Borden Farm is a neighbourhood in Knoxdale-Merivale Ward in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the former city of Nepean, which was amalgamated into Ottawa in 2001. It was built on the site of the former Borden Dairy Farm. The land was bought by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) in 1959. The Borden farm community was built in 1967–1976 as a joint development of the CMHC and the Ontario Housing Corporation and features single-family homes with parks and bikeways placed behind the houses, instead of on the streets. There was more development in the 1980s and early 1990s. The rough boundaries of the neighbourhood are Merivale Road to the west, Bowhill Avenue to the north, Nepean Creek to the south and Chesteron Drive to the east. According to the 2016 Canada Census, the population for this area was 2,668.One of the housing developments found alongside the Borden Farm neighbourhood is Fisher Glen, built in the early 1980s. Other housing developments are Stewart Farm, Parkwood Hills and Carleton Heights.

The school building formerly housed J.S. Woodsworth Secondary School, which was part of the Ottawa School Board / Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, until it closed in 2003. The school was initially known as École Champlain, then from 1999 to 2002 it was called École de l'Ouest, and was finally renamed to honour Omer Deslauriers (died 1999), an Ontarian educator and public serviceman who promoted establishment of several Francophone schools in Ottawa in the 1960s.The school is part of the International Baccalaureate's World Schools; it offers both the Middle Years Program (grades 7 to 10) and Diploma Program (grades 11 and 12). Students require a minimum of 80% in order to join and/or to stay in either program. The high school also offers a construction specialization and a communications programme. Other than that, this school offers two Specialist High Skills Major, one for construction and one for information and communication technologies. In 2005–2006, the school's basketball team was the first francophone high school to win a bronze medal at the OFSAA AA Provincial Tournament. They also won the school spirit award. The school has many athletic programs, and like many Francophone schools has an improvisational comedy team.
