What this school is best known for

The only public elementary school inside the Village of Anmore — a small, tight-knit community school that serves Anmore Village, Belcarra families, and the surrounding forested east-side residential pockets.

Anmore Elementary anchors the village. It is the only public school inside the municipal boundary of Anmore and serves Belcarra families as well. The small enrolment supports tight cohorts, well-known teachers, and a hands-on, community-school culture — but it also means transportation is the parents' job. SD43 has discontinued bus service district-wide, so families plan around driving.

Programs & academic profile

What Anmore Elementary actually offers.

Core K–5 English program

Standard BC elementary curriculum delivered at a village-school scale. Small cohorts and well-known teachers are the norm.

Learning support and inclusion

Standard SD43 inclusive-education model — resource teachers, learning support, and counselling, scaled to the school's small size.

English Language Learning (ELL) support

Standard SD43 ELL programming is available.

Indigenous Education Support

District-wide, under SD43's Aboriginal Enhancement Agreement. Indigenous Support Teachers and Child & Youth Care Workers, scholarships, land-based learning, and the All Nations Canoe Event, serving grades K–12 across SD43.

SD43 International Student Program

District-wide, grades K–12. Full-year (10-month) and summer options, with ESL and Culture Programming and a Teacher Training Program; qualifying secondary students can access AP and IB coursework.

Transportation note

SD43 has discontinued bus transportation district-wide. Anmore parents are responsible for getting their child to and from school. Many families coordinate carpools through the Anmore Elementary parent community.

Catchment, feeders & cross-catchment

Where Anmore Elementary students come from — and where they go next.

Catchment area

The Village of Anmore, Belcarra, and the forested east-side residential pockets — Barber Street, north-shore Anmore streets, and the streets that climb toward Buntzen Lake. Catchment lines are tight; verify any specific address through the SD43 locator.

Feeds in from

Anmore is a K-entry-point school. There is no prior level feeder.

Promotes to

Students typically promote to Eagle Mountain Middle (grades 6–8) in Anmore, then on to Heritage Woods Secondary (grades 9–12) in Port Moody.

Cross-catchment

SD43 allows cross-catchment enrolment when space permits, allocated by lottery with in-district and sibling priority. SD43 cross-catchment policy →

Catchment lines run down individual streets and can put one side of a road in one catchment and the opposite side in the next. Always verify a specific address with the SD43 school locator before relying on any boundary statement.

Inside the catchment · housing read

Buying inside the Anmore Elementary catchment — what I tell clients.

Anmore housing is unlike anywhere else in the Tri-Cities. The village is known for one-acre estate lots, older split-levels on quiet residential streets, and a small number of high-end custom builds. Inside the Anmore Elementary catchment, every home is in Anmore proper — the school IS the village. Families buying for the catchment typically aren't pricing the school against alternatives; they're buying the Anmore lifestyle and the school comes with it.

  1. Anmore real estate is dominated by larger lots and detached homes. There's no condo stock in the catchment proper. Budget accordingly.
  2. Transportation matters more here than at any other SD43 catchment. SD43 has discontinued busing, and Anmore is not on a transit corridor — every school day requires a car or coordinated carpool.
  3. The Anmore → Eagle Mountain Middle → Heritage Woods Secondary pipeline is one of the cleanest in SD43. Families inside the Anmore catchment can plan an entire K–12 path without re-shopping schools.
  4. Verify catchment with SD43 for any Belcarra address — some Belcarra streets attend Anmore, others go to Port Moody schools. The SD43 school locator is the only reliable check.

“We had a fantastic experience working with Craig on the purchase of our first home in Coquitlam. He was incredibly friendly and responsive, always quick to answer our messages and questions. Throughout the process, he took the time to walk us through each step so my partner and I always knew exactly what was going on and what to expect next. Craig also gave us honest, helpful opinions on properties we were considering, which really helped guide us toward a place we love. On top of that, he connected us with a great broker and lawyer, making the whole process feel seamless. We're so happy in our new home and couldn't have done it without him. Highly recommend Craig to anyone buying a home!”

Most families researching this catchment are planning a move up.

If you're weighing a move into this catchment, the hard part usually isn't the school — it's the timing and the tax math: when to sell your current home, how the property-transfer-tax works on the next one, and how to buy into the right catchment without overpaying. That's the work I focus on across the Tri-Cities. Start with the move-up guide, then get a no-obligation read on what your current home could sell for today.
