New Year Message from the Parent Association President and Vice President

Parent Association

As we settle back into the school routine after winter break, we hope your families are feeling refreshed and ready for the months ahead. February feels like a great time to reconnect, and we are excited to officially begin our term as President and Vice President of the Bayview Glen Parent Association.

While we are not new to the Parent Association, this is our first year serving together in these roles, and we are really looking forward to it. It was wonderful to meet and see so many parents at our January Parent Association Annual General Meeting. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped start the year on such a positive note.

Between us, our children span across various divisions of the school, from Lower School to Prep and Upper Schools. This gives us a shared perspective on the different stages our families experience and helps us better understand the needs of parents across the entire Bayview Glen community.

Our goal is to strengthen connection and communication among our community. We are excited to do this through PA events and initiatives, including the upcoming Parent Cocktail Social in February and the Family Bowling Day in April. We want the Parent Association to feel welcoming, inclusive, and easy to engage with for all families.

We are grateful for the strong foundation built by past parent leaders and look forward to working with you in the months ahead.
Have a great second half of the school year!

Yours truly,

Catherine Sun and Khati Nathoo
President and Vice President

The PA Executive team proudly introduced their new members: Khati Nathoo, our new Vice President; Maria Tsopelas, our new Parent Volunteer Co-Director; and Ruby Cha, our new Civvies Day Co-ordinator. We are thrilled to have them on board and look forward to their contributions.

We also shared details about the upcoming PA events you can look forward to, such as our Parent Cocktail Social in February and the Family Bowling Day in April. These gatherings promise to be fun and engaging opportunities to connect with other parents and strengthen our community.

Our PA Treasurer presented the annual financials, along with an overview of the Parent Association’s $1 million pledge and previous contributions to the school. It was inspiring to see how our collective efforts have made a significant impact at the school.

Mr. Rodrigues from the Advancement and External Relations team provided an insightful overview of the Advancement and Community Engagement initiatives. He also shared the results of the Better Beginnings campaign, which has been instrumental in supporting our school’s growth and development.
