Go to child profileWe welcome children from Christian or non-Christian families. Our teachers are professional with truthful love and highly responsible. We nurture life-long virtues of kindness, hard-working and love of eternal truth in children, and lead them to strive for academic excellence. We tailor make k-12 curriculum to fit each kid’s uniqueness so that they might be making the progress they do not experience in a “mass-production” educational setting.
Rev. Kelly is clearly passionate about the work of the school, and has gathered a staff that reflects those passions. Classes are small, and the delivery of the curriculum personal, deliberate, creative and exciting. The name of the school couldn’t be more apt: the program is about growing and learning within a shared community that reflects the Christian values of compassion, hope, peace, generosity, faithful stewardship, and striving for excellence in every area of children’s growth, including academic preparedness for successful university studies.

Dear friends/families,
In our school, we welcome children from all families, Christians or non-Christians. It is a loving place for all to belong to and flourish. We believe love is the greatest, and interest is the best teacher.
We engage our children in fun, critical thinking, creativities, and real life applications when they do every subject.
Academic wise, our teachers have professional expertise and high sense of responsibility. We make sure every child can process and master every academic concept that is required by the Ontario Curriculum. We carefully make up for the knowledge/skill they fall behind.
This is a closely knit community where your children can find source of quality love, trust, strong sense of belonging and security, as well as intimate relationships with principal, teachers and peers. Our children flourish in a loving, caring and warm environment filled with hunger and thirst for the truth.
We invest a lot of loving efforts on character formations of our children, so that they might reflect good moral characters in their academic, family, social disciplines, responsibilities and lives.
Meanwhile we actively engage our children in rich extra curriculum events in wider Christian schools’ community (ACSI) and our immediate social community context.
If you have interest to talk with us more about curriculum, school life or other questions, we are very happy to serve you.
All the best,
Principal Rev. Kelly Jia
