Laurentian Hills, Kitchener: South-Central Kitchener With McLennan Park at Your Door
Laurentian Hills occupies an interesting position in south-central Kitchener — hilly terrain and an adjacent McLennan Park give the neighbourhood an outdoor character that buyers don’t usually find at this price point. Homes from the early 1970s through the late 1980s come in bungalows, backsplits, sidesplits, and two-storeys, offering real variety in style and layout. Families looking for space, recreation access, and strong highway connections without paying west-end premiums find a compelling case here. The Sunrise Centre and Activa Sportsplex add shopping and recreation, and Laurentian Senior Public School sits right within the neighbourhood for Grades 7 and 8 students.
Schools
WRDSB students may attend Alpine Public School, Trillium Public School, or Forest Hill Public School (Junior Kindergarten–Grade 6), Laurentian Senior Public School (Grades 7–8), and Cameron Heights Collegiate Institute (Grades 9–12). WCDSB families attend Monsignor R.M. Haller Catholic Elementary School (JK–8) and St. Mary’s High School (Grades 9–12).
