Student Life

North Point Navigators

Navigators are more then just our team name. Navigators are curious, eager, resourceful and relentless in their pursuit of everything they do.

Each student upon joining North Point becomes part of a Navigators Squad.  These squads provide the foundation for friendly rivalry and camaraderie for your boy’s entire time at North Point. Throughout the year, students participate in numerous challenges (academic, physical, character). While building up skills, these challenges are also for the elusive pursuit of the Navigators’ Cup – awarded to the squad with the most points at the end of the school year.

Students in grades 7-9 can participate on the North Point Navigators athletic teams that compete within the Calgary Independent School Athletic Association (CISAA). North Point athletics teams include:

FALL: Golf, Cross Country Running, Volleyball

WINTER: Basketball, Floor Hockey, Badminton

SPRING: Track & Field

Students in grades 6-9 may participate in an optional travel program to Utah/Arizona held every spring break. This annual trip of 11 days – three travel days and eight exploration days – takes a group of adventurous, curious and courageous boys to the southern Utah desert during spring break. The students are introduced to canyoneering, repelling, hiking, climbing, camping, meal preparation and outdoor survival skills. This is the trip of a lifetime!

*Program fees apply to this optional trip.

North Point students participate in a number of traditions throughout the school year. These include:

• Blue Lake Camp : 3-day/2-night outdoor education retreat for students in Grades 4-9 and held annually in late September.
• Christmas Ornament : each student new to the school in a school year brings an ornament and places it on the school Christmas tree.
• Mountain Day : a surprise day in the mountains. – the Mountain Day bell is rung in the morning, telling all students that classes are cancelled and they participate in a day of camaraderie, hiking and fresh air.
