Using a pioneering engagement model that is unique to the education sector, Purcell Collegiate is an opportunity for international students to live and learn in Canada.
At Purcell we are focused on sustainability, guided by the First People’s Principles of Learning, and dedicated to fostering self-awareness, personal resolve and leadership.
At Purcell Collegiate School, we believe education is most meaningful when students are actively involved in the process of discovering, questioning, and applying what they learn. Our approach moves beyond the traditional classroom, creating opportunities for students to connect their learning to the world around them, explore their own questions, and engage with their community in meaningful ways.
Campus Life is full of shared experiences with others! This includes time with activities, dorm life, meals and more!
At PCS your health and safety are our priority. Our meals are planned and prepared with consideration for all dietary needs and the promotion of good health.
We provide round-the-clock security, as well as 24hr support from our highly qualified dorm advisors who interact with you regularly and assist you where needed.
Athletics foster dedication, reward determination, and support the pursuit of skills growth and development. And in the case of team sports, they cultivate collaboration and cooperation in pursuit of shared success.
Achieving in sport, whether it be individual improvement or team victory, inspires personal purpose in support of success. And that’s what we want for our students: success in the classroom, at university, in their lives, and toward a common goal of making our world a better, more secure place.
