St. Andrew's College (SAC) is an independent boarding and day school founded in 1899 and located in Aurora, Ontario, Canada. It is a university-preparatory school for boys in grades 5 to 12, with a focus on academic achievement, athletics, and leadership development. It is accredited by the Canadian Educational Standards Institute and is affiliated with other associations, including CAIS, CASE, NAIS and the International Boys' Schools Coalition (IBSC). The school's coat of arms was registered with the Canadian Heraldic Authority on August 15, 2006. ^[3]

History

St. Andrew's College was first situated at the northeast corner of Yonge Street and Roxborough Avenue, in the Toronto neighbourhood of Rosedale, in a house named Chestnut Park previously owned by Sir David Macpherson. The college opened on September 10, 1899 under the direction of Headmaster Rev. George Bruce. The first student to enroll was Douglas W. Fraser ('06). By the end of the first school year there were 56 students, including 13 boarders. ^[4]

Rev. Bruce was succeeded by D. Bruce Macdonald as Headmaster in 1900, and in 1901 the school published its first yearbook: The Review. The Old Boys Association, still active presently, was founded in 1903.

In 1905, due to the increasing size of the student body, the school moved to a new campus within Rosedale, west of MacLennan Avenue, from Summerhill Avenue to Douglas Drive just north of Rosedale Field, in a large Collegiate Gothic structure. The Rosedale Campus was designed to serve 150 boarders, 300 day boys, and 9 masters.

By 1909, the college had students from Canada, Jamaica, the United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, China, and Bermuda. In 1911, the college became a corporation under the control of a Board of Governors.

Over 600 Old Boys fought in the First World War, and 104 lost their lives along with 2 masters. From 1918 to 1920, the college temporarily moved to Knox College, as the Rosedale Campus served as a military hospital for wounded soldiers from the First World War. ^[5]

The school made its final move in 1926 to Aurora, where the current campus occupies a 126-acre (0.51 km²) site in a suburban environment. Its Georgian Revival architecture is built around the traditional quadrangle form. The Memorial Gateway entrance was completed in 1928.

Over 600 Old Boys served during the Second World War, and 45 lost their lives. Plaques listing the names of those who lost their lives are displayed in the Memorial Chapel.

1956, the school magazine The Andrean was created and has been published since.

There are four boarding houses on campus, which is home to approximately half of the 651 boys. Many members of the faculty also live on-campus.

The Aurora campus was featured in the filming of Cadet Kelly and the 5th episode of the Netflix mini-series The Queen's Gambit. ^[6]

Cadet Corps

St. Andrew's is also home to Canada's second largest Royal Canadian Army Cadets Corps. Established in 1905, the #142 St. Andrew's College Highland Cadet Corps is now a multi-year leadership program, but still culminates in an annual inspection and parade in April.

The cadet corps was raised in the fall of 1905 following the model of military training offered at Upper Canada College and Trinity College School. The Corps was under the direction of schoolteacher and militiaman Capt. Grant Cooper and Drill Instructor Sgt. Alfred R. Hatt, who had fought with the Gordon Highlanders at Chitral and in South Africa. The first Cadet Inspection was held at the Rosedale Campus on May 14, 1906, under the Command of Captain Cooper, and the first student cadet commander was First Lieutenant Vincent Massey. On April 24, 1906, the corps made its first public appearance at Queen's Park where it was reviewed by the Duke of Connaught, and on May 18 it participated in training drills with the 48th Highlanders. The cadet corps provided a guard of honour during the Royal Tour of 1939.

The first cadet corps in 1905–06. Vincent Massey is in the front row, 3rd from left.

The School's cadet corps is affiliated with the 48th Highlanders of Canada and retains the same motto ("Dileas Gu Brath" – "Faithful Forever") as well as uniform (scarlet tunic and Modern Gordon tartan). In 2005, the centennial year, the Corps was granted the Freedom of the City of Aurora. ^[4]

Pipes and Drums

The Pipes and Drums is an integral part of the Cadet Corps and one of its best-known elements. The Pipes and Drums were established in 1915 under the tutelage of Pipe Major James Fraser of the 48th Highlanders, formerly of the Gordon Highlanders who had fought at Dargai and in South Africa. In 1941, a jaguar skin that had been shot by Theodore Roosevelt was donated to the college to be worn by the bass drummer. ^{[7] [8]}

The primary responsibility of the Pipes and Drums Band is to provide music for the Battalion when it is on the march. In this role, the Band is front and centre during the Annual Church Parade, Head of School's Parade, and the Annual Cadet Inspection in April.

Internationally renowned as "North America's piping heartland" for its Piping and Drumming program, St. Andrew's College attracts hundreds of potential pipers each year to its summer "Ontario School of Piping and Drumming at St. Andrew's College" camp. ^[9] In June 2019, the decision was made to field a competitive band in grade 2 alongside the existing band, which competed in grade 5. ^[10]

• Annual Cadet Inspection – the annual Cadet Inspection is mandatory for the entire student body at St. Andrew's. The Inspection is usually held in April and invites prominent representatives from all across Canada to inspect the School's Cadet Corps.

Facilities

Early 2000's expansion

In 1999 the architectural firm KPMB headed a project which consisted of planning for a new middle school and parking lot on the established campus. ^[23] From 2000 to 2003, the same architectural firm had an additional project which included the addition of a middle school wing onto an existing building, a parking lot and outdoor spaces and alterations to the existing college, originally constructed in 1926. ^[24]

Covering a total area around 26,000 sq ft of space. The original facility was constructed in 1970, also by The Dalton Company and they were invited back 50 years later to renovate the building. In the CAD $10 million project, the entire interior of the building was reduced back to the core structure, and reconstructed with state of the art facilities for science and technology. Included are university-level chemistry and biology labs, as well as a two-story maker-space and robotics/computer science classrooms. ^[25] The newly renovated McLaughlin Hall also houses a Foucault Pendulum on display which spans vertically through all 3 stories of the building.
