As our City alumnae community becomes an increasingly global one, and with the growing popularity of the US as a university destination for our students, we felt that the time was ripe to organise our first overseas alumnae reunion in New York. During the reception, the group were able to meet some of our current students from years 12 and 13, who were in NYC as part of the itinerary for the history and politics trip. As Jenny commented, it was 'an exhilarating moment... to witness present and future trailblazers in a single space!'
Crofton House exchange
Havergal College exchange
For two weeks, we had the most fantastic opportunity to travel to Toronto as part of an exchange programme. There were so many enriching trips from the aquarium to the CN Tower, and even Niagara Falls! It was brilliant spending time at the school, which had an impressive 22 acres. We tried out new sports, went to a dance and took part in a competition - centred around their school mascot, the Havergal Gator. We also visited family farms, travelled to Montreal, and we were even lucky enough to celebrate Thanksgiving for the first time. It was an extraordinary experience, and we all had a phenomenal time. There were definitely tears when we said goodbye to the friends we made. Nina, Emma, Isi and Audrey, year 9
