Specialty Areas

John Grant High School

Sensory Space

Our sensory space is a safe and tranquil area for our students to work, relax, recalibrate or take some time away from the classroom time when necessary.

Chill and Chat Lounge

 Located on the third floor, the Chill and Chat lounge is the perfect place to hang out with friends.  

With comfy seating and a foosball table, this sunny space next to our greenhouse makes a great spot for our senior students to relax during lunch or recess. 

During class time this space can be used for small group work or one-to-one tutoring.  

Fitness Center

John Grant has a fitness center with weight training equipment, stationary bicycles, treadmills and a boxing area. 

The area is open to all students during lunchtime or before school as part of our extracurricular activites. 

 

Auditorium

Our brand new, state of the art auditorium is the perfect venue for assemblies, productions, social events and school governance events is undergoing a complete renovation. 

Work will be completed this summer and we look forward to holding many events starting in September. 

School Beehive

What have you eaten today? Chances are at least part of what was on your plate exists thanks to bees – and we’re not just talking honey. Pollinators are responsible for about a third of all the food humans consume. 

Urban beekeeping encourages people to think about planting pollinator-friendly plants and flowers and expand their view of the environment, taking into account all the tiny creatures with whom we share our world. The docile Italian bees that we use at Alvéole are excellent ambassadors. 

Located on the roof of our building, our hive is managed and cared for by the team at Alvéole. 

Students benefit from hands-on workshops with our beekeepers and our school sells our unique brand of honey.
