We've spotted an Alumni!
Sean Gartland '14
A surprise reunion for retired Collingwood School teacher of 15 years Lise Middleton and her former student Sean Gartland! Lise remembered Sean’s qualities even as a Grade 4 student, his work ethic and excellent communication skills are what made them choose him as their Realtor. His exceptional service led to a sale after only 4 months!
John Lee ' 08
Recently our Head of School, Lisa Evans, was flying to Kelowna for an ISABC Heads' meeting. Her pilot was Collingwood Alumni John Jae Han Lee. Captain John invited Lisa to see his "office" first-hand! John noted that he dreamed of being a pilot since he was 5 years old. This brings us joy to see John living his passions and dreams as a WestJet pilot!
