Henry Hudson was an English sea explorer and navigator in the early 17th century. After several voyages to explore a prospective Northeast Passage to India, Hudson explored the region around modern New York City while looking for a western route to Asia. Hudson's final expedition ranged farther north in search of the Northwest Passage, to the Orient, leading to his discovery of the Hudson Strait and Hudson Bay.

Henry Hudson Senior Public School is named after a famed 17th Century explorer who journeyed to discover entry ways to the interior of North America. Our school provides a safe and caring environment where all students have the opportunity to follow in Henry Hudson's footsteps and embark on their own journeys of discovery. We encourage students to discover new knowledge through our curriculum offerings; to discover new aspects of themselves through participation in our co-curricular activities and our Guidance programs; and, to discover new friends by engaging in all the opportunities that our school has to offer.
