'Tis the season to come together as a community and enjoy food, music, performances, and wonderful company! We look forward to sharing many memorable moments with you throughout the month of December.
The annual Baking Buffet is one of our favourite days of the year. Faculty and staff genuinely appreciate the time and effort of our parents.
The buffet will take place on December 6th from 10:00am to 1:00pm. The MVP needs more volunteers to bake and help out with event activities. Click the links to get involved:
Our Senior School cast members have been working hard rehearsing for this year's production, The Children's Hour. It would mean a great deal to them to have the support of our community at their play.
The Children's Hour was written in 1934, but the story is even more relevant today. The students will bring to life the devastating consequences of gossip and rumours.
We hope you and your family can join us for this thought-provoking performance.
Join us for our annual Grad Christmas Tree Sale and Winter Wonderland!
All families are invited to come and pick out a holiday tree, sit on Santa's knee, decorate cookies, and enjoy hot chocolate. All proceeds go towards the purchase of the Grad Legacy gift.
Please note: Pre-order sales have closed, and only trees will be available for sale tomorrow by cash or cheque.
Students are busily preparing musical presentations in class, choirs, and bands for the upcoming holiday season performances, which we hope will add to the spirit of the season! This year, all winter concerts have 'snow' as a unifying theme, which will be showcased in the repertoire presented. All parents are warmly invited to attend the concerts.

The Night of the Notables is a long-standing tradition for the Grade 8s. Students will be highlighting their understanding of a notable — a historical or contemporary figure who made (or is making) an impact. They will be in character, taking on the role of a person of note on stage and beyond. This year's theme is 'Think Tank' to address the pressing issue of how we can change the world.
You are all invited to attend the evening and show your support for our students, while also voting for the 'Notable of the Year'! #NOTN17

We're rolling out the red carpet for a special evening to celebrate the amazing, artistic talent of our young filmmakers at Mulgrave and across the province. Join us for our 18th annual ZOOM Film Festival Awards Night on Saturday, December 2nd at 6:30pm in the Linda Hamer Theatre.
On Oct. 19th, 106 teams of students started an intense weekend when they were assigned a prop (stamp) and theme ('A Blessing in Disguise') and were expected to write, shoot, and produce a film in just 48 hours.
Three teams from Mulgrave have been nominated to receive an award, and more than $100,000 will be awarded on Saturday! This event is free. Click here to RSVP
All families are welcome to join us for a unique carolling experience on the streets of Gastown as Mulgrave's Chamber Choir, and dozens of other local choirs, perform new and classic songs in a variety of styles. Sing along as the best in show go head-to-head in a series of sing-offs and cheer on Mulgrave as they compete for awards from celebrity judges. The event is free, but you can make a donation to benefit May's Place Hospice in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside.

Every year during the holiday season, the ELC staff and students hold a 'Mitten Tree Drive'. The Mitten Tree is a fundraising event that encourages families to hang new or handmade mittens, scarves, and/or hats on our ELC Christmas Tree. All items will be donated to a local shelter where children in need will be able to keep warm over the chilly winter months.
The tree will be located in the upstairs ELC and will begin on Monday, Dec. 4th. We encourage all families to help with the drive. Thank you!
Please join us at Mulgrave for the annual Alumni Basketball Game & Winter Social on Thursday, December 21st at 6:00pm. There will be basketball battles, a photo booth, tasty appetizers, beer, and holiday cheer! We look forward to seeing you and your family return to the school for the most beloved alumni event of the year.
