A Season of Growth and Gratitude
Bayview Glen News, Newsletters and Publications, The Glen
Written by James Lee,
Head of School
It feels like just yesterday we were welcoming new and returning students and staff to Bayview Glen, and already the halls and fields are filled with the rhythm of another busy and exciting school year.
From spirited sports games and cross-country meets to play rehearsals, picture days, grade breakfasts, celebrations, and important days of recognition and reflection, there’s an unmistakable energy in the air. I want to thank all of you — our students, staff, faculty, and families — for the time, enthusiasm, and heart you bring to Bayview Glen every day. You are the fabric of this community, and I couldn’t be prouder of the way you lift one another up and make this such a special place to learn and grow.
Our enrolment is strong this year at 1,150 students, and with that growth comes exciting progress. Over the summer and into the fall, tremendous strides have been made on our New Build. The defining features of the gymnasium and indoor aquatics centre are now taking shape, with exterior work continuing through December. As we move into 2026, we’ll see the finishing touches — painting, flooring, and pool tiling — bringing this extraordinary project to life.
This project is about more than a new building. It represents expanded opportunities for our students in athletics, wellness, health, and community connection. It’s a tangible expression of our mission: Whole Child. Purposeful Life. Better World. and reflects our ongoing commitment to creating spaces where every student can thrive physically, emotionally, and intellectually.
Equally important to our growth as a school is our continued focus on wellbeing. In October, our staff and faculty participated in professional development centred on mental health first aid, aligning with our third strategic pillar: Nurturing Belonging and Wellbeing. This shared learning reminds us that our strength as a community lies not only in what we achieve but also in how we care for one another.
As we approach the mid-term break, I hope that everyone finds a chance to rest, recharge, and spend time with family and friends. Thank you once again for your partnership, your passion, and your belief in what we are building together.
Wishing you all a restorative and joy-filled break.
Respectfully,
James Lee
Head of School
A Space for Belonging and Wellbeing: Shaping our Inclusive Community

Written by Ryan Rodrigues,
Executive Director, Advancement and External Relations
Bayview Glen recently hosted a consultative session to explore the creation of a dedicated space for belonging and wellbeing. This initiative reflects our commitment to nurturing inclusive environments where students feel seen, heard, and supported.
The session invited families, students, alumni, and staff to share ideas for a space that encourages quiet reflection, spiritual pluralism, and shared wellbeing. Together, we imagined a place where empathy, curiosity, and respectful dialogue are part of everyday life.
This work is part of a broader effort to strengthen our culture of belonging. If you’d like to support this initiative or offer further feedback, we welcome your voice – and your generosity.

Courage in Action – The Outdoor Leadership Journey at Bayview Glen
Written by Charlotte M.,
Grade 12 Co-Head of Student Executive Council
I have been fortunate to be a part of the Bayview Glen community, where I have had a number of valuable experiences and opportunities to grow and develop. Some of the most memorable experiences have been our Upper School outdoor education trips.
Reflecting on my time at camp, I was challenged beyond my comfort zone. Whether it was canoeing, rock climbing, or building fires in the middle of winter, it instilled a sense of confidence not just in me, but in everyone around me.
Each outdoor success, even the small ones, proved that we could handle more than we thought possible. Every activity strengthened our teamwork and collaboration while also developing the leader in each of us, as we all found opportunities to lead in our own way.
Those moments of challenge and teamwork encouraged me to take on new responsibilities back at school, ultimately giving me the confidence to run for the position of House Head in Grade 11 and then Co-Head of Council in Grade 12.
Most importantly, these experiences deepened my sense of belonging within the Bayview Glen community. Working together toward common goals and supporting one another through challenges, reminds me that true belonging comes from shared effort, trust, and knowing that every voice matters.
Coming back to school after outdoor education, we felt like we were part of something bigger than ourselves; our grade had grown closer together through special moments that went far beyond the regular classroom.
Those lessons continue to shape my views, valuing collaboration over competition, empathy over judgement, and striving to help others feel that same sense of community and belonging that the outdoor education trips have given me.
Leading with Heart – Student Leadership at the Upper School
Written by Greg Winson,
Faculty Advisor to the Student Executive Council
The Student Executive Council (SEC) is the driving force behind school spirit and community at our school. Made up of passionate student leaders, the SEC works to bring fresh ideas to life — whether it’s planning exciting events, promoting collaboration, or creating opportunities for everyone to get involved. Through our weekly meetings, student representatives brainstorm, organize, and lead initiatives that make our school a more vibrant and connected place.
