As a registered nonprofit, Selkirk Montessori relies on the generosity and involvement of our community to keep doing what we do. Whether you have time, talent, or resources to share, there are many ways to make a difference. Every bit of support goes directly toward enriching the experience for our students.
Make a Donation
Financial gifts help us invest in bursaries, facility upgrades, and enrichment opportunities that go beyond what tuition covers. As a registered nonprofit, the Pacific Montessori Society can issue tax receipts for eligible donations.
Whether it's a one-time gift or an ongoing contribution, every donation makes a real impact on our students' learning experience. You may also be eligible for donation matching through your employer.
Volunteer Your Time
Selkirk is built on community involvement. There are plenty of ways to lend a hand throughout the school year, from helping with field studies and classroom activities to supporting school events and special projects. Volunteering is also a wonderful way to get to know the school, the staff, and other families.
Join the Selkirk Parent Group
The Selkirk Parent Group (SPG) is the heart of our parent community. The SPG organizes fundraising events, social gatherings, and community-building activities throughout the year. All caregivers are automatically members, and there are always opportunities to get involved, whether you can commit to a regular role or just want to pitch in for a single event.
Serve on the Board
Selkirk is governed by the Pacific Montessori Society, and our Board of Directors is made up of parent volunteers who serve three-year terms. If you're interested in school governance, strategic planning, and helping shape the future of Selkirk, the Board is a meaningful way to contribute.
Spread the Word
Sometimes the simplest way to support Selkirk is to tell people about us. If your family has had a positive experience, share it with friends, neighbours, or anyone who might be looking for a school. Word of mouth from our community is one of the most powerful ways we grow.
Other Ways to Help
There are always needs popping up throughout the year, from donating supplies and materials to sharing professional expertise or community connections. If you have something to offer that doesn't fit neatly into the categories above, we'd love to hear from you.
