ALUMNI HIGHLIGHT of Theodora van den Merkenhof - van Roijen '88

The 2022 Elmwood Gala event was an outstanding success raising over $320,000 in support of In Our Element, the campaign for the Sciences for K-12. The event was attended by several Old Girls and Alumni. 

On Friday, June 24, the Old Girl and Alumni Association hosted a lovely luncheon at the Royal Ottawa Golf Club.

The Junior School was full of action on Friday, September 16. Students participating in the Terry Fox Run and their first House Day!  Read our reflections and see photos from the day.

Mid-September our Grade 6-12 students attended Camp Elmwood, a 3-day camping experience that brings all of the students and staff from the Middle/ Senior School together, creating bonds and building friendships. Read the reflections and see the photos.

At Elmwood School, we are passionate about developing strong readers. That is why, in the fall of 2019, we launched a new early intervention program in the Junior School. This initiative aims to identify reading issues early so that struggling students can begin receiving support at the first sign of difficulty. 

This Fall, we are excited to be able to reinstate our rich, dynamic co-curricular program, enabling each student to experience an exceptional array of activities carefully designed to provide just the right level of challenge, engagement and fun. 

Going away to camp for three days gives all of us the chance to achieve so many things that align with our philosophy and beliefs about education.
