourite was Chinguacousy Park, especially the water park. I had an amazing time and made lots of great memories!
