Welcome, Canterbury Grandparents!
As grandparents, we are so fortunate to play a role in our grandchildren’s lives at Canterbury School. Whether we live near or far from our grandchildren, we have the opportunity to participate in the unique educational experiences they enjoy by being involved as grandparents at Canterbury.
We encourage you to become a member of the Grandparents Circle (GPC) at Canterbury. GPC membership is free, and members receive invitations to special events in addition to our traditional Grandparent and Grandfriends Days; access to periodic newsletters, and benefits such as access to Cougar Vision where you can watch art performances and athletics from afar.
Becoming a member of the GPC is a great way to connect to Canterbury; enjoy the camaraderie of fellow grandparents, and support the school. We have many wonderful events planned and look forward to you joining us.
We look forward to connecting with you throughout the coming year. Again, welcome to the Canterbury family!
Sincerely,
Lynn and Lory Kirby GP '31, ‘33
Grandparents Circle Chairs
P.S. - Please note many of the Grandparent Circle events are scheduled for the cooler months. That said, there is always activity on campus - a school play, musical, athletic event, or special assembly - grandparents and grandfriends are always welcome to join us!

Grandfriends at Canterbury!
We love welcoming grandparents and grandfriends to campus throughout the year. Whether joining us for storytime, classroom activities, or special events, these visits create meaningful moments that strengthen the connection between home and school.
Spending time together on campus allows our students to share their Canterbury experience with the people who support them most. We are grateful to all of our grandparents and grandfriends who take part in school life and help make these moments so special.
Join the Canterbury Grandparents Community!
It’s free! Plus, you get access to special events, periodic e-newsletters and Cougar Vision Content.
