Student Life
Life outside of the classroom at Elmwood is full of fun, friendships and festivities. Clubs, teams, student government and the House system offer numerous opportunities to explore interests and connect with those who share them.
Student government at Elmwood is the perfect training ground for future leaders. Our prefects, led by the Head Girl, generate school spirit by organizing events, and act as a student voice with the administration.
The entire Elmwood community, from JK to staff, is divided into four Houses, each named after a prominent and inspirational woman in history: Elizabeth Fry, Helen Keller, Florence Nightingale and Cairine Wilson. Students and staff compete in a spirit of friendly rivalry for points for their House teams. Houses also choose a programme of social service each year and fund-raise in support of their chosen charities.

Students also take part in the Duke of Edinburgh programme. This is a universally recognized award and the programme is considered one of the best for the personal development of young people.

Athletics
Elmwood’s athletics programme offers opportunities for all students, whether they are fierce competitors or just like to play for fun.
Performing Arts
Musical groups, choirs and theatre troupes are a great way for Elmwood girls to explore their talents.
