We let nature do what no textbook can

We believe academic excellence is achieved through a balance of rigorous academics, inclusive social interaction and outdoor education.
At Rosseau Lake College, students experience an education rooted in nature and guided by purpose. One that prepares them not just for academic success, but for all of life’s possibilities.
“Having to work with my community has to be one of the most valuable lessons this school has taught me, not only as a student, but as a team member.”

Here, “classrooms” are a relative term

At Rosseau Lake College, nature is more than our backdrop, it’s fundamental to our education. As Canada’s smallest independent school, our close-knit community of students and teachers ensures every voice is heard.
Our experiential model of education empowers students to explore boldly, lead confidently, and embrace the world as both a classroom and playground.
“I feel coming here, you really unlock not only your potential, but find things that you actually enjoy.”
