De La Salle College, Private Catholic school in Old Toronto, Canada
De La Salle College is a private secondary school in Toronto serving students from grade 5 to 12 on a campus with science laboratories, art studios, and sports facilities. These facilities support different learning areas and allow students to develop skills across multiple disciplines.
The school was founded in 1851 when the Brothers of the Christian Schools established their first location at the corner of Lombard and Jarvis Streets. In 1931, the institution relocated to the Oaklands mansion, where it has remained since.
The college weaves religious and academic values into daily school life, with Catholic principles shaping teaching and student interactions. This blend influences how the community relates to learning and to each other.
The campus sits on a tree-lined property in central Toronto, creating a green setting for school activities. Visitors should know that this is an active school facility, and campus access may be limited accordingly.
The school building occupies the historic Oaklands mansion, acquired in 1931 and surrounded by a grove of mature oak trees. This combination of historic architecture and natural greenery is uncommon for a school facility in urban Toronto.
