“Havergal Stories” – New Video Series

In September 2012, Havergal launched a new video series as part of its advertising campaign for this year—“Havergal Stories.” From the perspective of students, faculty, a parent and an Old Girl, the 11 new videos authentically capture both the every day and the magical moments at Havergal. Viewers will find out what makes Havergal so special and why we love our school. Share in the journey… discover our “Havergal Stories” at www.havergal.on.ca/HavergalStories.

Get Involved – Volunteer with the HCC!

The 2013 Annual Havergal Family Skating Party Old Girls, students, faculty, staff, families and friends are invited for an afternoon of fun on the ice!

By Joanne Gooding, HCC Chair 2012–2013 The Havergal Community Committee (HCC) is your parent association. We are a committee of 30 parent volunteers who act as liaisons between the parent body and the faculty, staff and students at Havergal. We also organize and manage a number of school activities and events, including the Used Uniform Sale, the Father Daughter Dance and the Staff Appreciation Luncheon. For these to be successful, we need your support. Join the more than 250 parents who volunteer with the HCC each year. You can volunteer for a single event or throughout the year—we have positions that work with every schedule. Become an integral part of your daughter’s life—be an HCC volunteer—and share your time and talents with the school. It’s both fun and rewarding. Volunteering is also a great way to connect with other parents, gain a better understanding of the school and make lifelong friendships. To volunteer online, visit www.havergal.on.ca/volunteer or email volunteer@havergal.on.ca.
