Join The Party at CDS!

After a three-year hiatus, we are thrilled to announce the return of The Country Day School’s annual Auction on Friday, June 2, 2023! This is an evening you won’t want to miss as we come together as a community to celebrate our school’s 50th anniversary in the Cyclone Dome.

The CDS Dinner & Auction is our most anticipated adult social event, as well as the largest fundraiser of the year. The evening features live music and entertainment, cocktails and dinner, a live and silent auction, and much more. CDS families and friends have been coming together to celebrate and make this event a huge success since 1973.

Remembering Walter Davison

It is hard to believe that June 15th will be the third anniversary of the passing of our dear friend, teacher and colleague, Walter Davison.

We will gather to remember Walter’s life on Wednesday, June 21 at 4:00 pm, the first day of summer. On this day, we will dedicate a maple tree and bench in his honour outside the Middle School Director’s Office and beside the Middle School gathering rocks.

Please join us to share stories in memory of a teacher, mentor, and friend who positively impacted so many during his extraordinary teaching and coaching career. Refreshments will follow in the Petrachek Courtyard following the dedication.

We ask that you RSVP by June 16th so that we may prepare for those in attendance.

Annual Golf Tournament

We are pleased to announce the return of the CDS Annual Golf Tournament on Thursday, August 17th at Cardinal Golf Club in Newmarket (Davis Drive and Hwy 400).

We invite all parents, alumni, past parents, grandparents, faculty, staff and friends and family of CDS to join us for this day. All skill levels are welcome, but we ask that you do have a knowledge of golf. Parents are welcome to include Middle and Senior School students, that play golf, as part of their foursome. (students must golf with their parents).

Upcoming Events

The Country Day School's Office of Community Relations is responsible for managing the majority of the annual school events. These events usually involve the whole CDS community, including our current parents, past parents and alumni.

While the events are managed through our office, their success is due to the overwhelming support of our parent volunteers. Whether you are able to give a few hours or make a larger commitment, all volunteers are highly valued and greatly appreciated.

For more information about our annual events or to volunteer, please contact us via email at events@cds.on.ca or at 905-833-3640.

We look forward to hearing from you!
