Grandview Adventist Academy is operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church to provide a spiritually-oriented education for children. A belief in the existence of the Creator God is fundamental in the philosophy of Seventh-day Adventist schools. We respect His divine authority and recognize His intervention in human affairs. We believe that true education develops the spiritual, mental, and physical powers of each student, preparing them for the joy of service in this life and for the higher joy of service in the life to come. To achieve this goal, we encourage each student to:

• develop a personal relationship with God and his fellow men as stated in Matthew 2:37-39,
• master the basic academic skills,
• value labour — physical and mental — as the blessing God intended, and
• cultivate physical fitness, mental ability, and moral purity as the blessing God intended.

Grandview Adventist Academy (GAA) has been in existence since the 1940s. Beginning in the home of the Hamilton Adventist pastor, the school was eventually moved to the newly constructed Hamilton Mountain Seventh-day Adventist church in 1953. Since then the school has moved three times, with the present location in Mount Hope being purchased in 1981. A full-sized gymnasium was added in 1991.

GAA serves its community through the support of four constituent churches:

• Hamilton East Seventh-day Adventist Church
• Hamilton Mountain Seventh-day Adventist Church
• Heritage Green Seventh-day Adventist Church
• Really Living Seventh-day Adventist Church
