2009 Graduation
ALUMNI

In June 2004, Mulgrave School graduated its first grade 12 class since the school opened in 1993. With this first graduating class came of course our first group of Mulgrave Alumni. 

Graduates of Mulgrave School have flourished and gone on to many different parts of the world to work and study.  Students have gone abroad, to the United States, to eastern Canada and some have remained here in British Columbia. Many students have kept us up to date on their whereabouts and what they have accomplished to date. It is wonderful to hear of all the news and the superb achievements that the Mulgrave Alumni have accomplished.  


Spot light on: 

Sarah Fenwick (2005)

Here is a little update on what I have been doing........

 

I graduated from Queens last spring and have taken a 6 month break from school. I have been in Africa for the past four and a half months. I spent four months in Tanzania volunteering at a small women and children's clinic in Arusha. I went through Basecamp International Centers which is based out of Kingston, Ontario. They are a great organization if any students are looking for volunteers placements once they have graduated (http://www.facebook.com/l/ad3d6;www.basecampcenters.com). While in Arusha I was lucky enough to venture out on weekend trips, I went to Zanzibar Island, Safari through Terengeri, Ngorogoro and the Serengeti, and I traveled to Uganda on my last weekend to raft the Nile.

These past two weeks I have been in Cape Town visiting Nolo and exploring the area. Jessica Hardie flew over and met us for the two weeks it has been great catching up with both of them.

I must say that I have had the greatest time in Tanzania, it is making it hard for me to leave the continent of Africa. Our trip to Kenya had me longing to come back, and Tanzania has finally hooked me. I am starting nursing school at BCIT in January which will keep me tied down for a few more years, but I am already looking at career opportunities that can bring me back to Africa (I think Rwanda is next). I have been keeping a blog while I have been away, it is rather long now, but if you are interested feel free to have a look through! (http://www.facebook.com/l/ad3d6;sltanzania.blogspot.com)

I have 2 more days in Cape Town and then I am off to Toronto, I will be sure to pop into Mulgrave when I get back into Vancouver.

Alexandre Curaudeau (2006) 

 

Alexandre dropped in to visit Mulgrave this past summer, catching us up on his latest adventures.  Currently attending the University of Michigan, Alex is studying Aerospace Engineering.  His studies have been going extremely well, and he has come to greatly appreciate the power of calculus!  Alex’s excitement was very evident as he told us about his involvement in Michigan’s solar car team.  Over 150 students work together to design, construct and develop a solar car to race in the World Solar Challenge.  Read More...

Brandon Ayers went five months without taking a hot shower.

But that didn't stop the 18-year-old from helping out children in need in Kathmandu, Nepal.

A resident of West Vancouver and a 2007 graduate of Mulgrave School, Ayers embarked on a year-long mission to South East Asia in July 2007, during which he volunteered for several aid organizations and sought to have a positive influence on people in need.  Read More...
