Boarding

An urban boarding experience that prepares students for life.

Boarding students at St. George’s learn and grow in an immersive living and learning environment. Students join a welcoming community of 110 boarders from more than 20 countries as they pursue their academic interests and explore a wide array of athletic, cultural, and outdoor learning activities. Here, students discover who they are — and who they can become. They develop lifelong friendships and grow into fine young men, ready to contribute to their communities and make a positive impact in the world.

Growing Minds. Building Character.

As boarders at St. George’s, students join a living and learning community tailored to the development of the whole self — their intellectual, physical, ethical, and social development. Everything that happens here is grounded in our values: Empathy, Humility, Integrity, Resilience, Respect, and Responsibility. The result? Young men with self-awareness, compassion, confidence, and connection to a community that will endure well beyond their time in Harker Hall.

Ready for University...and Beyond

In our dynamic and challenging academic programs, students are encouraged and supported as they explore their unique interests and pursue their academic goals. Our expert educators act as mentors and guides, helping students prepare for university and develop the readiness and character of successful young adults. Boarders also grow their independence and learn important life skills, forming a strong foundation for the transition to post-secondary and beyond.

A Vibrant City with Spectacular Natural Surroundings

Conveniently located on Canada’s west coast, Vancouver is surrounded by a spectacular natural environment and is among Canada’s safest and most multicultural cities. Boarding students choose from a wide array of opportunities throughout the year for weekend sports, outdoor, and cultural activities — opportunities that include snowboarding, concerts, surfing, and hiking trips.

Safe and Cared For

We know it can be a big step for students to leave home and live in a new city. Our caring, live-in staff team form close bonds with boarders so they feel safe and encouraged as they learn new skills and grow their independence. From House Parents to counsellors and peer mentors, our Community of Care is here to support each student’s well-being.
