Meet the 
Principal

Welcome to Northshore Christian Grammar School’s website.

It is highly likely that you are looking for a school that will support and complement your family to help your children achieve and ultimately, be happy and fruitful.

This website will give you insight about Northshore’s character and about the abundant activities and opportunities it offers. Whether your child is passionate about discovery in science and technology, enjoys the challenges in mathematics or the joys that English or learning another language can bring, we have brought together – and will continue to attract – the best teachers.

Music, sports, arts, languages, service… Good schools offer some of all of these programs, but at great schools like Northshore, the common thread we have between all of these pursuits is that the student sits firmly at the centre. All programs are not only designed so that our students will benefit, but that the student gains the necessary values and skills along the way to independently drive their own development. Northshore Christian Grammar School alumni will be independent, emotionally intelligent, internationally minded citizens. I would love the opportunity to meet with you to discuss what we can offer your child at our new and unique school.

Mr. Stuart Chisholm

Principal
