#BVGAlumni Reunion 2022 – A Great Success
AlumniOn Friday, May 27, the Alumni Association celebrated our Alumni Reunion 2022, making it our first in-person event since the return to the Moatfield Campus after COVID-19. Alumni spanning from the classes of 1991 to 2022 returned to the Daunt Dining Hall to visit with faculty and staff, both current and retired. This year’s celebration was in recognition of the classes of 1992, 2002, 2007, 2012 and 2017 for their milestone reunions with participants coming into town from across the country. Over the course of the evening, alumni and staff reminisced on their past days at Bayview Glen while having the opportunity to look through old yearbooks, win door prizes, listen to live music and reconnect. We are so happy to welcome back our alumni and look forward to seeing everyone again at future events!

Career Breakfast on Social Justice and Advocacy
Alumni, BVG News, Prep School, Upper School
On Tuesday, March 1, Olivia Nightingale ’08 and Christina Crisostomo ’09 joined as alumni speakers at our last virtual Career Breakfast of this school year and shared their insights in the Social Justice and Advocacy industry with our current students and parents from the Prep and Upper School community.
Olivia shared her career trajectory with us. It’s inspiring to see the impact that she is making with civil political rights and humanitarian response internationally. We particularly liked the advice that she would like to pass onto our current students – say yes, ask for help, disrupt the status quo and rest to avoid burnout. Thank you, Christina, for showing us that advocacy can come in many forms, including corporate responsibility. As Christina encouraged the students – start right now, take advantage of opportunities, align your skills/interests with your passions, take care of yourself, and use your values/passions to guide you both in and outside of work. No matter what profession our students decide to pursue, these are great tips for everyone to keep in mind.
Thank you to Olivia and Christina for their involvement and support of our school community. All three virtual Career Breakfasts were great successes and featured inspirational alumni speakers.
If you are interested in being an alumni speaker at future Career Breakfast events, please contact alumni@bayviewglen.ca.
