WORDS OF GRATITUDE Over the past year, I have been deeply moved by the way our community has embraced Shawnigan’s commitment to growing our endowment and expanding access to a Shawnigan education. Perhaps I should not be surprised. Generosity, belonging, and a belief in the potential of others have always been part of the fabric of this remarkable School. What inspires me most is the collective spirit behind this effort. Gifts of every size, each an expression of faith in young people whose paths we may never cross, are coming together to create extraordinary possibilities. There is something profoundly hopeful in that shared commitment. To everyone who has contributed, thank you. Your generosity is a powerful reminder of who we are as a community and what we can accomplish together.
Jacqueline Flett ’97 (Groves’) Chair, Board of Governors
Reading our 2025-26 Impact Report reminds me of the extraordinary community we have here at Shawnigan Lake School. Thank you for your continued support. I am always struck by the feedback I receive about the Shawnigan Journey and its impact. One parent wrote to the Head's Office earlier this term to tell me that her son is graduating from university: “As I watch him prepare to complete this chapter, I see the lessons of Shawnigan in the way he shows up for others, owns his choices, and understands that success is better when it is shared. Those values were planted many years ago, and they are still growing. “What Shawnigan gives its students is more than an education. It is a way of being in the world, and one that will serve them for their entire lives. The memories and friendships made on the Shawnigan campus will stay with them long after the last bell has rung." As Head of School, I would like to extend my gratitude and thank every one of you who has stepped forward over the past year to help us develop and deliver the unique and exceptional opportunities at Shawnigan for our students. Your generosity helps to shape them into the next generation of community-builders and leaders.

KINDLES HEARTS Ensuring Shawnigan continues to thrive through the Annual Fund
The Annual Fund concluded the 2025–26 fiscal year raising $1,949,874, reflecting the continued generosity and commitment of donors whose support helps advance Shawnigan’s priorities and sustain its programs and student experience. Donor support remained closely aligned with the School’s strategic priorities, particularly scholarships and financial aid. The second annual Giving Day also continued to strengthen Shawnigan’s culture of philanthropy, exceeding its $100,000 goal and raising $123,952 from 456 donors in 24 hours, including 170 new donors. “Shawnigan saw me evolve more than my family could’ve imagined. I truly hope that every student can make the best of their time there whether it’s sports, inter-House events and the camaraderie that comes with them, or the 360 you choose and the opportunity you have to get out of your comfort zone. I hope every student looks back and realizes how special Shawnigan Lake School is.” – Zach Brault ’21 (Copeman’s), Giving Day tribute The top areas supported through the Annual Fund this past year included C.A.S.E. (Communications, Arts, Sciences and Entrepreneurship), the Scholarship and Bursary Endowment, and the Head’s Fund. Projects completed and/or impacted by the Annual Fund included squash courts and gymnasium refurbishment, increased funding for general programming via the WellBeing Centre, and newly implemented livestreaming at the squash courts.

FORGES FUTURES Creating a legacy for generations to come “Mighty oaks from little acorns grow.” Overlooking Shawnigan from a hill near Lake’s House is a stalwart oak tree, grown from an acorn that our founder, C.W. Lonsdale, brought to Canada from England’s famed Sherwood Forest. A lasting symbol of Lonsdale's dream, the oak represents the vision and commitment that lives on through those who leave a legacy at Shawnigan. Legacy giving is inherently universal. It is a way for anyone in the Shawnigan community to leave a lasting impact without affecting their current finances. Launched on Founder’s Day 2025, the Shawnigan Oak Society has made significant progress over its first year, including a noteworthy uptick in younger alumni joining the society. Legacy giving is not just for later in life; it is an accessible way for anyone wanting to help secure Shawnigan’s future. Legacy gifts provide long-term strength and sustainability for Shawnigan. They expand scholarships and student access, support future-ready programs and facilities, and uphold Shawnigan’s values and traditions. We are ever grateful to our caretakers – alumni, parents, staff, and friends – whose commitments are helping to preserve the School for future generations.
"My time at Shawnigan remains one of the most transformative experiences of my life, and supporting the Oak Society is my way of honouring that legacy. It keeps me tied to the School while helping ensure the next generation gets the same incredible foundation I did. I'm grateful for the opportunity to play a part in that." – Carlin Hamstra '09 (Ripley's)

BUILDS FOR THE FUTURE
Investing in our campus for generations to come Building on the international reputation of our coaches – led by Colin Whitney and Mike Johnson – Shawnigan’s squash program continues to thrive. Major improvements were made to our facilities over the past year, including the rebranding of the squash centre to honour former Headmaster E.R. (Ned) Larsen. The Sportsplex squash courts, mezzanine, atrium, and changing rooms have all been refreshed with Shawnigan branding. The 2026 Mike Johnson Classic tournament in May included the dedication of the E.R. (Ned) Larsen Squash Centre. The tournament was the first event to use the squash program’s new donor-funded livestreaming technology which allowed parents and alumni to tune in and watch the matches. Not far from the Squash Centre is the Kameda Climbing Centre, built in a repurposed squash court adjacent to the Larsen Gymnasium and replacing the climbing wall formerly located in that gym. The new facility offers vastly expanded opportunities for our growing climbing program. Lead funding for the Kameda Climbing Centre was provided by Takeshi and Machiko Kameda, parents of Chika Kameda '24. Their family recognized the value of such a facility at the School to challenge our students and support their creativity and problem-solving skills. Several donors with a passion for the sport also generously contributed to the Centre's development.
“This is a great addition to the squash area and, with the Club Locker live scoring system, gives the School one of the best squash facilities in Canada.” – Colin Whitney, Head of Squash

