I cannot adequately express what an exceptional school OLSWA is, and how blessed Canada is to have such a place! I also cannot thank God enough for leading me there...

OLSWA is located in the picturesque village of Barry's Bay, Ontario, Canada. Just south of famous Algonquin Park the Academy is nestled in the natural wonderland of the Madawaska Valley and the cultural bouquet of Catholic Kashub Polish, Irish, French and Native cultures.
A short drive from Algonquin Provincial Park, students are well placed to enjoy many outdoor activities such as hiking, canoeing, fishing, swimming, skating and skiing. Both Ottawa and Toronto are accessible within a few hours. Links:

The Madawaska Valley is a spiritual getaway for many people through out the year. Only kilometers away in Combermere you will find opportunity for spiritual direction and retreats with Madonna House Catholic Apostolate and the Companions of the Cross. The region is also home to dozens of active Catholic families and a thriving Catholic homeshool network.
