There’s no better way to understand the energy, community and spirit of The Bishop Strachan School (BSS) than to experience it yourself. As Canada’s leading all-girls independent day and boarding school in Toronto, BSS welcomes families from JK to Grade 12 to explore our campus, meet our students and faculty, and see powerful learning in action.
Whether you’re joining us from across the city, across Canada or around the world, we offer many ways for your family to connect with BSS.
Starting in September, we will offer various in-person and online events to help you learn more about BSS. Below, you will find brief descriptions to help you choose which events suit your family. Registration links will be available soon. Once you apply to BSS, you will be able to book your child’s interview and a private tour with one of our Student Ambassadors.
If you have any questions or would like to inquire about a campus tour, don't hesitate to contact us at enrolment@bss.on.ca. We look forward to meeting you!
