Our Community
Huntley Centennial P.S. is located in the Village of Carp. While the village was historically agricultural, the peacefulness and the beauty of the area have attracted many former urban dwellers, providing growth to the community and greater diversity to its makeup. The Carp Fair is a big event for everyone and attracts visitors from across the region. Teachers and students engage in work such as art projects, writing, and poetry that they enter into various competitions at the Fair.
We welcome volunteers in our school. Parents, grandparents and community volunteers participate in school activities, such as student reading, fundraising events, field trips, sporting events, to name a few.
The Huntley Centennial School Council is an enthusiastic volunteer group of parents, teachers and administrators, dedicated to strengthening educational opportunities and partnerships with the community.
