Who We Are

Dalhousie School is located in Fort Richmond, in the south end of Winnipeg near the University of Manitoba. Dalhousie is a dynamic school serving a diverse community.

Our students and their families come from all over the world, and that is why our school motto is "Our Differences Make Us Strong".

We are a kindergarten to grade 5 school with a cultural mosaic that enriches the experiences of staff and students. Dalhousie School offers an accepting atmosphere that positively impacts on all aspects of school life.

We are a unique school as we have an open-area concept. We have no complete walls and doors to separate our classrooms.
