Sherwood Education
The Sherwood Community Association was established in 2008 by a group of volunteer residents to create community led events around the year. Residents can sign up for a $25/year membership aimed at raising funds for such events. The most popular event in the community is the annual summer Multicultural Festival. They have introduced a new community garden set to open in 2017.
In 2016, Sherwood agreed with the Calgary Catholic School District to open a school in the community named Blessed Marie-Rose after the late Marie Rose Durocher. The manufacture of the school started on May 6 2016 at approximately 2:00PM. The school was first opened on September 4 2018.