With the guidance and support of our dedicated faculty advisors, the SEC has successfully hosted a wide range of activities including movie nights, school dances, spirit weeks, house leagues, and coffee houses. Each event is designed to celebrate our school community, encourage participation, and give students a chance to make lasting memories.
As we continue to grow, the SEC remains committed to listening to student voices and building on our tradition of fun, inclusive, and creative events — making every year better than the last.
The Path Here – The Path Ahead: Commitment to Truth and Reconciliation

Written by Erika Gillespie, Greg Ryerson, and L-J van ‘t Hof,
Directors of Teaching and Learning
On September 30, Bayview Glen came together to observe the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It was a meaningful opportunity for our school community to reflect on the history of what we now call Canada, honour Indigenous voices, and renew our ongoing commitment to reconciliation. This year also marked ten years since the release of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action, which continue to inform and guide our work.
We embraced the theme “The Path Here – The Path Ahead,” and continued our tradition of gathering as a whole school. Older students were paired with younger ones to share poetry from Richard Wagamese’s “Embers – One Ojibway’s Meditation.” These poems encouraged us all to listen deeply and think about our role in building understanding and respect. After sharing the poems, the, students shouted their personal commitments to reconciliation out to the universe, then tied biodegradable ribbons onto the Lower School fence. These ribbons served as a visual reminder of their promises. As they begin to fade and degrade, we will use that as a sign to revisit and recommit to our ongoing work.
Throughout the year, we continue to explore Indigenous history and perspectives in our classrooms. We want all of our students to feel empowered to ask questions, learn, and take action. As we reflect on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour the path we’ve travelled and look ahead to the journey still to come – together, as a community committed to truth, respect, and reconciliation.

Full of heart, humour, and a healthy dose of creepy spirit, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow promises to be an unforgettable experience. Join us in the J.T.M. Guest Theatre at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 5, 2026 for a night of ghostly fun and discover what really happens when the Headless Horseman rides again!

Day 9 Through the Eyes of Grade 2 Students
Rosamund W., Grade 2 Student
I felt great about Day 9. First, we went to the library to get an introduction. Next, we made adventure journals. We put magazines, stamps, and flower stamps in our books. Then we had cheese pizza and veggies for lunch.
Then we went outside to play games. First, we played a game called “Find My Tree.” Next, we played a challenge. It was called the Flagpole Challenge. Then we ate snack. Our snack was granola and fruit. Then we had a marble challenge. Last, we played a game called Rock, Paper, Scissors Army Game.
This was my Day 9. I hope you enjoyed it! I can’t wait for another Day 9. My favourite activity was the adventure journals.
Nora P., Grade 2 Student
I felt really great about Day 9 because I was so happy. First, we went to the library to see what we were doing on Day 9. Then we went back to the classroom to do the activity. We made adventure journals. We cut out pictures from magazines and nature books. My favorite part was making the adventure journals. I already made another one at home.
Then we ate pizza and veggies for lunch. Then we went outside to play a couple of games. First, we heard a story. Then we played a game called “Find My Tree.” We had to be blindfolded and our partner had to lead us to a tree. It was exciting and fun to try this. I really liked hanging out with my friend and having fun, especially playing Rock, Paper, Scissors Army Game where the people who lost had to go behind the winner and cheer them on for their next games. I had a really fun day!
ReconciliACTION in Action: How Prep Students Are Leading Change
Nicole Blair, Dean of Student Life, Prep School
Friday, October 17, marked the Prep School’s first Day 9 (Flex Day). A dedicated day designed to deepen learning beyond the classroom, strengthen community, and promote holistic growth. With a full day of meaningful programming, students and staff came together to explore history, culture, and the power of taking action.
The morning began with the entire Prep School visiting Young People’s Theatre to see The Mush Hole, a powerful production exploring hope, resilience, and the enduring impact of residential schools. Students were moved by the performance, which used expressive movement and emotion to convey the physical and emotional pain endured by Indigenous children and their families.
Keegan R. (Grade 8 student) reflected, “I was able to see and better understand how traumatic residential schools were”. Others reflected on the show’s broader message, seeing it as a reminder to prevent Canada from repeating this tragic history. Across grades, students left the theatre with a lasting sense of empathy and awareness, ready to engage meaningfully in reconciliation. In the afternoon, the learning continued with ReconciliACTION activities, allowing students to extend their learning and take meaningful action towards reconciliation through dance, art, drama, poetry, outdoor learning, and more.
