2006

This letter is to advise you that Sedbergh' School's Headmaster, Jeremy McLean, is resigning at the end of the school year, June 30th, 2007.

Jeremy has been Headmaster of Sedbergh for twelve years. He has made significant contributions and introduced important changes to the School during his tenure. These include, amongst other things, the establishment of a Wilderness Integrated Curriculum (WIC), the raising of the School's academic standards and graduating students' results for university entrance, attracting first-rate teachers and, most imprtantly, both he and his wife, Bunny, have created a warm and happy environment for all students attending Sedbergh. Sedbergh has been most fortunate to have them leading the School over the last decade.

The Board of Trustees has set up a Search Committee to find a new Headmaster who will not only preserve the philosophy and academic standards of the School, but also retain the personal and warm family atmosphere Jeremy and Bunny espoused so effectively. In the meantime, the School will continue to operate without change, with Jeremy as Headmaster, until the end of the school year. We expect to announce the new Headmaster's appointment at the Sedbergh Closing in June, if not sooner.

I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for your continuing interest in and support of Sedbergh. We will keep you posted as to our progress.

Yours sincerely, Tim Hartley Chairman, Board of Trustees

Monday 12 February 2001 If Pat Pettigrew, a resident in the Montebello area, needed proof that cross-country skiers are a hardy lot, he got it yesterday as hundreds of participants in the 35th edition of the Canadian Ski Marathon skied past his rural property. "Closer to Ottawa (and Buckingham, where the marathon ends), it's open and the wind would be intense," he said.

The first leg of the 160-kilometre marathon was to be from Lachute to Montebello on Saturday, then from Montebello to Buckingham yesterday. More than 2,000 people had registered for the marathon, the best showing in 16 years.

But Friday's showers and freezing rain spoiled groomed trails and flooded large tracts of land near Lachute. Then Saturday's windstorm, which left almost 300,000 Quebecers without power, did its jig through the Laurentians, one of the hardest-hit regions in the province.

Organizers were forced to cancel the Lachute start, said Sara Pettigrew, Pat's wife and a Sedbergh School teacher, who was to take about seven students on the first 16-kilometre section of the marathon trail.

Sedbergh School

Welcome to Sedbergh, we are pleased to see that you are considering our school for your child's secondary level and university preparatory education. We encourage you to take the time and explore our web site. It is designed to help you (and your child) understand why Sedbergh is the right choice. Our intentionally small school community of 90 students is diverse on all levels. At the start of the 2006 school year, our students came from as near a Montebello and as far as China. Our multi-cultural envrionment represents 30% of the student body with countries of origin including: Bangladesh, Bolivia, Canada, China, Germany, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, United Kingdom and United States. As a school much in demand, we encourage you to apply early (prior to March is ideal). Our senior grades (11 and 12) rarely have space for new students. Entrance in grade 9 or earlier in 7 and 8 is highly recommended to secure a position for the higher grades. Our selection procedures are competitive as Sedbergh is not for everyone. Sedbergh students are not selected based on their academic performance alone, we look for individuals who will thrive in a supportive and challenging environment; those who are willing to take responsibility for their actions and make positive contributions, to the school community. To this end, we see in our mission appropriate students the potential to instil the school's motto "Felicitas Libertas Virtus - Happiness is freedom, freedom is courage" is instilled. If you feel that Sedbergh is a good place for your child, contact the admissions office by email or telephone (819 423 5523). We will be pleased to answer your questions, mail an application package or schedule a campus visit. We look forward to meeting you soon. Joanna A.A. Hoad Assistant Headmaster Enrolment, Advancement
