The Dunlap Family
Excerpt from Fall 2015 issue of The Link:
The idea to start The Country Day School was the topic of a 1971 dinner conversation between Moffat Dunlap, the late Margo Bindhardt, Edmond G. Eberts and the late Daphne Eberts. All were in agreement that King Township was in need of a co-ed private elementary school. Moffat and Margo enrolled their two children, Louise and John, the year the School opened. Moffat’s youngest daughters, Daphne and Allie, also attended CDS starting in the late 80s.
The Link caught up with all of them in early September to record their memories and recollections of attending the school their parents helped to found.

Land Acknowledgment
The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