William R. (Grade 8 student) shared insights from a field trip to Biidaasige Park (“bee-daw-sihgeh,” meaning sunlight shining toward us), “We took action towards ReconciliACTION by acknowledging that the land we were on was designed by Indigenous people. We also saw several wooden animal sculptures created by First Nations (an owl, a beaver, etc.). Reconciliation is about co-operating with Indigenous people, therefore, by sharing and respecting this park they created, we are doing so”.
Grade 6 student, Cara H., participated in a Planting Native Species workshop, reflecting, “This is important because it helps restore ecosystems damaged by colonialism, rebuild relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people, and uphold the cultural and spiritual significance of the land for Indigenous communities”.
Day 9 also strengthened connection and community across the Prep School. Brooklyn T. (Grade 7 student) eloquently summarized the day, “Day 9 built community in the Prep School because it helped us better understand the importance of reconciliation and the role we can each play in it. This day encouraged empathy, awareness, and respect within our school. Engaging in our Day 9 also gave us a shared experience that brought our school closer”.
Through learning, reflection, and meaningful action, the Prep School Community took an important step in understanding Canada’s history and embracing its role in reconciliation, appreciating the time and space Day 9 provided to do so.
Upper School's Day 9 Experience: A Focus on Belonging and Wellbeing
Troy Hammond, Dean of Student Life, Upper School
On Friday, October 17, students and faculty in the Upper School participated in the inaugural Day 9 Flex Day. The development of programming for this day began with consideration of those things that align with our School’s strategic priorities and meet the needs of our students. Input was sought from students based around the prompt, “If I had more time in the day, I would…,” and the responses were definitive.
What became very clear is that high school students feel that they do not get enough sleep, want more time for connection with friends (and/ or to make new friends), and that they are pulled in many directions, which impacts their ability to get schoolwork finished. The decision to then focus our Day 9 around belonging and wellbeing was born.
The goal for the day was to ensure that our students felt a genuine sense of belonging and purpose, were afforded meaningful opportunities to connect with each other and trusted adults, and left feeling refreshed as we moved into the middle part of the term. The schedule consisted of a late start and extended Mentor activities that included the opportunity for each group to think about the ways in which they can contribute meaningfully to their community – whether that be on a smaller scale within their Mentor group, the school, or the world outside of our walls. A highly engaging speaker, Dr. Barry Craig, who is the President of Huron University at Western, then addressed the students and invited them to pause and reflect on “Finding Happiness.” In the afternoon, a choice of wellness activities – ranging from chess, a creative station, dog therapy, use of the fitness room, meditation and mindfulness, a study hall and reading room, Zumba, and specialized post- secondary workshops for Grade 12s – provided the opportunity for replenishing the body, mind, and soul.
At the end of the day, students were invited to share reflective thoughts about Day 9 and post them on the Gratitude Wall outside of Alumni Hall. It was evident that our entire Upper School community appreciated the time to pause instruction so that we could take care of ourselves.
Prep School’s Core Four: Meet the Student Leaders Shaping the Year
Bayview Glen News, Newsletters and Publications, Prep School, The Glen
Written by Aiden L., Ariana G., Cara D., and Paolo E.,
Grade 8 Students
Hello Everyone! We are Aiden, Ariana, Cara, and Paolo and are happy to serve as this year’s Executive Team of the Prep School Student Council. Last year’s Core Four created our mission: “It is our goal to create a vibrant, inclusive, and fun space where student voice can be heard, spirit is encouraged, and purpose is a priority.” We are ready to uphold this mission and are excited to share our own perspectives on leadership.
Hi, I’m Aiden! I first joined Bayview Glen back in Grade 5, and I’m really excited to be a part of the Executive Committee this year! My mission is to ensure everyone feels included, involved, and safe, so that no one feels left out. I’ve participated on a sports team every term since I started here at Bayview Glen, and was in the Jazz and Concert Bands last year. I want to help build a space where everyone feels comfortable being themselves, open to new ideas, and truly welcome. We have a great year ahead of us. Let’s make it the best one yet!
