Director’s Message

    “Whatever path you forge always
    try to savour the journey itself
    and be open to befriending people
    unlike yourself.“

Just as spring succeeds winter, one academic year succeeds another - until you reach your final year of high school.

Now, everything changes. For our graduates of 2018 change is upon you.

Like all of the great moments in life—some is gained at the price of something lost. So it is when one graduates
high school: the lesser responsibility associated with being a teenager is replaced with the accountability of
adulthood.

The care free days of youth become contested by the pressures of post-secondary studies, attaining life goals,
professional responsibility and family responsibilities. But this is nothing to fear - these are milestones that light
and mark the way forward.

I will end with a few words of advice: whatever path you forge always try to savour the journey itself and be open
to befriending people unlike yourself. Developing good friendships is one of life’s most valuable and enjoyable
features.

As you go forward you will meet many people from many backgrounds. Do try to make the most of that great
opportunity.

All the best,

Blair McDonald, Director

                                                                                                                    5

Principal’s Message

It is my pleasure to welcome new students and celebrate with our graduating students this 2017-2018
Academic Year at Braemar College.

Every student takes a unique path to discover personal growth and challenges upon arriving in Canada.
Although we all strive to be the best, it is with inevitable failures that we learn valuable life experience. During
studies at Braemar, our Teachers and Staff encourage creative and critical thinking skills for academic success
and lifelong learning.

We watch each student grow. We encourage each student in their dreams and their hopes. Now, they are
achieving their academic dreams because of Braemar College.

I ask each student to embrace life here in Canada or abroad, discover passion and accept challenges with a
positive mindset. Find support in friends and family. Look for ways to change the world for the better.

Congratulations Braemar College!

- Virgenia Lemieux, Principal
