Falcons of the Month
A 2025–2026 Senior School Athletics Captains’ Council initiative, Falcons of the Month celebrates members of the Senior School Falcons community who embody team spirit and dedication. Each month, teacher sponsors and team coaches nominate individuals from the current term’s teams—whether athletes, team managers, courtside crew members, or passionate Falcon fans. The Captains’ Council and Senior School Athletics staff leadership then review the nominations and select the final recipients.
April Falcons of the Month
- Charlene, Grade 11 (Varsity Golf): Charlene has been a standout member of our golf team for several years now. She has been dedicated from the beginning, has competed to the best of her ability, and is supportive of teammates. When competing at tournaments, opposing coaches will often comment on how Charlene makes an effort to talk and ask them how they are doing. She demonstrates many strong traits we want everyone to work towards.
- Chloe, Grade 8 (Varsity Tennis): Chloe has so far played in every tennis match of the season so far. She is always keen to volunteer to play if others can't make it. She also missed a full day of school for ISAs and bravely competed in singles despite only being in Grade 8!
- Emily, Grade 8 (Track & Field): A standout Grade 8 in track and field, on and off the track. Emily continues to perform at a high level (sprint, hurdles, jumps) while being a great teammate and representing Crofton House values.
