Welcome to Ladysmith Primary School

Ladysmith Primary School sits on the traditional territory of the Stz’uminus people, near the Salish Sea. We’re proud to honour this land and its history as we learn and grow together.

We’re fortunate to have a dedicated team of educators and support staff who bring skill and heart to their work every day, building a school where students feel valued and supported.

At the heart of everything we do is a love of learning. Our school-wide expectations, ROARS (Responsible, Open, Adaptable, Respectful, Safe), shape how we treat each other and guide students toward a safe, caring, inclusive environment where they can take risks and grow.

Following the Nanaimo Ladysmith Public Schools Strategic Plan, we focus on:

• Wellness – a safe, healthy, welcoming environment for students and staff
• Student success – supporting every learner academically, socially, and emotionally
• Truth and reconciliation – building strong relationships and bringing Indigenous perspectives into daily learning

Ladysmith Primary is more than a school. It’s a community where students, staff, and families learn and grow together, with ROARS at the center of who we are.
