CDS To Host One Week of Debate Camp: June 17-22
This year, we are excited to announce an amazing opportunity for students in Grades 5-10 to take part in Debate Camp 2019, Canada’s public speaking and debating camp at CDS from June 17-22, 2019. This prestigious program, with space for 40 students, is offered for one week only. The directors of the camp are experts in their field, and students work in small groups with highly experienced counsellors.
This day camp, which runs from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM Monday-Friday, will offer students multi-level instruction in public speaking, debating and Model UN skills. Debate Camp has been running for 17 years, and includes among its alumni former CDS student and World Individual Public Speaking and Debating Champion, Natalie Ganzhorn ’16, who attended the camp to hone her skills while in Middle School.

According to CDS’ Debating Coach, Kerstin Wyndham-West, “This camp offers students an incredible overview of a variety of speaking disciplines, and I encourage students who wish to improve their skills to take advantage of this amazing opportunity.”
Debate Camp will be run entirely separate from the seventh season of CDS Summer Camp, however, you can find a link to register on the CDS Summer Camp website, which opened its registration on Monday of this week, or by clicking here: www.debatecamp.com/king-city.

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.
