Volunteer at the Winter Bazaar
In ten days, we open our doors to the broader community and welcome them to share some CHS spirit at the Winter Bazaar. There are still many volunteer positions open. We can’t make this day a success without you! Whether it’s an hour, or two, or three, we need all hands on deck; please signup to volunteer. It’s a chance to spend time with other CHS families all while raising funds for KidSafe. Check out the volunteer opportunities in the Winter Bazaar section below

The production highlights all of your favourite characters – Jack and his beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, and more in this lyrically-rich retelling of the classic fables. You will meet the Baker and his wife, who wishes to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King's festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse and wind up changed forever. Purchase your ticket today.