Hi! My name is Ariana and I am thrilled to be one of the four heads of Student Council. Since joining Bayview Glen in Grade 4, I’ve been a part of numerous leadership opportunities, from speech contests to helping run New Family Orientation Evenings and now Student Council. These experiences have helped me grow as a leader. I know there’s a special kind of magic in creating something meaningful, and I hope to share that feeling with others in the Prep this year through inspiring leadership in others and creating more opportunities for student involvement within the school. I’m looking forward to a year at filled with leadership and growth!
Hi, I’m Cara, and I’m proud to serve as one of the Co-Heads of the Executive Team. My mission is to help students find their voice and feel confident sharing it. I’ve been at Bayview Glen for six years, and during that time, I’ve learned how much a supportive leader can empower others. I encourage everyone to speak their truth, even when it’s hard, and I strive to inspire my peers to believe in themselves. As Nelson Mandela once said, “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” I am dedicated to guiding, uplifting, and motivating others, creating a school community where every student feels heard, valued, and inspired to make a difference.
Hello, I’m Paolo and as one of your Heads of Student Council, I want to take some of the privileges that we are fortunate to have as members of an independent school and help extend them to the community around us. As I enter my 11th year at Bayview Glen, I have not just witnessed, but taken part in, many of the activities that we are given access to (for example, Gryphon Athletics, robotics, musical bands, etc.). I plan to use my previous experience on our Community Outreach Committee to further not just the direct needs of the students, but the wider community around them. I can’t wait for this year; let’s make it amazing, Prep!
We are lucky to have an amazing team behind us that includes and represents all aspects of Prep School life and look forward to making this year a memorable one.
Sincerely,
Aiden, Ariana, Cara, and Paolo
Co-Heads of Council, PSC
The Important Work of Growing: Honouring the Pace of Childhood
Bayview Glen News, Events, Newsletters and Publications, Preschool, The Glen
Written by Gillian Potts-Hemingway,
Director of Preschool
At Bayview Glen, our Reggio-inspired preschool programme reflects our belief that every child is capable, curious, and full of potential. Rooted in relationships and guided by inquiry, our educators create spaces where learning unfolds naturally. It is a learning environment where curiosity leads to discovery, and discovery builds confidence and joy. We honour the process of learning, knowing that meaningful growth happens when children are given the time, trust, and encouragement to learn by meeting them where they are.
This philosophy comes to life in our upcoming parent event featuring Lara Pierre, a registered social worker and child and family psychotherapist specializing in early development and family wellbeing. With warmth and insight, Lara will invite parents to pause, reflect, and embrace the wonder of early childhood, sharing a simple but important message that growth and resilience bloom through connection, empathy, and patience.
A quality early learning experience, like ours at Bayview Glen, nurtures not only essential skills but also a deep love of learning that lasts a lifetime. As our early learners continue to grow and journey through the school, we see the foundations built in the preschool years evolve right alongside them. We are helping to build the toolkit that will follow them throughout their lives, one that begins with nurturing that spark of wonder and curiosity.
We invite our parents and community to join us on November 20 as we slow down together to celebrate the beauty of childhood and the powerful learning that happens when we honour each child’s natural rhythm. We encourage you to share with your extended family and friends as this event is also open to families outside the Bayview Glen community as well. Find out more about the event and register below!
In Their Own Time: Honouring the Natural Pace of Early Childhood
Thursday, November 20, 2025
5:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Bayview Glen – J.T.M. Guest Theatre
Join us for a complimentary evening with Lara Pierre (MSW, RSW), Child & Family Psychotherapist and Certified Connected Parenting Practitioner to learn more about the natural unfolding of early childhood.
In a world that moves so fast, it’s easy to feel pressure to keep up, to teach more, do more, and plan for what’s next, yet children grow best when they are given time to explore, stumble, and wonder. Through compassionate reflection, courageous perspective, and curious insight, this keynote offers reassurance that when we honour each child’s unique pace, we nurture confidence, joy, and a lifelong love of learning.
Learning Without Borders: Bayview Glen’s Global Education Journey
Bayview Glen News, Newsletters and Publications, Prep School, The Glen, Upper School
Written by Dr. Angela Mantie,
Director of Global Education and Strategic Partnerships
Bayview Glen, Global Education is more than just a concept — it’s a mission. A mission to bring people together, foster understanding, and inspire students to take meaningful action toward a more just and equitable world through realworld, transformative field-based learning.
