Kanata North Schools
June is here and summer is in full swing! If you’re contemplating a move and have children in school, now is the time to get serious on your search to ensure you’re settled into the new house and ready for the next school year.
Kanata North is firstly known as Canada's largest technology park, bringing together the country's largest density of technology companies ranging from eager start ups to global-reaching giants. Kanata North is the place to be if you are serious about a career in tech, as it offers unparalleled access to the connections you'll need to get projects off the ground.
But it's not just a newly emerging silicon valley. Technata also offers residents a rich blend of cultural and recreational activities to enjoy - including several excellent golf courses. The real estate landscape is made up of recently-built properties that serve diverse communities, from the high-end homes of Kanata Lakes to more affordable starter townhomes. Keeping its growing families in mind, recent development has been focused on the addition of parks and open spaces, great shopping, a variety of restaurants, and other things to do around an already-thriving business sector.
Kanata North is also loaded with highly rated schools. When you think about it, this does make sense - highly intelligent people from all over the world are drawn to work in this tech hub, and so I understand why they would demand a high-quality education for their children as well.
