About Our School
At Robert E. Wilson School students come first! Our school motto “Respect and Learning Shines Through” embodies our focus on fostering student success, building healthy relationships and inspiring positive citizenship. Our staff, students and parents work together to build a caring, inclusive and productive learning community. Robert E. Wilson opened its doors in 1955. Our building is modern, with colourful and inviting classrooms, a fully equipped gym and computer lab and a beautiful backyard with two large playing fields.
R.E. Wilson and the Ottawa Inuit Children’s Centre have been involved in several joint initiatives to support our school community. This includes a kindergarten located at the Inuit Centre, where children aged four and five follow the full-day kindergarten curriculum while enjoying the cultural and family support that the Centre offers.
