Summary: As Canada's national capital city, Ottawa is a vibrant community, offering diverse culture, languages, heritage, and an exceptional quality of life. The Ashbury College campus is set on 13-acres of pristine park space in the heart of Rockcliffe Park, home to many of Canada's diplomatic families.

We believe a small boarding environment of 100 students (50 boys and 50 girls) living in new state-of-the-art residences provides for the ultimate learning, living, care and safety of our boarding students.

There are three universities nearby and Canada's famous outdoor parks, rivers, and ski hills. Students like having the social vitality of the city and healthy outdoor opportunities just minutes from their residence.

The boarding program is designed to promote: friendships, academic excellence, personal responsibility, citizenship, passion, quality facilities
and leadership.
