Amazed by American Thanksgiving & Art

4 December 2019Megan K, Alex ‘20

November is a busy month – students are working hard to finish first term well, the Grade 12s are furiously finishing (or in some cases, starting) their university applications, and our first term competitive sports end their season.

Brentwood hosts American Thanksgiving to not only acknowledge our American students & families from south of the 49th, but also to celebrate the hard work done together as one big Brentwood family.

Students, staff and families were lucky enough to enjoy some delicious turkey and stuffing, mashed potatoes, and of course, pumpkin pie, for a second time this term. Lynn W, Allard ‘20, said, “I really loved the Friendsgiving; it was really nice to take a break from studying and have some bonding time.” Thank you to the talented food services staff for organizing this feast for us.

After the meal, each brother/sister house pairing attended the Overture Art Show. It was a delightful time for everyone to warm up in the Centre for Arts and Humanities and to enjoy the visual art displayed.
