The school offers programming from Kindergarten to Cycle 1 (grades 1 and 2), Cycle 2 (grades 3 and 4) and Cycle 3 (grades 5 and 6).
The school has many optional lunch time activities for all students. Many are free but there are outside groups that provide activities for a fee.
All grades have visual arts as part of the curriculum. Music is taught in Kindergarten and Cycle 1 while Drama is taught in Cycles 2 and 3.
There are many special events at the school (Terry Fox Run, Recognition Assemblies, Art Fair, Staff Plays for students, Reading Week, Back to school BBQ, Family School Dances (evenings), Christmas bazaar, etc.). More information can be found on our school website throughout the year. The school has a Home and School Association that plays a very active role in the children’s activities.
The school also has an Anti-violence and Anti-bullying program developed and updated by the staff. It is reviewed and updated by the Lord Aylmer Governing Board (committee of elected parents and staff) every year.
Lord Aylmer School offers a before and after school Daycare program. This program is partly subsidized by the Quebec Government. The children have a homework period, arts and crafts and many activities including sports and technology.
