Volunteering at The York School

One of the driving forces of The York School’s success is the highly talented group of volunteers who dedicate their expertise and time in support of the School.

Led by The York School Parents’ Association (YPA), our parent volunteers create a sense of community among families and supplement the School’s programs with events.

There is a wide range of opportunities for parent involvement. You can get involved as a Class Parent, or participate in ongoing events and activities such as parent parties, Treats for Teachers and class trips. There are also individual events such as Pancake Breakfast, Halloween, movie nights, a second-hand uniform sale and school socials. Volunteers also support school events like Grandpals’ and Special Friends Day, Sports Day and more!

We hope you will get involved!
