We love our tight-knit, family atmosphere! Souvenir prides itself on knowing every student by name and fostering a warm, home-away-from-home environment.
We balance bilingualism with a true 50/50 English and French immersion experience- starting in Pre-Kindergarten!
We are rich with multiculturalism! Souvenir celebrates the diverse backgrounds of our families and prepare our students for a globalized world.
Mission Statement
Souvenir Elementary School is a public educational institution whose mission is to provide an engaging, collaborative and equitable learning environment, where students’ well-being and potential are at the forefront.
Vision Statement
At Souvenir Elementary School, we believe that all students can be empowered to embrace learning in a diverse and respectful environment where the development, expansion, demonstration, and articulation of knowledge are prioritized. Students can achieve their personal best and learn to take ownership of their emotional, social and physical well-being through the acquisition of important life-long skills.
Our historical legacy
Did you know? Our building was originally founded as a high school for the St-Martin School Board in 1963!
For over 60 years, Souvenir has been a cornerstone of the Chomedey community. While we have grown and adapted to modern educational needs, our core tradition remains the same: providing a meaningful, challenging, and deeply caring environment where every student belongs.
Parent Participation
Our Souvenir parents are an invaluable part of the team! They organize events, improve facilities, fundraise tirelessly- and lots more. We welcome and encourage parents to volunteer and participate in our school community for the benefit of all students. Please see information in our Governing Board and Home & School tabs for more information.
