More than a Grade
More than a Grade
After the break, it is wonderful to be back and be inspired by the creativity of our students. While the whirlwind of deadlines and exam anxiety can feel overwhelming, we find our inspiration in the daily resilience of our students. Let’s remember that true success isn't defined by a final grade, but by the steady determination and kindness we show each other along the way. Stay focused, support one another, and finish this year strong!

Annual Fine Arts Exhibition and Recitals
Annual Fine Arts Exhibition and Recitals
A stunning display of creativity was seen from Preschool through Grade 12. From technical mastery to profound conceptual storytelling, our student artists truly outdid themselves this year.
We also tried a new format for our Music Recitals, featuring Primary and Secondary performances on separate days. This shift allowed us to fully appreciate the immense hard work within our music program, resulting in two "full house" audiences in the hall!
Congratulations to our dedicated teachers—Jeanine Gooch, Hailey Oh, Ken Heyres, Kate Honeybun, and Taara Portela—and to all our families for your roles in nurturing the artistry of our students. Great job, Koupreys!
HOPE at the CSPN Global Conference
HOPE at the CSPN Global Conference
HOPE participated in the CSPN Global Conference in Penang, Malaysia (March 26–28, 2026). Celebrating 20 years of child safeguarding, the event focused on the theme: Timeless Truth, Current Reality, Future Hope.
John Phifer, our Compliance Coordinator and CSPN Director, represented us by joining three days of board meetings and global strategy sessions. We return with a renewed commitment to collaboration and the protection of children worldwide.
Adam Honeybun and Andrew Wishart also attended the Response Team Training, designed to equip safeguarding team members to respond to raised concerns. The course teaches relevant skills through the CSPN Response Model using scenario-based training and assessment frameworks.
