Connection to Community

Northwestern Polytechnic has many connections to the community through services and events. Our facilities cater to everyone, from theatregoers taking in a musical stage production to fitness enthusiasts participating in a spin class.

We host exciting events like the President's Ball and the NWP Golf Classic Tournament, which allow the community to give back to the institution through fundraising initiatives vital to our students.

During the academic year, the gymnasium is often a hive of activity, with fans cheering on their NWP Wolves volleyball or basketball teams on Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons. If soccer is your game, the Pomeroy Field is where the action is on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Our daycare centre and preschool program use an evidence-based childcare curriculum framework to give children the best possible start in life. Guided by instructors in the Early Learning and Childcare Program, our students gain hands-on experience to provide quality care for children in our community.

The Douglas J. Cardinal Performing Arts Centre, Collins Recital Hall, Black Box Theatre and Fred Speckeen Theatre play host to scores of community musical and drama productions, including student recitals and performances.

For the eternal learner, NWP Continuing Education has a myriad of offerings available to the local community through online and face-to-face courses. Whether it's professional driver trainer training, digital camera fundamentals or basic bookkeeping, we can help you expand your life or professional skills.

Good health and fitness are fundamental to quality of life. Through our facilities, we can help start, improve or maintain your fitness journey. With reasonable drop-in and membership fees, you can work on your cardio in our weightroom, or attend group fitness classes in the fitness studio.

Budding fitness leaders can rent our fitness studio, perfect for a yoga or spin class.

The gymnasium can be configured to cover basketball or volleyball and hosts many community sporting events like the annual all-star high-school basketball and volleyball games.

NWP strives to add value by connecting to our community through many services and partnerships. For more information or to get involved, please contact Community Relations.
