"Founded in 1984, LDVA is an independent Catholic school in the GTA that provides exceptional education from Preschool to Grade 8. Programs include accredited Montessori and Italian Immersion Preschools, Lower Elementary Montessori, and traditional Grades 4 to 8. LDVA enables students to achieve their full potential and fosters a love of learning by promoting independence and whole-brain thinking. Core subjects follow an enriched Ontario curriculum, with specialist teachers for Music, French, and Italian."
"Our unique curriculum combines Montessori and traditional education with a Da Vincian approach to learning. From our Casa Montessori and Scuola Materna Preschools, students progress to our Lower Elementary Montessori program for Grades 1 to 3. Our Upper Elementary program begins in Grade 4 and transitions students into a traditional classroom setting where they follow an enriched curriculum up to Grade 8. Across all levels, we foster a 'Thinking Like Leonardo' approach for lifelong learning."
"To provide a well-rounded educational experience, we've made the deliberate choice to maintain smaller class sizes, ensuring personalized attention for each student. This may limit the total number of families we can serve at any given time, but we believe it enhances the quality of education and fosters a closer-knit community."

"Our school is ideal for students who thrive in an environment that values curiosity, creativity, and independent thinking. Children who are eager to explore a diverse range of subjects and engage in hands-on learning experiences will find our programs particularly rewarding. We welcome students who are open to embracing different cultural perspectives, especially those interested in learning the Italian language and culture. Additionally, students who flourish in smaller class settings, where individualized attention and nurturing relationships with teachers are prioritized, will feel at home in our community. Our educational approach supports students who are motivated to become lifelong learners and who appreciate a balanced curriculum that includes both traditional academics and innovative thinking skills."
"For families seeking a larger school environment with a wide range of extracurricular offerings, our smaller, community-focused setting may not be the best fit. Our commitment to fostering a love of learning and independent thinking is central to our philosophy and may not align with families looking for an educational system with a strong focus on standardized testing. Ultimately, we encourage families to visit and determine whether our unique educational approach aligns with their child’s needs and their own educational values."
"Families choose Leonardo Da Vinci Academy for our unique blend of Montessori education and our “Thinking Like Leonardo” approach, which fosters a holistic development in students. Our commitment to nurturing curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking sets us apart, as does our diverse curriculum that includes specialized subjects like Music, Art, French, and Italian. Parents appreciate the individualized attention their children receive in our smaller class sizes, fostering strong relationships between students and teachers. Additionally, our Italian Immersion Toddler Program is a compelling option for families interested in early language and cultural exposure. The welcoming, community-oriented atmosphere at our school further attracts families who value active participation in their child's education. Ultimately, families choose us because we offer a nurturing environment where children are encouraged to become independent thinkers and lifelong learners."
"Our school is perceived as a nurturing, inclusive environment where each child’s individuality is celebrated and respected. We are recognized for our commitment to academic excellence combined with a strong emphasis on creative and critical thinking skills. The integration of Montessori principles and the “Thinking Like Leonardo” approach has established us as a forward-thinking educational institution that values holistic development. Our dedication to fostering a love for lifelong learning and our unique programs, such as our Italian Immersion Preschool, further enhance our reputation. We are seen as a community-oriented school where parents and families are actively engaged in the educational journey. Overall, our image is that of a warm and welcoming school that provides a balanced and enriched curriculum tailored to developing confident, capable, and compassionate individuals."
"From preschool to Grade 8 teachers of the Leonardo Da Vinci Academy employ “Seven Da Vincian Principles” to help students explore and cultivate their own creativity and thinking skills. By using strategies inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci children are encouraged to develop their full potential. Along with a heightened appreciation of the world, areas of development that are promoted include: problem solving, creative thinking, self-awareness, and the balancing of mind and body."
