About This Property

The school building is without question, Victoria architect Jules Leffland's most unusual and creative design. The Convent School, started in 1867, provided needed classroom space with the completion of the Nazareth Academy by contractors Guithier & Mitchell in 1904. Leffland's eclectic creation drew from then-popular styles (Spanish & Mission revivals) and perhaps historical references, such Flemish Guild Halls.
