Alumni Share Wisdom During Intersession Week

Students Hear from Crescent Brothers

Crescent students in the Middle and Upper Schools got the chance to learn from their alumni brothers during the inaugural Intersession Week from March 6 to 9, 2023. They covered topics such as leadership development, identifying the core values that guide them, and what they learned from challenging situations.

Class of ’23 Grads Connect and Unwind

With university acceptances coming in and graduation around the corner, Grade 12 students headed to Elite Camps North from May 17 to 19 for an experiential trip and an opportunity to leave their responsibilities behind for a few days.

The boys had free rein across the campgrounds and access to a variety of sports. On Thursday, they sat at the fire pit for reflection and discussion. “We talked about life’s journeys, beginnings, and ends,” says Assistant Head of Upper School Ari Hunter. The boys were invited to write a letter to their future selves, which will be given back to them at their five-year reunion.

That evening, they were joined by alumnus Remi Ojo ’08. He counselled the boys to manage their expectations and introduced the concept of “falling forward,” the idea that journeys involve setbacks and there is a lot to learn from them.
