During the year, there are various ways that TFS students can develop their leadership skills.

In Grade 5, students from Toronto and Mississauga attend a popular overnight camp at Bark Lake in Haliburton. The camp is designed to promote leadership skills, teamwork opportunities and an emphasis on ecological stewardship.

In Mississauga, students from Grades 4 and 5 can volunteer to join P.A.L.S. (Playground Activity Leaders in School) and then receive training. This playground leadership program encourages all children to participate in activities regardless of their gender, size or ability. The goals are to increase physical activity, prevent bullying, and provide leadership opportunities for students.

Student government opportunities are available at the Senior School:
Conseil des Délégués (Grade 6 – 7) – members from each Toronto Grade 6 & 7 class are elected by students and the group:

• acts as liaison between students, teachers and administration;
• meets weekly with teachers to work on their agenda;
• contributes to the life of the school community;
• suggests and plans events and campaigns, e.g., fundraising; and
• contributes to assemblies.
  
  Prefect Council – elected and selected by students and staff, these student leaders head most of the major clubs and student organizations at the Senior School. They meet regularly for leadership training and planning of events. The 16 positions are filled by Level IV and V students.
  
  Student Council (Level I – V) – elected by students, the Student Council plans major events to enhance student life and works with the school administration to address issues of importance to the school community.
  
  WEB - Where Everybody Belongs is the peer mentorship program led by selected Level I and II students who welcome new students to the senior school with special activities on Orientation Day and throughout the school year. The WEB leaders undergo specific leadership training to prepare them for this important role.
  
  Annual TFS Student Leadership Retreat
  Student leaders are invited to attend the annual retreat. A full day of activities are planned to develop leadership skills and participation in valuable brainstorming and planning sessions.
