So much has happened in a span of a few short weeks since our 2019-2020 school year started in September. Most importantly, we welcomed our new and returning students to our warm and friendly community. Whether they are at Brillantmont until graduation or just for one term, we embrace our students in the family environment that Brillantmont has nurtured for over 135 years.

Each student is different, with personal learning styles and individual talents. Our teachers and coordinators work together with the students to set their goals to help them shape their future.

The coordinators have given us their insight on how the first few weeks of the year have been so far. They talk about their interaction with the students and, overall, how the school year has started for the entire community.

Brillantmont is a school which changes lives.

Our outstanding teachers, our support and care and our incredible learning environment inspire students and help them feel confident and comfortable with themselves. As educators, we are proud to play such a key role in the lives of young people. It is a privilege and an honour. Nothing makes us prouder than to follow their journeys and celebrate their accomplishments, to see how they grow and develop to become mature, responsible young citizens of the world.

In this video, we share the journey of Megan, who has been at Brillantmont for several years. Now in her final year, she recounts the impact that Brillantmont has made on her life and her future choices.

Living with others of the same age creates a unique bond; you share triumphs and joys and you’ve also got people to support you when the going gets tough. The friendships you make during your time at Brillantmont will shape and impact your life.
