Message from Michele Marquet, Head of Junior School

Dear Parents and Carers,  

Next week, Friday, 5 September, from 7:45am, we are very much looking forward to welcoming important males in the lives of our students to our Father’s Day Morning. Please see the invitation here and remember that there will be no carline and no optional co-curricular activities being held on that morning.

Our long-awaited JS Production of ‘James and the Giant Peach’ will be held in the Packer Theatre, with performances on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings, 10 – 12 September. If you are yet to purchase tickets for your family, you can do so here.

Today, we were thrilled to see so many of our Junior School students participate in the Spring Festival’s Music Eisteddfod. Their engagement and preparation were commendable. Thank you to Peter Fox and the music team for the organisation of this event. It was a wonderful opportunity for students in Years 3 to 6 to showcase their performance skills on piano, strings, woodwind, brass, percussion, guitar and voice. As usual, this year’s Eisteddfod was judged by external adjudicators who wrote an encouraging report on each performance, providing feedback and awarding grades of achievement. We are extremely proud of all our students’ performances.

We are looking forward to the start of Y3-Y6 summer sports training tomorrow afternoon. Please note that there is no multi-sports tomorrow morning. On Monday, 1 September before and after school training commences. Please remind your son to pack his sports kit and bring it to school on his training days.

We wish all of our families a lovely weekend.

Kind wishes, 

Michele Marquet
Head of Junior School
