Our Site

Exceptional programming always starts with an exceptional foundation. Our site is one of the greatest foundations you could possibly begin building your students experience from. The Bancroft Leadership Centre is situated on over 150 acres of stunning property and in the centre is our very own lake. This property is private, secure and natural. The diverse land, forests and waterfront are the backdrop we use to provide exceptional programs. Our clear maps and well marked paths allow us to make use of the environment while keeping kids familiar with their surroundings. In addition to our leadership and outdoor education programs, we produce some of the best Maple Syrup in the provence. Our “Trans CanAqua Pipe Line” and Sugar Shack are  terrific teaching tools, which allows kids to learn about this great Canadian tradition any time in the year.

Our Location

The Bancroft Leadership Centre is located in Cardiff, Ontario. Our site is just north of Peterborough, about 2 hours drive from North East Toronto, and 2.5 hours from Ottawa. Our site while remote, is also only a 15 minute drive to a hospital facility.
