Co-Curricular Program at Pickering College

(Grades 7 to 12)

The school year is divided into four co-curricular terms. Students in Grade 7 to 10 must participate in a co-curricular activity every term. Students in Grade 11 may take one term off, and Grade 12 students may take two terms off, although many will choose to participate in all terms. Most activities will take place from 3:15 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Competitive athletic practices in Grade 7 to 12 may take place in the morning before classes, or after the regular co-curricular block for some teams. Athletic competitions may occur as scheduled anytime during the afternoon.
