Collingwood School is an independent, non-denominational, co-educational, university-preparatory school founded in 1984. Located in West Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, it delivers the British Columbia Ministry of Education curriculum from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12.
Located at 49°21′38″N 123°07′12″W / 49.3606°N 123.1201°W.
The Morven campus is the oldest of Collingwood School. It is located at 70 Morven Drive in the British Properties residential area of West Vancouver, and houses Grades 8 and 9 of the Middle School and Grades 10-12 of the Senior School. The buildings previously made up Glenmore Elementary School, which was closed in 1982 along with several other schools in West Vancouver. Parents, students and teachers protested the closure of Glenmore, but were unsuccessful in keeping the school open in the face of declining enrollment and a reduced education budget.
The campus has since seen several expansions and improvements, including a full redevelopment completed in 2014 that included a state of the art theatre, dance studio, band and choir facilities, library, gymnasium, weight facilities and athletics field, cafeteria, and 21st century learning spaces, all around an open, central student commons. Morven is adjacent to Glenmore Park.
