Bala Avenue Community School

"Children . . . Our Future; Diversity . . .Our Strength".


Bala Avenue Community School, built in 1913, is located in the old community of Weston, near the southeast corner of Jane Street and Weston Road. The school currently serves 155 students (Kindergarten to Grade 5), representing approximately 20 different languages. 

The Boys and Girls Club of Weston Mount Dennis offers an after school program to our students, ages 4-12 years old.

Our school offers the International Languages Elementary Program on Saturdays from 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM. This program provides students with the opportunity to learn languages beyond English and French, while also exploring and appreciating diverse traditions, customs, and cultures.

Currently, we offer Cantonese, Italian, Mandarin Simplified, Spanish, Tigrinya and Vietnamese. Additional languages can be added to the program if there is a minimum enrollment of 25 students.
