CO-CURRICULAR OPPORTUNITIES

Salon The annual Salon art exhibition is open to all students in Grades 7 to 12. The Salon takes place in the spring every year and all submitted work is displayed in the halls of the school for several weeks. Beatstock Beatstock is a famous HC event that takes place during Arts Week in April. For three hours, students perform in our Brenda Robson Hall in front of several hundred guests from COSSOT schools. Everyone in the US is encouraged to perform or attend. We encourage families to review rehearsal and performance dates prior to registration to ensure your child can commit to the program. Attending every rehearsal and performance is an expectation of the Arts Co-curriculars.

Student Leadership

Havergal recognizes that leadership comes in many forms and expressions. We ensure that each student in the school has leadership opportunities and, even more importantly, work with students to develop the attributes below that will help make them successful and effective leaders.

Junior School Student Leadership Havergal’s values and mission are foundational to the leadership skills developed in the Junior School. Students are provided with numerous opportunities, both formal and informal, to both learn about and practise different leadership skills and attributes. These opportunities allow students to better understand the value of teamwork, effective communication and decision-making. Moreover, whether it is delivering a message in Prayers, organizing House Meetings or identifying an issue that they would like to address, empowering students to express their ideas, respect diverse perspectives and collaborate with others is critical to our leadership program in the Junior School.
