Programs

Co-Curriculars

Join the Club!

At Trafalgar, “co-curriculars” aren’t just an add-on, after-thought, or luxury: they are considered an integral part of our program. Participation in clubs, teams, and committees is one of the core tenets of Traf’s vision for individual growth. Check out some of our clubs below!

List of 11 items.

  • Art Club

    Art club is an activity that is open to everyone! Students are welcome to come to the art room, use the materials & tools, and do their own creative work. There is no need to audition, try out, or sign up.
  • Book Club

    Calling all bookworms! Join this team and compete against local schools in a heated clash that will test your knowledge about today’s most-loved young adult page-turners. Bragging rights for the winner.
  • Choir

    Show off your pipes as a member of our choir. Every week, Traf’s collective of vocalists meets to bring a capella versions of pop, folk, classical, and gospel tunes to life. Two large performances take place every year, along with lots of smaller opportunities in between!
  • Debate Club

    The debating team is a beacon for those who want to share their big ideas. Twice a week, junior- and senior-level orators come together to volley opinions, become prolific public speakers, and eventually participate in tournaments both locally and abroad.
  • Girls for the Cure

    Girls for the Cure brings together over 2,000 students from Montreal girls’ school to walk to Molson Stadium at McGill, raising awareness and funds for women-related cancers.

    Every year Junior girls (Grades 7 & 8) have the opportunity to be in a production that they perform for the school and the public in the late Fall.

Our team participates in local conferences as well as meet-ups abroad, going head to head with high school, CEGEP, and university students. The choice is yours: forums include world events, historical happenings, and topics based on popular lit.
  • Senior Band

    The Senior Band is comprised of all students in Music III, IV, and V. This ensemble meets weekly both during forum time and after school, rehearsing a variety of fun and challenging repertoire to be performed at school concerts and events, as well as competitions and festivals. Every second year, Senior Band members participate in a music trip. Past trips have included New York City, Boston, Halifax, and Orlando.

  • CLUB DE JARDINAGE

    Les élèves qui y font partie peuvent être fières du travail accompli depuis la création du club, en septembre dernier. Notre but est de créer un milieu propice aux pollinisateurs, notamment au papillon monarque, dans la cour de notre école, sans brusquer l’équilibre qui y règne déjà. À ce jour, Rachel, Nadia, Lena, Elsa, Emily, Kara, Joanna, Rachel, et Tatiana; ont appris à observer le terrain, faire un relevé des différentes espèces végétales qui s’y trouvent, lire les fiches descriptives des plantes, choisir un terrain propice, trier des semences de plantes indigènes, faire un plan de jardin et semer une plante qui a besoin de stratification. Bref, c’est bien parti! Nous remercions la Fondation David Suzuki pour la formation  dont bénéficie Mme Fanzone, une patrouilleuse du papillon monarque certifiée.

  • SECONDARY V TRIP

    The Sec Vs had a fantastic first week of school last week with their trip to Niagara Falls and Toronto! Between a boat ride to the base of the falls, a magic show, exploring the ocean at Ripley's Aquarium, and a (cloudy) visit to the top of the CN Tower, there was plenty of excitement! Not to mention exploring the CNE, the ROM, and getting many, many steps in while exploring downtown Toronto. We had many shared meals, shared jokes and lots of laughter, and made memories that will last the year.
