About Us

The Catholic School of Notre Dame educates and shapes approximately 350 students from preschool to grade 9 and also operates a preschool, all within the same geographical area in Örgryte. The school has a 150-year tradition and is one of three Catholic schools in Sweden.

Our students come from all over Gothenburg through an active choice and represent about 70 nationalities and around 40 languages. The school is thus a strong environment for integration and inclusion.

Our Christian values mean that we meet each student as a whole person – body and soul – without distinction. Our mission is summarized in: Faith, Learning, Community.
