Originally founded by the Sisters of the Good Shepherd (Les Soeurs du Bon‑Pasteur), École St‑Sacrement (ESS) is a Roman Catholic, French‑immersion elementary school (K‑7) situated near Vancouver General Hospital. It serves approximately 200 students in a historically French‑Canadian neighbourhood adjacent to Vancouver’s only francophone church, Paroisse St‑Sacrement. Parents actively participate in school events, logging around 40 hours of involvement per year.

The school focuses on educating the whole child – spiritually, emotionally, physically and intellectually.

We are a community of students, educators, families and parishioners committed to instilling a passion for learning, love of French and dedication to our Catholic faith.

• Love, kindness and compassion.
• Building close, supportive connections.
