St. Basil-The-Great College is a Catholic Secondary School with a long and proud tradition of academic excellence. The Basilian Fathers founded St. Basil College in 1962, as a boys' boarding school. Today, St. Basil-The-Great College is a co-educational institution and part of the Toronto Catholic District School Board, educating young men & women in the Basilian tradition of excellence. Our school philosophy is embodied in our school motto, Excelsa Petite, which means, “strive for excellence”. Thus, at St. Basil our aim is to provide, in a Catholic, Christian environment, the conditions that will enable each student to achieve the maximum possible development – intellectual, physical, spiritual and moral. We hope that our students will grow in an understanding of themselves and of each other. We strive to help each student grow both as an individual and as a responsible member of the community.
Pelmo Park-Humberlea is a neighbourhood north-west of the central core, in the former suburb of North York. Like its name implies, it is composed of two geographic areas. This area can aptly be described as family neighbourhood with access to parks, green space and a slower pace than found closer to downtown. The area is bordered to the west by the Humber River.
