Our Campus
Our school is located in the South Granville neighbourhood, near VanDusen Botanical Garden between Hudson and Cartier Street, in Vancouver.
Our campus is composed of three buildings: Lannon Hall, Manrell Hall and the Blessed Edmund Rice Hall and Holler Family Science Centre, which represent our Elementary, Middle and Senior Schools, respectively. These buildings feature three gymnasiums, a two-story high-performance training centre, theatre, two learning commons spaces, a dining hall, wellness centre, and a beautiful chapel. The area surrounding the buildings includes an open space courtyard, two outdoor playgrounds, and a synthetic track and turf field.
In 2016, the school launched the Our Next Century Campaign. Thanks to the generous support of our community, we renewed and transformed our campus with the completion of Manrell Hall in 2018 and Lannon Hall in 2020. Our facilities foster student-centred learning and promote collaborative learning among students and faculty.
