Welcome to Enoch Turner Schoolhouse

The Schoolhouse offers a variety of education programs. From the moment they step through the Schoolhouse door, students see and feel what it was like to be a schoolchild in the Victorian era using wooden desks and slates and conforming to classroom discipline while dressed in starched collars and pinafores.

The Enoch Turner Schoolhouse is historically and architecturally famous as Toronto's first free school and oldest standing schoolhouse. The Enoch Turner Schoolhouse Foundation restored and operated the Schoolhouse as a museum and community facility for three decades.

Today, the Schoolhouse is owned and managed by the Ontario Heritage Trust. The Foundation continues to provide support through fund raising, special public events and community relations. 

Countless happy couples have happy memories of their weddings here and of coming back to celebrate anniversaries and family reunions.
