In September 2016, Greenwood opened the doors on a visionary new campus expansion.

Our expanded and renovated building includes a generous mix of quiet work spaces and social spaces, giving students room to talk, laugh, work and learn independently and together. The expansion increased the school’s square footage by 120% while maintaining current enrolment and our close-knit community feel.

How does our expanded building enhance the student experience?

Flexible learning spaces adapt to student needs. The Learning Commons and rooftop terrace open up new social and academic possibilities, while our new Success Centre space supports students with both a teaching room and quiet work areas.

A new gymnasium doubles our capacity for indoor athletics. Retractable bleachers hold nearly 600 people. There are also new locker rooms and a Fitness Room.

Artistic endeavours flourish in the new performance theatre. Retractable seating accommodates more than 140 people and cutting-edge lighting and sound enhance every performance. Our new Arts floor also features a set and costume fabrication studio, a rehearsal space for dance and soundproof rooms for music. The digital arts centre includes a video editing suite.

State-of-the-art science labs reward discovery. These include a rooftop lab, with doors that open onto a green roof. The senior science lab allows labwork, collaborative study and individual experimentation to occur simultaneously.

The expansion increased the school’s square footage by 120%, while maintaining our current enrolment and close-knit community feel.

Greenwood’s campus extends across and beyond the Canadian canvas through our Outdoor Education program. Younger students participate in programs at camps, including Kilcoo Camp and Camp Tamakwa, and older students experience destinations further afield, from sea kayaking in British Columbia to exploring the rainforest in Costa Rica.
