At the moment she is studying for an Artist Diploma in the opera department of the Yale School of Music, which she expects to receive in 2013. In 2009-2010 Vivien was an Emerging Artist with the Calgary Opera. Check out her web site. Vivien said, "At the Shambhala School I had the great fun of playing Benedict in "Much Ado About Nothing", one of my first trouser roles, as well as Grusha in "The Caucasian Chalk Circle."
The Shambhala School Girls Volleyball team won the ACIS Volleyball tournament at the end of November beating Sacred Heart, Grammar, Armbrae and the Independent School. Watch a video of them on the Junior High School Life page.
Rachel Vogler moves to BC! Since her Shambhala school days, Rachel has been to McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, for an undergraduate degree. From Hamilton, she moved to Kingston for her medical degree. Four years, in a town that reminded her just enough of home, weren't enough, so she stayed on to complete her training in Family Medicine. Having always had an interest in pregnancy and women's health, Rachel went on to do a Fellowship in Women's Health, based in Toronto, before she could finally call her formal training done. Formal training might finally be over, but Rachel continues to learn every day as she provides care in a family practice and walk-in clinic in Vancouver BC. When she's not working, she is up enjoying the best of what BC has to offer, beautiful mountains for hiking and snowboarding.
