Supporting STMC Grad 2025

Graduation is one of the most special milestones in a student’s life — and it takes a supportive community to make these celebrations truly unforgettable!
We are reaching out to all STMC parents across all grades to invite you to get involved, get a sneak peek at our exciting grad events, and pay it forward by helping this year’s graduates and their families fully enjoy this important moment.

We particularly need volunteers for two key events:

1. Grad Mass & Reception
2. Dry Grad

Even signing up for a shift or two will make a huge difference. Please consider lending a hand by signing up here: volunteersignup.org/KP7HH

As the saying goes, “It takes a village to raise a child.” Together, we can make this a truly memorable and meaningful celebration for our graduating students.

Thank you for your support — we can’t do it without you!
Warm regards,

Anne Fok & Marita Deza

Mikey’s Run

In honour of STMC Class of ’07 Grad Mike Lowe who we sadly lost last June, we encourage you to take part in Mikey’s Run. This event happens on June 29th, 2025 at the Burnaby Lake Rugby Fields.

Mike was a devoted father, son, brother, husband, friend, and a proud STMC Alum. This run is more than a tribute to Mike’s love of running – it’s a call to action. Let’s honour his legacy by creating space for openness, connection, and support. Volunteers and/or runners are encouraged to sign up through the website, Mikey’s Run.
