people in a student’s immediate community outside of their normal commitments. For example, if a student usually gardens for his grandparents, this would not be considered Service. However, if the student has never gardened for a grandparent and this is outside of his usual commitments or chores, then he would record that as a Non-Core Service activity.

Core hours are those completed for external agencies such as Red Cross and Saint Vincent de Paul, or activities such as City to Surf and Relay for Life.
