"Not only is it fun to get involved, but it benefits the students and supports the School."
The Country Day School has an active network of people in our community with a diverse set of talents to share, and this sharing of time and energy contributes to the education and personal development of our students in both tangible and intangible ways.
We would be happy to direct you to the appropriate area within the School that would benefit from your skill set. Whether you have a few hours to spare or more - we would love to hear from you.
Please peruse the volunteer options listed below. If you are interested in learning more about any of these opportunities, please contact the Office of Community Relations at 905.833.3640 or email us at volunteer@cds.on.ca.
Volunteers in the General Store fulfill an integral role in positive community relations, assisting parents and students with sales, stocking inventory, updating displays, and more!
These outstanding volunteers fulfill a wide variety of functions unique to each grade. Their time is spent in part by organizing class parties, decorating for special themes and events, as well as assisting in communicating information to class parents.
The Auction is the School's largest fundraiser, featuring live and silent auctions, a live band, dancing and a variety of fun-filled activities, all focused on a central theme. Volunteers are essential to the Auction's success and fun is had by all! Paint, decorate, design displays, help us with invitations, aquisitions and more!
A large selection of gently used, clean, good quality uniform items are available. Sales happen four times per year in the Di Ciano Atrium of the Performing Arts Centre.
This is an annual one-stop retail showcase held each November in the spectacular CDS Performing Arts Centre (PAC). The event features unique holiday giftware, home décor items, designer fashion, original artwork, tasty treats, and trendy trinkets.
We are always looking for occasional help throughout the School and invite you to add your name to the list. Please contact volunteer@cds.on.ca or (905) 833-3640.
CDS wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. For thousands of years, these have been the traditional lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. We also recognize the traditional territory of the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and the Haudenosaunee peoples who also shared this land. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for these lands and waters for future generations.
