About us

Curiosity. Character. Community.

Northbridge Academy is a co-educational private school founded in 1962 for pupils from kindergarten to Secondary 5. We combine a programme aligned with the Québec Education Program with an exceptional offer in sport, music, the arts and outdoor education. Our all-through model gives pupils a seamless path from kindergarten to the Secondary School Diploma.

A message from the Principal

Welcome to Northbridge. Since 1962 we have educated the children of this region with a simple conviction: that young people flourish when they are known well, expected to work hard, and given real responsibility.

Our all-through structure means that a child joining us in kindergarten can stay with us until the Secondary School Diploma. Along the way they will be taught by specialists in every subject, perform on stage, represent the school in sport, lead younger pupils, and discover what they love.

We would be delighted to show you around.
