Middle School Coffee Cares
During the month of March, the Middle School Council wanted to find a unique way to give back to the community. Coffee Cares was an initiative started to thank local healthcare heroes. The goal was to collect as many gift cards as possible for various coffee shops (Tim Hortons, Starbucks, etc.) to deliver to the ICU and COVID-19 unit at Southlake Hospital in Newmarket.
To accompany each gift card, Middle School students personalized handwritten notes of thanks as a small token of our appreciation for all that Southlake Regional Health Centre does. We were absolutely thrilled by the outstanding participation of our Middle School community as we were able to deliver over 150 cards to Southlake. Thank you to everyone who contributed! A small act of kindness goes a very long way.

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.
