Parents are partners at UCC! We value the support and collaboration of our parent community as we engage with prospective and new parents at the College. The Admissions team is looking for Parent Ambassadors to help us welcome our newest families.
UCC Parent Ambassadors will be assigned 2–3 new families to support by providing tips and answering questions. Parent Ambassadors also support UCC's Open House and admission events as greeters and hosts.
Please complete this Google Form to express your interest in being a resource for new families as they navigate their journey at the College.
A Zoom training session will be held from 7–8 p.m. on April 29. Training and materials will be provided.
We're looking forward to another Community Reads session on Thursday, May 8, from 6–7 p.m. This event will take place in the Macintosh Library at the Upper School. Please register here.
A PO and PPO initiative, we are encouraging any and all UCC parents/guardians to pick up a copy of The Tech Solution by Canadian Harvard-trained psychiatrist Dr. Shimi Kang.
Dr. Kang is an expert in the area of technology and psychology and shares many useful insights for parenting in the digital age in her book. The book is available at Indigo or online from Dr. Kang. We look forward to seeing you there for a rich and meaningful discussion!
We need your support to make this year’s Staff Appreciation Lunch a success!
A time-honoured tradition at UCC, the Staff Appreciation Lunch is our school community’s way of thanking all the different staff who help make our students’ experience at the College so remarkable. This includes teachers, administration, arena staff, housekeeping, food services and support staff. Approximately 350 staff will attend the lunch on Wednesday, May 28 in the Foster Hewitt Foundation Lounge.
The Staff Appreciation Lunch is fully funded by parent donations, so please contribute to this wonderful event for all of our UCC staff by donating here.
Thank you so much for your support!
