Governor General’s Academic Medal Recipient

 

Before the Winter Holidays we had the opportunity to welcome back Bridget Trerise, Grad 2015, and Ms. Bell, former Argyle Principal.

Bridget is currently in her 2nd year of a Bachelor of Science in Forestry program at the University of British Columbia.

Bridget was the Governor General’s Academic Medal recipient for the Graduating Class of 2015. The Governor General’s Academic Medal was first awarded in 1873 by the Earl of Dufferin, and has since become one of the most prestigious awards that a student in a Canadian educational institution can receive.

Bridget recalled herself at Argyle as being a well-rounded student who, in addition to doing extremely well academically, was also involved in Fine Arts, Jewelry Making, Band, Soccer, and Field Hockey.

Welcome back Bridget and Ms. Bell!
