Building Connection and Community

The Crofton House Winter Bazaar is a cherished annual tradition that brings together CHS students, staff, parents and alumnae in support of local organizations. 

Each fall, the Bazaar stalls are filled with handmade crafts, delicious food, products from student entrepreneurs, alumnae-crafted jams, and unique gifts for the community to enjoy. 

The first Bazaar took place on May 26, 1944, to support the Senior School Junior Red Cross during World War II.  Today, the Bazaar celebrates the efforts, creativity, and collaboration of our community, with the CHS Parents' Auxiliary playing an instrumental role in organizing the event. 

The proceeds from the 2024 Winter Bazaar supported two of the School’s community partners, the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre and Women Leaders of Tomorrow—organizations dedicated to creating empowering environments for women and driving meaningful change. Both organizations actively support opportunities for purposeful student learning at CHS. 

The selection process for the 2025 Winter Bazaar partners will begin in spring 2025.
