College Bourget
AN HISTORICAL AND MODERN ENVIRONMENT

Located on a mountain side, the Collège Bourget campus is divided in different pavilions and sports platforms. This exceptional environment offers a safe haven encouraging an active lifestyle.

A STIMULATING ENVIRONMENT
Talking about the history of Bourget is seeing thousands of students passing through at a too fast pace, all wanting to learn and discover the world. These young people, who are all aiming for a better quality of life for themselves and others, are committed to building a fair and joyous world. It is remembering the excitement at the beginning of every school year, the moments of happiness brought by academic or extracurricular successes, the heart-wrenching goodbyes after five, six, seven, eight or ten years of living together in the unique environment that is the college on the hill.

A CLOSE-KNIT FAMILY
Collège Bourget continuously carves a path for the future of the many children that comes through its door from all over the world.
Our students hail from several regions of Quebec, Ontario, other Canadian provinces, and also from many different continents, all living alongside each other in our school residence. Now part of the UNESCO Schools Project Network, the Brundtland green schools project and Classe Confucius, the college keeps updating its teaching methods to reach as many different types of students as possible.

TRACES OF OUR HISTORY
To celebrate its 150th and 160th anniversary, Collège Bourget published a book and produced a movie on its history.
For the 150th, in 2000, Mr. Raymond Séguin, alumni and professor at the college, wrote Bourget, au quotidien …, on the institution’s history.

IMPORTANCE OF THE FRENCH LANGUAGE
Since its inception, in 1850, Collège Bourget has focused on teaching quality French. Students are regularly required to write essays and have access to a literary program that goes well beyond the Ministère de l’Éducation et de l’Enseignement supérieur’s objectives.

These activities allow the students to both learn to appreciate nature and have an on-site experience. Students are also taught in state-of-the-art labs, in which they can rigorously apply the scientific method.
INTERNATIONAL VISION
In addition to English and Spanish, Collège Bourget offers Mandarin classes on an optional basis. Students can also take part in cultural and cooperative trips in Canada or elsewhere in the world. To top it all off, we welcome international students who introduce us to different cultures, which encourages open-mindedness and sharing.
