Canadian Martyrs Catholic School opened in 1954 as one of the five schools affiliated with St. Alfred Church. Since then the five additions have attested to the growth of the population in what used to be known as Grantham Ward. After a five-year pursuit by principal Anthony Giblin and the school community, the final addition was built. It was officially opened and blessed by Bishop T.J. Fulton on January 9, 1989. Over the years the school has shown continuous growth and now has one portable on site.

Total enrolment as of September 2011: 489
