A note on catchments. Which school your child attends is set by each board and confirmed by your specific home address, never by a website. Treat the lists below as a starting point, use the official board locators further down before making any decision, and we’re glad to help you check.

Arnprior families have the Nick Smith Centre (two ice pads and a pool), the Arnprior Public Library, Robert Simpson Park on the Ottawa River, and the old-growth trails of Gillies Grove: plenty to fill evenings and weekends.
