St. Albert Learning Centre

“We’re not just entrepreneurs; we’re change-makers!” St. Alberts Learning Center Wins 1st Prize in National MindShare Learning Schools of the Future: Student Innovation Challenge


In 2024, our winning project focused on using funds from our student-led business to create meaningful initiatives that support unhoused community members in Sudbury. The entry requirements were to address at least one UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), incorporate the use of technology, and apply the 7 Cs of 21st century learning: critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, character, citizenship, and computational thinking. This great achievement emphasizes our commitment to using education for real-world impact.

We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to showcase our students’ values, strengths, and their contributions to the Sudbury community. Watch the award-winning video here:

The Gagnon Family Honours St. Albert Learning Centre at Book Launch

St. Albert’s staff and students may remember Joey, one of the first graduates of our Cleaner Program. His dad, Pierre Gagnon, has just launched a new chapter of his own—literally! After retiring, Pierre wrote a book to share his secrets of business and life success. 

And guess who’s on the cover? It’s a joyous picture of Joey and our education staff, celebrating with confetti blasters! 

Pierre’s book launch was a heartwarming event, with several of Joey’s teachers from elementary to secondary school invited to join the celebration. 

Pierre’s generosity was on full display as he donated copies of his book, asking guests to contribute to St. Albert Learning Centre instead. 

Thanks to the Gagnon family, we received nearly $3,000 in donations! 

We are incredibly grateful to Pierre, Sue, and Joey for their support and advocacy for our students with special needs. Your kindness truly makes a difference in our community.
