Preview The Study 2009

om me Editors The yearbook, small as it is, encompasses innumerable memories. These memories, which instill life in the innate pages of the book, encapsulate the heart and soul of this school. Whether it be the students, the teachers, the staff or the combination of the latter, the result is the same: an unforgettable year in a stack of paper. And it is these memories, that Ashley and I, as yearbook editors, have tried our best to capture. Although novel, this task is far from simple, which is why the helping hands of our yearbook team have been so imperative. They have taken and collected pictures, designed layouts and prepared themselves for the year to come, where they can put their new skills to good use. As a team, we would like to express our thanks to the talented girls who committed to drawing the exceptional dividers this year. We would also like to thank our incredible teacher and friend, Ms. Palumbo who has helped us in every way possible. It goes without saying that your commitment to this book was crucial to its creation. Thank you, and we hope you enjoy the yearbook! Your editors, Isabelle Richard and Ashley Whalen ThcinH you Ms. Palumbo Laura Parry Hirst Billings Kirsten Crandall Anna Dai Catherine Lupine Carah Fortin A Me//age from the Head of/chool /V. falco The Study yearbook provides a treasured review of life at The Study and I am sure all will enjoy this edition for years to come. As we come to the close of another school year at The Study, I continue to be amazed by our students' accomplishments, spirit and character. Whether it be their academic pursuits, or participation in co-curricular activities such as athletics, the arts, community service, debating, robotics, biology club, or student-run conferences, the 2003-09 school year has been another one of complete student engagement. It is a privilege to support the girls in their various endeavours, and to help them navigate their successes and challenges and witness their personal growth. Nous avons la chance d'avoir un personnel et un corps professoral dynamique et hautement competent; et le soutien qu'ils dispensent demeure la source du succes de The Study. II ne fait aucun doute que c'est dans la curiosite, le talent et les qualites personnelles des eleves qu'ils trouvent leur motivation, de meme que dans le grand plaisir d'interagir avec elles. Je tiens a remercier du fond du coeur les enseignants et le personnel de soutien pour faire vivre aux eleves des experiences si valorisantes de meme que pour les appuyer dans leurs progres, tant sur le plan scolaire que personnel. I thank the graduating class of 2009 for their leadership and their creativity and for being wonderful role models for us all. They have had a palpable impact on the culture of the school and their influence will be long- lasting. I wish them all the best as they move on to new adventures and I remind them that once a Study girl, always a Study girl, that they are always welcome to return for a visit and to seek our advice and support. And indeed we expect and look forward to it! Cet annuaire regroupe une merveilleuse collection de photos et de souvenirs, que nous garderons a jamais dans nos archives. Je tiens a en remercier les editrices Isabelle Richard et Ashley Whalen de meme que leur comite, compose de Talya Soisjoli, Kirsten Crandall, Anna Dai, Sarah Fortin, Eva Halabian, Amelia Hirst, Stephanie Marie lacuessa, Catherine Lepine, Laura Parry-Sillings, et Elizabeth Pelletier-Goulet pour tout le temps, le devouement, la creativite et la reflexion qu'elles ont consacres pour creer ce souvenir bien special. Un grand merci aussi a Mme Anna Maria Palumbo pour ses conseils de meme que pour le temps et le devouement qu'elle a apportes a cet important projet. All my best wishes to The Class of 2009. Elizabeth Falco Head of School /V. Zanni/ - Director of/enior /chool As I reflect back upon the 200fi> - 2009 school year, I feel a strong sense of pride for everything that was accomplished this past year, both inside and outside of the classroom. Your public speaking presentations in French, English and Mandarin were impressive, as were all the projects I saw performed or presented in the hallways of the senior school. The new robotics initiative met with tremendous success, due to your commitment to this activity. There were so many special moments and activities, that I cannot list them all, but I must not fail to mention the Environmental Conference which, besides giving us the opportunity to hear great speakers, also gave us the opportunity to see leadership in action on so many levels, as students from grades 7 to 11 participated and co-ordinated this very special event. Comme I'annee tire a sa fin, le temps qui nous reste avec les finissantes de 2009 no us est de plus en plus precieux. Vous etes un groupe remarquable et vous I'avez prouve a maintes reprises au cours de vos cinq annees passees au secondaire. Votre compassion, votre engagement et votre bonne humeur sont des qualites exceptionnelles. Je vous felicite pour tout ce que vous avez accompli et j'attends avec impatience des nouvelles de tous les merveilleux projets que vous allez realiser. Peu importe ou votre destin vous conduira, n'oubliez pas The Study. Soyez certaines que nous ne vous oublierons jamais. As Pr. Seuss said: "Congratulations! Today is your day. You're off to great places! You're off and away1." Antonia Zannis ba/tien-Do// - Directrice du primaire Cette annee, c'est le theme de I'harmonie qui a guide nos pas. Nous avons compris que chacun d'entre nous etait responsable de creer un environnement dans lequel primait le respect de I'autre et avons porte une attention particuliere, mois apres mois, a quelques vertus que nous valorisons a The Study. Pes septembre, nous nous sommes attardes au respect et avons pratique cette vertu sous toutes ses formes. Est arrive le mois d'octobre sous le theme de I'honnetete. Nous avons compris I'importance d'etre vrais envers les autres ainsi qu'envers nous-memes. Le mois de novembre fut celui de la responsabilite, theme a travers lequel nous avons appris qu'il fallait etre reponsables de nos actions. Le mois de la tolerance est ensuite arrive en decembre, mois ideal pour mettre en lumiere I'ouverture face a la diversite et la multitude de cultures et religions qui nous entourent. L'empathie, la cooperation la confiance et la creativite furent les vedettes de janvier a juin. Nous partons en fin d'annee enrichis de ces vertus qui se trouvent a I'interieur de nous-meme pour la vie. because we know that learning goes way beyond books at The Study, I am thankful to our dedicated teachers for making it happen in such an inspiring way. Students learned through a wide range of experiences from the Harry Potter a I'ecole des sorciers play, the participation in the Parlement ecolier, the World Fair, the Grade 6 Science Project Exhibition at Montreal General Hospital, the Reading Week, the Grade 5 and Kindergarten partnership, to the trips to Quebec City, Jouvence and Le P'tit Sonheur. My congratulations and best wishes to all elementary students as they move on to the next grade. A special salute to our grade 6 students, I am confident each one of them is well prepared for success in senior school and that the living in harmony experiences and values taught this year will serve them well in their next educational journey.
