Leading Vision A dynamic global leader inspiring the pursuit of wisdom and self-knowledge. ● Havergal College cultivates a strong passion for learning and an understanding of one’s self so that graduates live life to the fullest. ● We build global capabilities in our students, empowering them to be effective and active contributors to society anywhere, anytime and in collaboration with others. ● With more than 9,000 alumnae in over 60 countries around the world, our students have access to a network of established and accomplished Old Girls. Boarding Program Philosophy Our philosophy is to nurture the academic achievement, personal growth and wellbeing of each student by fostering student agency, strong connections with the faculty and wellbeing staff, and parent collaboration. We provide a supportive, comfortable and warm environment in which students are able to flourish holistically and where mistakes are embraced as guideposts in our learning. Our community celebrates the academic, social and cultural diversity of each of our Boarding students and is sensitive to the individual needs of all. Our goal is for each student to be a well-rounded individual, accountable for managing themselves and empowered to positively influence their own lives and the world around them. Commitment to Diversity Havergal will foster understanding and respect about the difference in race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, marital status, family status or disability.
