Since it was established nine years ago, the Faculty and Staff Recognition Day has become one of the most welcome traditions within the Faculty of Science. An updated version of the powerpoint presentation shown at the ceremony is available here. Below you will see the moments of celebration shared at the event.

In addition to planting and maintaining several gardens around campus, the Friends share their bounties with the community via their annual plant sale. The proceeds of these plant sales enrich the lives of our students. Over the past 16 years, the Friends have given out $37,000 in bursaries to 37 undergraduate students. It is for these contributions that we award the Friends of the Gardens the Dean’s Special Award of Merit. Accepting on behalf of the Friends is (Left) Sarah Lee, Department of Biology.
