Greeting
​​Welcome to the home of the Marauders!​

Walter Murray's colours are blue and grey, which we wear with pride and a strong sense of tradition. Our school community is noted for its excellence in academics, athletics, fine arts and technology. Over the years, Walter Murray has amassed a long list of accomplishments in many areas, including debate, mathematics, science and sports, to name a few. The Marauder family is well known for its achievements, sense of pride, respect for self and others, and incredible hospitality. At Walter Murray, students are encouraged to challenge themselves, to ask questions and to offer solutions. 

Our staff believes strongly in Walter Murray's Code of Conduct — created jointly with students — which states: "The staff and students of Walter Murray Collegiate are committed to a school environment that promotes a sense of safety, belonging and equality, where mutual respect and the pursuit of higher learning are integral components of our learning community." 

The common language used in our Code of Conduct focuses on treating each person with dignity and respect. At Walter Murray, honouring diversity is a central component of our learning community. Most importantly, we work toward reaching our full potential and helping those around us do the same. We create capacity for student leadership in our classrooms and through our extracurricular programming and we encourage students to assume leadership roles that move us toward positive change — change that benefits our students, staff and the entire community. 

To truly become part of Walter Murray and to feel the Marauder spirit, we encourage students to get involved and to reap the rewards of their involvement. From French Immersion​ to a German Exchange program and Outdoor School, there is something for everyone.
