Typical Day at Lakefield College | Boarding School Ontario

Daily Schedule

The typical weekday at Lakefield College School consists of academics, athletics, cocurricular and community activities. There is so much to learn and experience and we want to make sure that our students have the best possible schedule — one that allows them to engage in deep learning and transformative experiences. With small average class sizes of 12, students have the opportunity for meaningful daily learning with their teachers. Extra help is available with teachers, advisors and tutors during Grove Time, after school and during study time in the evenings.

Students also enjoy a full range of all-community activities with their peers such as community gatherings, house meetings, house events, paper house and spirit events during the course of their program day.
