Campus Renaissance

Investing today for tomorrow. The generosity of alumni and friends has made Rothesay Netherwood School one of Canada’s most picturesque schools. Our beautiful 125-acre campus has seen significant advancements while maintaining the character and sense of community that has been established for nearly 150 years.
We must continue to be faithful stewards of our campus infrastructure and its environment. Some spaces require modernization; others require preservation. It is our goal to sustain a campus that encourages innovative learning and continues to reflect our traditions and values.

To provide students with the best education possible, RNS is building and developing facilities to meet the challenges of an ever-changing world. Focusing on the RNS Strategic Plan and Campus Master Plan, the School has been undertaking the Campus Renaissance initiative, which will modernize many of our facilities and beautify our campus.

Campus Renaissance is a multi-year undertaking that will refresh spaces,
upgrade facilities, revitalize the campus landscape and create signature spaces. These upgrades will enhance the RNS learning experience and ensure the safety of our students.

How can you help?
RNS benefits from the engagement and financial support of its alumni, parents and friends. This commitment has been critical in developing our
campus and infrastructure. As part of Campus Renaissance, we are reaching out to the RNS community to revitalize a place we all know and love for future generations.

Campus Renaissance is a way in which individuals, classes and reunion years can make special gifts that will benefit the RNS campus for years to come. Such gifts are acknowledged with commemorative plaques and naming opportunities.
