King's College School is a private, co-ed day school in grades three to twelve. Ours is a one of a kind, highly specialized school. The philosophy, structures, systems, and practices of our school are designed specifically to meet the talents and personalities of bright and gifted children. We are set up to meet the extreme and divergent passions and challenges displayed by these children.

Individual Attention: Z-schooling model provides layered levels of enrichment and opportunities that allow for continuous individual growth and development. Learning method: Empowered Learning because its purpose is to empower each and every child who graduates from King’s. Empowered Learning covers in great depth all the curriculum requirements of the Ministry of Education of Ontario and encourages, supports, and enables each child to customize and individualize the pace and process of his or her own learning.

The emphasis of our athletics program is on individual sports that allow students to develop skill in activities that they could enjoy into their adult life. At Haliburton, students can canoe, rock climb, and challenge their personal limits on a high ropes course. In the winter, students participate in downhill skiing and snowboarding. In spring, both horseback riding and golf are available.

Students are encouraged to participate in the Drama Club.

Arts: Students from grades three to eight have two hours of visual arts class each week, and students from grades three to ten have music classes each week. Our school band and our school choir (open to students in all grades), produce two concerts each year and participate in music festivals. Students are encouraged to participate in the Drama Club.

Enrichment and Field Trips: King’s offers numerous field trips and enrichment activities; some are subject specific and others are organized annually for the entire school. Examples of enrichment and field trips include the following: - A week-long trip each October to the Haliburton Forest Reserve with an emphasis on leadership, team building, group work, and outdoor education - Trips each autumn to the Stratford and Shaw Festivals and to the Elgin Theatre - A week-long school trip in the second half of each academic year to various curriculum related urban destinations.
