Testimonials

Monica Conohan, currently studying at Dalhousie University (Sydney Academy Class of 2020).

My experience with the IB French program has made me very confident in my abilities as a bilingual student. The results of four years in the program have gone above and beyond my expectations, by allowing me not only to perfect the French language, but to give me the opportunity to confidently tackle history, literary pieces, and society outside of the classroom in a second language.

Katie Trimm, currently studying Bachelor of Engineering Dalhousie University (Sydney Academy Class of 2018).

When I reflect back, I am very happy I had my IB experience. I believe that the small class sizes, study habits, and critical thinking skill set that I developed has helped me to be successful in my engineering program. And most importantly, the lifelong friendships that I gained!

Ryan Callaghan, Bachelor of Engineering Graduate, Dalhousie University (Sydney Academy Class of 2016)

The IB Programme challenged me to go above and beyond what an average high school student would do. When I wasn't busy with school work, I was busy with athletics and volunteering for the school and community. The schedule taught me how to manage my time, and now that I'm in university, I know that's a very important skill to have.

Natasha Kochhar, Senior MP Advisor - House of Commons (Sydney Academy Class of 2014)

My 3 years in the Sydney Academy IB program encouraged me to become a well-rounded student and a critical thinker, but more importantly, it gave me lifelong friendships and unique relationships with both students and teachers that significantly attributed to my personal growth. The small class sizes and family-like atmosphere allow for all students to shine both inside and outside the classroom. I will be forever proud to be a Sydney Academy IB Alum!
