Buchanan Park Public School is located between Garth and West 5th Street and Mohawk Road and Fennell Avenue, abutting Buchanan Park in Hamilton, Ontario. The school was built in 1960 and now serves 300 students. We enjoy strong ties with our community, and have an active and vital School Council (14 members) and over 36 Parent volunteers.

Our school has formed a partnership with Wal-Mart and our School Council holds monthly meetings, workshops and special events. The school priorities include a focus on Writing (Reasoning and Organization of Ideas) and Relationships. The staff and our community work as a team to provide a wide variety of special events at Buchanan Park School. We will begin our fifteenth operetta season with this year's production. Our team strives for excellence and believes that academic improvement and accountability are worthwhile goals.

"Bee" Smart! "Bee" Active! "Bee" Involved! We've chosen the "Bee" theme to support our efforts to improve Social/Learning Skills here at Buchanan Park. It's particularly appropriate for us here at Buchanan Park, because in addition to being a "busy" school, we also feel that there is a strong sense of purpose to all the activity. We want our students to work effectively in a calm, safe learning community where everyone is able to put forth their best effort. In fact, bees are known to live in busy, purposeful societies. Bees carry out a variety of activities throughout their lifetimes and they work collaboratively. We aim to help ourt students develop balanced skills learned through participation in a variety of experiences.

This website has been updated for students, parents, and teachers to use. New to the website is the students/parents page that contains forms to print off if you or your child has misplaced them, and the links page. The links page contains websites for homework help as well as a link to the bpoc's website. There is also added a photogallery which we will place pictures of events in. A consent form will be needed for your child's picture to appear on the website. No pictures will be added without this consent. We hope to make this a useful tool for everyone to use. The pages may show differently on the various monitors available and their resolution.
