It was first located in the basement of St. Augustine of Canterbury Church in Leaside. The name of the school came from its original proximity to two contemporaneous developments: first, Sunnybrook Hospital, which was at the time a hospital for veterans, called the Sunnybrook Veterans Hospital, and second, Sunnybrook Plaza, which was built in 1951 and was the first shopping mall in Toronto and one of the first malls in Canada. The school’s teaching philosophy was originally based on a combination of Montessori and Fröbel methods.
