Neuchâtel Junior College Magazine
Neuchâtel Junior College celebrated its 60th Anniversary on Saturday, October 15th, 2016 with a spectacular après- ski themed gala. Volunteer Master of Ceremonies, Marc Kielburger ’95, guided us through the evening at the beautiful Allstream Centre in Toronto. Guests mingled in the shadow of a fabulous Matterhorn ice sculpture under a twinkling Zermatt night sky.
The ceremony opened with the first and sixtieth classes (1957 and 2016) leading the guests in the singing of O Canada, followed by a toast proposed by Peter Hebb ’57, who was the first student ever recruited by NJC Founder, Leonard Wilde for NJC’s inaugural 1956-57 school year. Guests were addressed by Dr. Daniel Andreae ’72, the Lead Patron of the 60th Anniversary Gala, Bill Boyer, current Head of School and Honorary Gala Co-Chairs, Toby Jenkins, Parent ’16 and Anthony Lacavera ’93 prior to participating in an exciting live auction.
Neuchâtel Junior College is so thankful for the enthusiasm and generosity of our community.
Merci et à la prochaine!