Launching this year, our Global Education Experiential programmes invite Prep students to explore through the theme Canada: Land as Teacher, Guided by Story. Upper School students will explore via a three-year cycle (the Americas, north-south and east-west) through Three Years, One Planet, Infinite Perspectives.
Guided by our strategic plan, students across all divisions will engage in transformational learning opportunities through two key platforms: Round Square Conferences and Bayview Glen Global Learning Experiences.
Round Square International Conference: Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
This September, Bayview Glen sent four leaders to Dubai, UAE. Joining over 1,000 students, 200 adults, and 170 schools, our delegates engaged in a dynamic series of experiences.
After a long 14-hour flight, our excitement was unmatched — not just to stretch our legs, but to finally have arrived in Dubai. We were warmly welcomed by students from the host schools of the conference. After settling in, we headed to sand dunes just outside of the city for a dinner of traditional Emirati cuisine, followed by a stunning fire dance and fireworks show. The next day, we continued to meet students from around the world, formed “baraza” groups for discussion and bonding, and experienced a dhow (boat) cruise with breathtaking views of the Burj Khalifa and Ain Dubai. The next couple of days were a bit more focused, with the Spirit of Environmentalism day including the making of natural pesticides and planting Ghaf trees. The Spirit of Service day included seva at a local gurudwara, and later participation in a souk (market) to raise funds for the development of a school in Nepal. The nights were always packed with exciting activities that pushed us to bond with the students around us, like the cultural night, where diversity was celebrated through performances from students representing many nations. Overall, the trip was an unforgettable experience that expanded our worldviews, fostered meaningful connections, and strengthened our adaptability, empathy, and global awareness.
Alida K., Grade 12 student
If you’d told me a few months ago that I’d be planting trees with students from South Africa, sorting food in a Hindu temple, and dancing beside delegates from thirty different countries — all in the same week — I probably would’ve laughed. But that’s exactly what Dubai was: a whirlwind of cultures, ideas, and laughter that showed me how powerful connection can be when it’s rooted in purpose. I met people from every corner of the world, each bringing their own perspective — stories that quietly reshaped how I think about community, empathy, and leadership. From environmental workshops to late-night conversations about identity, every moment felt alive with possibility. I came home with sand in my shoes, a camera roll full of memories, and a renewed sense of what it means to be a global citizen — curious, collaborative, and endlessly inspired.

The evening featured remarks from coaches Ben McCord, Eric Borromeo, Nosh Pestonji, and Noeen Kashif, as well as alumni speaker Savannah Dunbury ’20, who reflected on how robotics shaped her confidence and problem-solving skills beyond the lab.
A highlight of the evening was the presentation of the inaugural Gryphon Robotics Award to Volunteer Coach Eric Borromeo, recognizing his extraordinary mentorship and 17 years of service to FIRST LEGO League. A pivotal coach of the renowned Ctrl-Z team, Eric’s leadership has inspired hundreds of students to pursue innovation with humility, perseverance, and heart.
Robots, Resilience, and a Fire Alarm: ALT-F4’s Wild Ride to Victory
Written by Alina D.,
Grade 10 Student
For a two-day off-season competition in the middle of September, Robots@Mary Ward, was quite the tsunami of events. Before students at school wrote their first tests of the year, we were already testing our robot – and our wits.
We started off strong on the first day, winning our first four matches. However, things quickly took a turn when we faced Team DAVE, one of the highest-ranked teams in the world, securing two ranking-points.
Our next match was indescribable. We were on the same “alliance” as Team DAVE as well as Inverse Paradox, whom we nearly won Provincials with. However, during that match our arm broke. Our alliance still won, but looks like the pits were about to get interesting. Suddenly we heard the fire alarm blaring! At least now the pit crew and technicians had a chance to troubleshoot.
Thankfully, it was a false alarm, and we returned within ten minutes. We discovered a stripped gearbox which we tried to mend but ran out of time. We were forced to play our next match with the arm zip-tied and taped up. Though we successfully fixed our robot afterwards, we lost our number one ranking but finished as finalists. The second day looked promising! Our robot was mechanically sound, and our auto was up and running. The day went by smoothly, with us as the first alliance captain and picking Inverse Paradox again.
After a hard-fought battle with the second alliance, we finally emerged victorious, being crowned the champions of Robots@Mary Ward Day 2!
Though we encountered our fair share of challenges, it was fun to be back competing after our summer break. Now we are excited for the 2026 season to begin!
