Mothers’ Guild

Volunteer

Founded in 1985, the Mothers' Guild is celebrating 25 years! We are a parent organization composed of an executive, which meets monthly, and a membership at large, which includes all mothers in the school, many of whom volunteer to help at Mother’s Guild events and school activities. We hold monthly meetings open to all mothers of Villa students.

Objectives and Goals

  • To promote a community spirit among parents, teachers, students and administration
  • To distribute bursaries and scholarships to top-ranking students and most improved students
  • To organize events throughout the year that bring parents and girls together for fun, sharing and fund-raising
  • To help purchase teachers' wish list items and / or help finance field trips
