Linking learning to real life, the new Urban Academy was designed from the ground up to provide students with a state-of-the-art facility for innovation, creativity, and physical education. An environment where young minds are encouraged to unlock their full potential, as they endeavour to become the leaders of tomorrow.

Our campus reflects the evolving needs of students, parents and the fast-paced world around us. From the facility to the faculty, no detail has been spared to ensure that your child receives the most enriching experience possible.

Situated close to home, our new location puts us within a 15 minute drive from Burnaby, Surrey, and Tri-Cities and at the forefront of accessibility – it is an easy commute when you can get to school any way you like.

We are proud to inject creativity and diversity into the learning environment. Each of our students learns differently but appreciate linking their classroom learning to real life experiences. We find that by connecting curriculum we, maximize retention, skill development, and cognition. Therefore, our new classrooms will have movable walls to open up learning space, and rooms will be wired for the most current technology.

There are designated learning spaces for pre-primary (JK students that include their own two play decks. Our Junior School which includes Kindergarten to Grade 3 students share the second floor.

_ We are currently adding the fifth floor addition, and once that is complete our Lower and Upper Middle School Students (Gr. 4-8) will occupy the third floor while sharing the Maker Space and Library with other UA students. The fourth and fifth floors will become UA's Senior School for our Grade 9-12 Students.

In addition to classroom space, there are also multiple multi-purpose learning spaces to facilitate specialist instruction (drama, music etc). presentations, showcases, science labs, assemblies and collaboration. We also have a large multipurpose space and community kitchen to allow school events to be held onsite. Our full size high school gym is a great location for intramural sports and to support a competitive athletics program.

Our new school fuses arts and sciences with real-world applications and hands-on experiences. We are creating a dedicated technology hub, science lab, and a media learning centre, fully equipped with modern learning technologies. The library will be a fusion of a traditional library and a technology lab to offer an innovative space that is reflective of the real world. Even our lockers will be outfitted with technology charging stations.

We have spared no details in curating a space where students can discover the arts and unlock their creative potential. Creativity is multi-disciplinary, and the campus features music areas, art rooms, and a performance space and theatre for audiences of up to 120 people.

Physical education thrives at Urban Academy, and we encourage students to move and experience as part of a complete education. 10,000 square feet of innovative outdoor spaces, a full-sized gymnasium will accommodate physical activity, assemblies, and other multi-purpose needs. There will be a rooftop patio to be used for older students to create gardens and work on science projects. Glass walls will make the gym visible from throughout the school, and we are also minutes from Hume Park, which hosts tennis courts, fields, a pool, water park, and a playground.
