Queen Margaret’s School Duncan Preschool Grade 12 www.qms.bc.ca For 100 years Queen Margaret’s School (QMS) has offered an exceptional and rigorous education that builds confidence, character and compassion. Boys and girls develop and grow through signature programs that focus on experiential and inquiry-based learning, entrepreneurial thinking and equine-facilitated leadership development. The School’s values of justice, curiosity, integrity, connection and courage anchor students in becoming trailblazers of tomorrow. Opportunities abound for students to engage in programming and extracurricular activities that foster
wonder and excitement for learning, inspiring a passion to look deeper. Whether in the classroom or in the equestrian ring, we create new generations of confident leaders empowered to create a more just and connected world. Nestled on 27 beautiful acres in the heart of the Cowichan Valley, QMS is proud to provide a diverse range of programs for young people to explore. This September, QMS is excited to launch a new Prep Program for international students, a refreshed Equestrian Marquee Program, and the Grade 8–9 Project-Based Learning Program. Each program will be unique to the Cowichan Valley! The Equestrian Learning Centre at QMS will continue rolling out enriched equine facilitated leadership and wellness programs for students as we integrate all aspects
of learning with our academic and cocurricular offerings. QMS’ all gender day and boarding student population is an integrated, diverse, inclusive community where each student is recognized and our deep community connections are celebrated through service, entrepreneurship, the fine arts, social justice initiatives, and
environmental stewardship activities. New world. New challenges. New learning. 57
