International Women’s Day Walk

On Friday, March 4th, our Community Service Team organized a “Community Day” in honour of International Women’s Day. All students, faculty and staff participated in the Community Day, which included a fundraiser for Care Canada and a reflective walk.

Just prior to the walk, the Senior School held an assembly which featured a reading of Audre Lorde’s poem “A Litany of Survival”, and an original work by Tammy, Gr. 10, called “What Does it Mean to Be a Woman?” Following the assembly, the whole school warmed up on the field. The Grade 11 and 12s were once again paired up with their Grade 1-3 “buddy” for the walk.

Watch the video below from Care Canada to see why we are “walking in her shoes”.

Tiger Talks with Ken Coates (video)

TigerTalks_600pxThank you for making our first Tiger Talks a success! Dr. Ken Coates‘ presentation on the Future Uncertain: How Do I Prepare My Children for the Rest of the 21st Century? was highly engaging and gave us plenty of ‘food for thought’.

Here is a video of the full presentation, followed by the Q & A.

Stay tuned for more information on our next speaker, Ross Laird.
