Every year in June, we welcome another group of students into the Lakefield College School alumni community. For some, their connection to The Grove remains (physically) closer than others. We are so lucky to have 14 alumni on staff this year to share their love and passion for The Grove with our +425 students.
Our favourite part about having so many alumni on staff? The joy they express when they experience longstanding Lakefield traditions from a different point of view. It’s also amazing to see and hear about the friendships they formed in Grades 9 through 12 continuing to flourish years—sometimes decades—after graduation.
