Aberdeen Hall Preparatory School

We have a strong relationship with our parents and partners. Providing an excellent educational experience for all of our students is Aberdeen Hall's top priority. Our specialized teachers are passionate about education and our students.  We offer a unique global curriculum that includes daily core instruction, starting in Kindergarten, with classes in French, music and physical education. Our goal is to guide our students to focus on, and master, the core skills of reading, writing and arithmetic along with developing a true appreciation of the arts, health and character education. We take pride in a community setting where we recognize and meet our students' individual needs with small class sizes and personal attention.  Every student is respected and valued at Aberdeen Hall.

In order to experience optimal growth, children have two primary needs: The feeling that they are secure and loved, and the understanding that they have the ability to achieve. When these needs are met, our students develop a sense of confidence and positive self worth that empowers their potential. Aberdeen Hall Preparatory School is a special place and I would like to welcome you to our community. We have a great deal to offer and have built the school around the following:

• Excellent Academics
• Individual Attention
• After School Clubs
• Vibrant Community

Other features of Aberdeen Hall include strong communication with parents, specialty subject–specific teachers and a unique global curriculum. Starting in Kindergarten, our students receive daily core instruction, have specialized teachers for French, music and physical education. Our goal is to focus on and master the core skills of reading, writing and arithmetic, while at the same time, develop a true appreciation of the arts, health and character education.

We take pride in a community setting where we recognize and meet the student´s individual needs. Our most valuable resource is our people, and the best means of measuring what we are about is to come for a visit, walk the halls, and to meet the students and staff. If you think that Aberdeen Hall may be a good fit for your child, I encourage you to call me personally for an interview and tour of the school.

At Aberdeen Hall we seek to admit well rounded students who choose to be at our school. We are looking for students who demonstrate leadership through academic performance, involvement in co-curricular actives and civic engagement. We care about our students and seek students who value education and are prepared to enrich our incredible school community. Applications to Aberdeen Hall are accepted year round and are increasingly competitive. We encourage families to begin the application process as early as possible.

At Aberdeen Hall we believe part of an enriched school experience involves working and living with people from diverse backgrounds—economic, social, cultural, and religious. To help us achieve this Canadian Citizens unable to pay full tuition are welcome to apply to the schools financial assistance program. Annual awards to both new and returning students are based on demonstrated need along with a number of other criteria. Returning students applying, or reapplying, for financial assistance must be in good academic and social standing. Financial Assistance applications are available through the Director of Finance and reviewed on an annual basis. Final decisions rest with the Financial Assistance Committee. Requests should only be made after a student has successfully completed the application process and an offer of acceptance has been made.

Aberdeen Hall offers limited scholarships for new applicants only, registering in Grades 6 to 12. Scholarships are awarded if a student demonstrates a highly advanced extra curricular pursuit. Examples may include national citizenship or community service recognition or competition at a provincial/national sports or arts level in addition to being a top academic achiever. Please note that qualification for financial assistance (income tested annually) is required. Scholarships are awarded for the duration of the student’s time at Aberdeen Hall. Non-financial aspects of the scholarship program including an essay, two references, and in some cases, an examination, will be required. Please note Canadian Citizenship is also a requirement.
