Admissions Gets Hand from Global Team
Members of the Admissions Office have
been spreading the word about Stanstead
around the globe. But they haven’t been alone.
Everywhere we went, alumni, parents and
friends were there to lend a hand.
In November, Director of Admissions
Joanne Carruthers attended a school fair in
Hong Kong, where she was assisted by Maidie
Chan, wife of Shu Kwon Chan (1975) and parent
of Ben (2005) and Dorothy (2007).
In Taipei, Mei-Hui and Hsien-Ching Chiu,
parents of Paul (2006) and Ling (Grade 11),
carried the day for Joanne, who had encountered
travel trouble. The Chius were ably assisted
by Lily Wang, mother of Grade 12 student
Rita Chen; Tsai Yo-Li Ou, mother of Cindy
(2005), Scott (2006) and Freda (Grade 12); and
Tang Su, father of Charlie (Grade 10) and
Nelson (Grade 11). A huge thank you to these
Stanstead ambassadors.
In Bangkok, Joanne was assisted by Bounrak
and Nutjaree Kantharoup, parents of Anand
(Grade 10) and Thipawan Chatrabhuti, mother
of CD (2004).
In January, Joanne traveled to Germany,
where she was assisted by Gustl Eder (2001)
and Julia Mank (2004). Gustl actually traveled
to and from his work in Nürnburg to help
Joanne in Frankfurt, Munich and Cologne. His
dedication is commendable!
In Mexico City, the Campuzanos (parents of
Maria, Grade 8) and the Maillards (parents of
Camila, Grade 8) opened their homes to
Admissions Associate Joanne Ross,
Headmaster Michael Wolfe and guests for two
very successful information evenings.
In March Joanne Carruthers traveled south,
where she was assisted at an information session
by trustee and parent Yvan Ronsse (Eric,
2006, and Julien, Grade 11) as well as Michel
Prada and Catherine Orlando, parents of
Mickael Orlando, Grade 12.
In St. Lucia, Allen Chastanet (1979) acted as
host to Joanne Carruthers and Alumni
Coordinator Brian Denney for a well-attended
first time recruiting venture.
Again, thank you to all our worldwide alumni
and friends for their help.

Thipawan Chatrabhuti in Bangkok.
