02The morning, roughly

See high school in motion.

Hudson is a small independent school in Toronto's west end, teaching kids from JK through Grade 12. On October 17, we're opening the doors — not for a slide deck or a boardroom pitch. You'll walk the labs, the art studios, the university counselling office, and hear directly from current Grade 12s about what the last four years actually looked like.

1:30

Arrive & welcome

Coffee, tea, and a friendly hello from our admissions team. No forms, no clipboards.

1:40

A short introduction

Ten minutes with the Head of School and the Head of Upper School — how the high school program works, where our students go after, and what Hudson does differently.

1:55

Tour: labs, studios, common areas

Walk the building with a current student and a teacher. Science labs, art studios, the university counselling office — all the spaces your child would spend real time in.

2:40

Grade 12 panel + Q&A

A short panel with current Grade 12s about their time here, then Q&A on academics, universities, extracurriculars, admissions — everything is on the table.

2:55

Coffee, and a proper goodbye

One more coffee. A moment to talk to teachers or students you met. Then out the door — no follow-up you didn't ask for.

03A few things families ask

Answered honestly.

Should I bring my child?

Absolutely. High school is a decision your child needs to feel — they should be in the room with current students, see the classrooms, and get a sense of the vibe themselves.

Will I hear from current Grade 12s?

Yes. Part of the morning is a short panel with current Grade 12s — no scripts, just an honest conversation about what their four years looked like.

Where do Hudson grads go?

Ontario universities (Waterloo, U of T, Queen's, Western), international schools, and specialty programs across arts, sciences, business, and engineering. Our university counselling team can walk you through recent placements in the Q&A.

Do I have to apply after visiting?

No. This is a first look. Some families come to Open House a few times before applying. Others come once and never do — both are fine.

What if I can't make October 17?

We host private, one-family tours most weekdays. Email admissions@hudsoncollege.ca and we'll find a time that works.

Where do I park?

Free street parking on Ascot Avenue and side streets. On transit, we're a short walk from Dufferin Station and the St. Clair West streetcar.
