Georges Vanier Catholic School is a Canadian elementary school in the community of Beaverbrook, in Ottawa, Ontario, on 40 Varley Drive. (Next door is the W. Erskine Johnston Public School.) It has classes from junior kindergarten to grade 6. The school is in the Zone 2 (Kanata) school board district of the Ottawa-Carleton Catholic School Board. The school is named after former Canadian Governor General Georges Vanier who died in 1967, the same year the school opened.

Prior to the school's opening, the students were being housed at Our Lady Of Peace Catholic School school in nearby Bells Corners.

The student population has grown consistently, and four schools have been constructed to relieve over crowding: St Martin De Porress Catholic School, Holy Redeemer Catholic School, St James Catholic School and St Anne Catholic School.