THEIR FUTURE Our vision, their future
In honour of Shawnigan’s 110th anniversary, we were thrilled officially to launch the Imagine 30/30 Challenge. This is a generational initiative with an ambitious goal to raise $30 million by 2030, doubling our available scholarship and financial aid funds. During the Scholars’ Chapel on May 2, 2026, we premiered a heartwarming video that captures the ripple effect of generosity and giving back. Scholarships do more than support a single student; they enrich the journey of every person on our campus by creating a more diverse, vibrant, and complete educational journey. We are proud to be the leading secondary school in Canada for financial aid and scholarships, with one third of Shawnigan students receiving some form of financial support. This vision has guided us since founder C.W. Lonsdale welcomed the first students more than a century ago. New named scholarships launched for the 2026–27 academic year include the Smith-Frederiksen Scholarship, established by past parents and their daughter, an alumna of the Class of 1996, in gratitude for her outstanding academic and personal success at the School; the Xavier Rasul-Jankovics Scholarship, established in memory of Xavier Rasul-Jankovics, a beloved member of the Shawnigan community; and the Mark Forster Scholarship, started by our Shawnigan Maintenance and Operations Department in memory of Mark Forster, a long-serving staff member.

SPARKS MINDS Equipping our students to thrive
Two unique programs funded by generous contributions continue to bring outstanding educators to Shawnigan, helping our students to obtain extraordinary knowledge, skills, and experiences on and off campus. The Bruce-Lockhart Fellowship for Academic Excellence was launched in 2021 to bring an outstanding local, national or international educator to Shawnigan for one year, with the idea of shedding light on aspects of academics the School may not have previously explored. In 2025-26, the position was held by Sarah Teunis-Russ, who was doing double duty as the School’s archivist and curator and brought a desire to make history more tangible – at Shawnigan and beyond. She was succeeded in the position this fall by Dr. Brad Necyk, who is teaching digital media and computer science, and leading inquiries into artificial intelligence, an exciting addition to our curriculum. The Heimbecker Inspiration Chair for Experiential Education was also established in 2021 to support the development of experiential education at Shawnigan and to deliver extraordinary learning experiences for our students. Last fall, the efforts of two of our Heimbecker Chairs – Dr. Alexei du Bois (2024-25) and Emily Coolidge (2025-26) came to fruition in the form of the Regenerative Futures Conference, presented by Shawnigan, the University of British Columbia, the University of Cambridge, and Sustainable Education, to explore issues related to Indigenous knowledge, regenerative leadership, and sustainable systems. Ms. Coolidge remains at the School as Dean of Academics (Senior Years), and Dr. du Bois is now Assistant Head of School – Academics and Innovation.
“The Bruce-Lockhart Fellowship for Academic Excellence has been a cornerstone for driving educational innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and scholarly rigour at Shawnigan. Besides providing an amazing opportunity for an outstanding educator, the Fellowship enables all Shawnigan faculty to engage in innovative teaching practices and explore new perspectives.” – Sharon Klein, Head of Academics and Leadership Development 17

THE SHAWNIGAN COMMUNITY Engaging alumni, parents and friends
Over 2,100 alumni, parents, and friends stayed connected with the School by attending events hosted by the Advancement & Community Engagement team, including the New Parent Dinner, Carol Service and Major Awards hosted in conjunction with the Shawnigan Parents Association, as well as alumni-focused events such as the Alumni Golf Classic, Founder’s Day, Remembrance Day, Head’s Luncheons, and gatherings around the world. We focused on building connections with our young alumni, working to strengthen our connection with graduating students as they transition into alumni status, helping them to thrive beyond our gates. Our expanded focus on East Asia is driven by its regional significance for Shawnigan and the desire to grow the School’s profile. The inaugural East Asia Ambassador Board (EAAB) meeting took place in late October 2025, followed by a spring 2026 in-person meeting in Tokyo to coincide with the 110th Anniversary event at the Canadian Embassy. Throughout 2026, we have celebrated our 110th anniversary around the world, from London, Tokyo, Shanghai, Seoul, and Hong Kong to Seattle and here on campus. Selected celebration elements include anniversary merchandise and a special edition anniversary stag print; a coffee table book, Shawnigan in 110 Objects; unveiling of newly-donated House poles from Brad Assu ’83; and a whole School photo. We are excited to launch the Shawnigan Alum of the Year (SAY) Award, designed to recognize outstanding alumni who exemplify the School’s values and make meaningful contributions in their communities and professions. The first SAY award will be presented at Founder’s Day 2026.
