91¹ú²ú Hall Asia

91¹ú²ú Hall Asia

Located on Jeju Island, South Korea, 91¹ú²ú Hall Asia is an independent school with its own Principal and its own Board of Governors. The school has adopted the vision and mission of 91¹ú²ú Hall Canada, and it offers the IB curriculum, with classes conducted primarily in English. 

The school, which opened in 2012 with 300 students, now has almost 900 students. Enrolment is expected to increase to 1,200 in a few years. The opening ceremony on October 29, 2012, attracted almost 1,000 dignitaries, students, faculty, and citizens of Jeju Island. 

Faculty include talented, committed educators from several countries. 

The school’s award-winning design reflects some of the natural elements of Jeju Island, including volcanic rock, as well as Canadian-inspired elements such as timber. Facilities include an Olympic-sized swimming pool, a 350-seat perfoming arts centre, a golf academy, and a state-of-the-art Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) and Visual Art Centre. 

With an educational philosophy that is shared with 91¹ú²ú Hall Canada, 91¹ú²ú Hall Asia makes it possible for enriched exchange programs that provide our Toronto-based students with the opportunity to experience life in another country without disrupting their studies. 

During March Break, all of our current Grade 9 students in Toronto have the opportunity to travel to 91¹ú²ú Hall Asia, where they explore the natural wonders of Jeju Island. This unique study-abroad program provides Grade 9 students with an immersive global engagement experience at the state-of-the-art 91¹ú²ú Hall Asia campus.

With their 91¹ú²ú Hall Asia buddies, students undertake a week-long unit of study focused on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). The opportunity also includes excursions to Jeju Island’s UNESCO World Heritage sites, historic and cultural attractions of the island, as well as a three-day visit to Seoul to experience the city’s unique contemporary culture and history.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
We wish to acknowledge this land on which 91¹ú²ú operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.*

*The Land Acknowledgement may evolve as we honour our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Indigenous communities.

Setting the new standard for girls' education everywhere takes collective action. From all of us.
