Thanks for coming to

Christ the King Academy

where faith, culture and excellence in academics are combined

Welcome to Christ the King Academy, where we offer a private Catholic, traditional French education in the heart of downtown Ottawa. We don't only seek to teach but to enhance the complete human-being experience of our students; educating mind, body, and spirit with an approach centered on academic achievement, spiritual growth, and personal development.



Christ the King Academy is a private school that offers a cohesive learning environment where faith and learning come together to create a vibrant learning community where the Gospel values of truth, compassion, and service are an integral part of the learning process.

Our Principal’s Message

Dear Families,

I welcome you with humility into the circle of the Christ the King Academy family. It is my honor to serve as the Principal of this fine institution, to lead this independent day school where the investment of faith and academic achievement knows no bounds on the potential of its students to grow.


We are one family of Christ the King Academy and we strive to create an environment in which every student will be able to discover his or her potential and grow in Jesus Christ. It will be the merger of two very strong curricula - one being the fully accredited Canadian and internationally focused curriculum, and the other, long and rich traditions of French Catholic education - to prepare our graduates for success in a world that needs their true identity in Christ.


We recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all path to success, and we place great emphasis on meeting the individual needs of each student. We work in close partnership with families, dedicated teachers, and professional resources—including collaborations with local children’s hospitals and professional caregivers—to give each child the tools and guidance they need to thrive.


It is my hope that during your exploration of Christ the King Academy you are going to see that we are deeply invested in the success and well being of our students. I believe that together, we can create a community where students and their families are able to live their true authenticity in Christ without limitation.


Warm regards,


Principal, Christ the King Academy

Such experiences will help them become empathetic leaders who are willing to champion change in the society.

Indispensable Beginnings of Success in the Life of a Child

Developing the Skills That Are Not Learned in Class

We do not learn only in class at Christ the King Academy. It is our co-curricular activities that are supposed to assist children to discover their talent, feel confident and know what they can offer.

Encouraging Creativity and Talent

We are proud to introduce our Talent Show this year as part of our annual events to give a glimpse of the wonderful abilities of all the students. It is a platform for singing, dancing, playing musical instruments and for anyone with any other talent to exhibit themselves before the entire school community.
