Island Public/Natural Science School
The Island Public/Natural Science School (also called Island PNSS, IPNSS or Island) is a primary school located on Centre Island in the Toronto Islands in the Old Toronto region of Toronto, Canada. It is operated by the Toronto District School Board (TDSB). Prior to 1998, the Toronto Board of Education (TBE) operated the school. As of 2013, the school had 179 students. 15% of the student population originated from Algonquin and Ward's islands and about 85% of the students live in the city and take ferry transportation to school. A report in May 2017 stated that "of the 240 students that go to school on the island, only 25 actually live there". In the 2018-2019 school year, there were 264 students, in 11 classes including full-day which includes the Full-day Kindergarten; the curriculum includes Music, Core French, Physical And Health Education, Media Literacy, Dance & Drama and Special Education. The TDSB also operates a residential, three day (with two overnight stays) natural science Outdoor Ed. program (which began in 1960) on the site, for visiting grade 5 and 6 students and a non-profit day care centre, the Gibraltar Day Nursery, for children ages 2 – 5.
