Depuis trois cents ans, les Ursulines de ce monastère ont répandu les bienfaits d'une éducation de qualité, axée sur la diffusion des connaissances et la formation de la personne.

L'oeuvre des Ursulines de Trois-Rivières illustre l'apport significatif des communautés religieuses à la société canadienne.
