Elementary Section


Unique Program
Welcome to the Canadian Elementary Section of AFNORTH International School. Staff at all year levels include American, Canadian and British teachers. We believe in providing a broad and balanced curriculum. The focus of our international curriculum is the development of basic skills in literacy, mathematics, science and social studies. In addition, we provide a variety of worthwhile creative, social and academic experiences, such as art, music, physical education, computer literacy and a choice of European languages. 

The unique program of studies is created by meeting or exceeding each of the nation’s own educational programs. School administrators and staff analyze all curricula from the following countries: the United States brings the Department of Defence Dependents Schools (DoDDS) curriculum and their American Standards; the United Kingdom brings the English National Curriculum, and Canada brings the Ontario curriculum from the Ministry of Education which, as the largest province, has had its curriculum approved by the Department of National Defence. The result: AFNORTH International Elementary School has an extremely rigorous curriculum that reflects the highest minimum requirement from all three nations!

Further, AIS provides a full range of additional programming including:

  • French First Language (Ministère de l’Éducation du Québec) for its students who are French native speakers,

  • French as a Second Language and German as a Second Language,
  • English as a Second Language and English Literacy Development,
  • Dutch Language and Culture (Host Nation),
  • Learning Support for special needs,
  • Specialists in areas such as art, physical education, music and technology.

We are proud of our program and confident that our children's education is second to none!

Elementary Principal
