Please note there is limited space, so please be sure to claim your ad space in the book as soon as possible! All ad orders MUST be placed by June 1. Please do not contact or send materials to the school, the ads are all done through the Jostens website.
Spring Gryphon Sale Tally: Thank you to everyone who donated uniform items and joined us at last Wednesday's Gryphon Sale. Thanks to your generous clothing donations and to all of you who joined us bright and early at the sale, we raised $4121.00 for the Nancy Pitfield Endowment fund which is used to offer a one-year partial bursary to a student in Grade 7. The next Gryphon Sale is slated for September 4, details to follow. We are extremely low on stock, so please continue to drop off any gently used uniform articles you may have in the bins located just inside the front door of the school. Thank you!
Pre-U News: Congratulations to the inaugural Pre-University Class on their outstanding achievements and for paving the way for future cohorts. Their hard work, commitment to academics, and contributions to the school community have earned them places at prestigious universities in a wide variety of competitive programs. To date, these pioneering students have received a combined total of 80 offers of admission, with every student securing at least one early offer or acceptance into their first-choice program. The graduating class has been awarded over $550,000 CAD in merit-based scholarships and bursaries, exemplifying the academic depth and breadth of the program, the strength of varsity athletics, and the student leadership opportunities that Selwyn House provides.
