The Senior School at QMS is a student-centred learning environment that values academic and personal excellence. Our philosophy is to guide students to be resilient, innovative, and solution-focused learners who ask thought-provoking questions and challenge assumptions.
We use our 30-acre campus and our local and global communities to serve as living classrooms where “learning by doing” encourages students to apply their knowledge to complex, real-world challenges. Three signature programming strategies guide our faculty in the delivery of an enriched curriculum. Entrepreneurial Thinking We prepare young minds for the future by encouraging them to see the world through different perspectives.
By applying foundational coursework to real world problems, students are guided in entrepreneurial and innovative thinking, collaborating, incubating ideas, designing and experimenting, and finally prototyping solutions that tackle larger societal challenges. Experiential & Inquiry-based Learning Gender-specific boarding houses are steps away from the academic, athletic, equestrian, and fine arts facilities.
After school and weekend activities continue the development of independence and responsibility and enrich social and cultural interactions. These are supported by boarding staff who live on campus full-time, a school nurse and counselor. Additional levels of activities, supervision and emotional support are provided for our younger boarders in Grades 7 and 8.

Discover the freedom to grow, learn, and thrive in our vibrant boarding program. Live on-campus and become part of a warm, supportive residence community where lifelong friendships are made, individuality is celebrated, and every day offers new opportunities to explore your potential — both in and out of the classroom.
Students in Grades 6 to 12 who wish to live on-campus experience a nurturing residence environment that is just steps away from the classrooms and equestrian centre. We offer full time boarding for all students.
You’ll be able to share your culture, interests and experiences, which helps build deep connections among students, teachers, coaches and staff. Queen Margaret’s School is where lifelong friendships are made.
Most dormitory rooms are shared by two or three students, except for Grade 12 students, who live in individual rooms. Each hallway of rooms has its own name and House Parent.
Both boarding and day students exist and study in an environment that is rich in languages, celebrations and traditions from around the world. We also have a scenic 30-acre campus for you to explore.
Catering to students of all abilities, the QMS Marquee Equestrian Program offers a well-balanced combination of stable management and riding skills designed to optimize experiential learning opportunities in a fun, safe and supportive environment. Whether riding a QMS school horse or their own horse stabled on campus, students can take advantage of an English-focused equestrian program that integrates seamlessly with their academic and extra-curricular activities.
For students seeking the thrill of competition, the QMS Marquee Equestrian Program provides opportunities throughout the year to participate in horse shows at the local, regional, and international levels, including participation in the US-based Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) Program.
With optional credit-granted equine-focused theory courses available such as pre-veterinary Equine Science, Equestrian Management, and Introduction to Horse Training, the QMS Marquee Equestrian Program will prepare riders and non-riders alike for post-secondary schooling and future career opportunities in the Equine Industry.
