The Scarborough Gilbert & Sullivan
Society rehearses and stages its performances in the Stan Farrow
Auditorium, which is inside David and Mary Thomson Collegiate
Institute (2740 Lawrence Ave. E. between Midland and Brimley.)
Thomson Collegiate is named after David and Mary Thomson who first settled in Scarborough and farmed near the
present school site. This pioneer spirit is alive and well today and long-held traditions are respected by
its graduates, current staff, students, and the Thomson C.I. community.
Thomson is located in the middle of Scarborough on a major east-west TTC bus route. Students from a
wide selection on ethno-cultural backgrounds are attracted to this small school which creates an exciting
mix of the most diverse student population in all of Scarborough. Although Thomson is one of the oldest
schools in Scarborough, it is proud of its state-of-the-art Science labs (new in 98), state-of-the-art
computer labs, and state-of-the-art software. Computer classes use the latest technology, acquired as part
of the EDNET2 (Silicon Graphics/Shaw Cable) Partnership.
