Crofton House School  

A spry and lively Crofton House School celebrated its 115th birthday in March, and there was no shortage of goings-on to honour the occasion. Along with the Alumnae Association's AGM and Luncheon, Lauren Wilkinson '07 was awarded the Association's achievement award. We had the pleasure of interviewing her, along with Alumnae Association executive president, Dr. Christine (Wong) Applegarth '92. We also talked to some members of the class of 2003, a group that has the rare distinction of having produced a full fifteen graduates who went on to either medicine or dentistry!
