Welcome to the final edition of 1898 for the 2019-2020 school year. It almost goes without saying that this has been a busy and challenging school year. Nothing has been conventional and it has been exciting to see how the girls, the School and the alumnae have been creative in meeting many new challenges head on! We hope you enjoy reading about your fellow alumnae. We are not setting dates for alumnae events next year at this time but will stay in touch with you as plans are developed under Ministry guidelines. Enjoy your summer! Message from Lydia (McNeill) Vandenberg ‘85
The school 2019-2020 school year has been one full of changes and challenges. It is a year that has given us as a school and each of us as individuals the opportunity to learn how we can do things better. What is our personal lens through which we view the world? How can we change that lens to ensure that we are helping move the world forward in a way that embraces all, gives voice to those who are marginalized and educates our future leaders to be compassionate and brave? Q&A with Ena Harrop, Head of School
We took this end of year opportunity to sit down with Head of School, Ena Harrop to ask a few questions about her experiences in her first year at Crofton House School. Alumnae in the Making – 2020 Vision
Once again, we are delighted to welcome our newest alumnae to our community. The Class of 2020 will go down in CHS history for facing world-wide challenges head on as they completed their time as a student at Crofton House School. They share this distinction with the Class of 1918 who graduated amidst the influenza pandemic that also saw the closing of schools (and borders quarantined at the school with the ‘mistresses’ turning from teacher to nurse). A very different future awaits this class as they venture off to the new challenges of virtual learning and some in class experience at universities around the world. We welcome these new alumnae and wish them the very best! As part of the graduation tradition, we are pleased to include the valedictory address of Head Girl, Amanda Lee ’20 and a listing of the post-secondary institutions our graduates will be attending in the coming years. CHS in the time of COVID-19
We have had many questions about how Crofton House continued to deliver different types of classes during these changing times. We have also had many of you reaching out from various cities and continents sharing your experiences these past few months. Alumnae are proving to be resourceful, caring and proactive in meeting needs within their own communities. We hope you enjoy reading about some of the highlights of this adapted-learning environment and some of the stories of how alumnae are caring for others. Stay Connected
