Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

You Photoshopped that.
uselaine: Cartman says we should sue you for slander but Stan says we should forgive you since you're an American and nobody should be blamed for an accident of birth. I'm reserving judgement on this pending total retraction and abject abasement. Please see:
the official school district site, and Peter Wong's PBase Gallery for independent photos of the school. Both these photos differ slightly from mine since the school has recently been repainted.
The City of Victoria website locates the school on a map - click your doubting mouse on the blue flag education icon.
Let the grovelling begin!
I love the photo of the tunnel below! And the Carr house, very beautiful

A thousand apologies. **cough**spit**
OK uselaine, you're forgiven. I must confess that I just about fell off my bike when I first noticed the name of this school. It's directly across the road from Beacon Hill Park, from which, I suspect, it got its name.
(Can't believe you played the American card.)
It was originally called "South Ward" school (the much more impressive "North Ward" school was located in the Douglas/Hillside area, but it's long gone now).
I presume the name was changed to South Park when the North Ward school was demolished.
