Grade 9 Job Shadow Day (or Take Your Kid to Work Day) at TOH gives Grade 9 students a chance to visit exciting parts of the Hospital by participating in a tour or by shadowing either a parent or other TOH employee. Students obtain a realistic view of our workplace and begin to understand the challenges and opportunities within health care.

Once again, we will be hosting our Grade 9 Virtual event! To participate, students will need to complete the registration form no later than October 26. Event information, including links, will be sent out to the students by no later than October 27.
