Michele Marquet, Acting Head of School

Dear Parents and Carers,

Last Monday night at Threads, the superb Music showcase, at the Sydney Town Hall, we were able to experience the joy of coming together as a whole school community. The Junior School students’ performances, vocally and instrumentally, individually and in combined items, were breathtakingly beautiful. Our Senior School students were extraordinary – every item memorable and showcasing the marvellous musical talent and commitment to rehearsal of a huge number of Cranbrookians. Once again, our heartfelt thanks must go to our truly outstanding Music staff, led by Philip Beverley, Head of Music P-12, who inspire and allow these talents to flourish and be shared. A gallery from the evening can be viewed here.

This year has shown how a vital and united community such as ours can sustain our School as nothing else can. The positivity, kindness and support of our families at Pre-school functions, Junior School Athletics Carnivals, the various Junior School and Senior School Music events, Drama shows, Debating nights and a plethora of Saturday sport fixtures (despite the weather!) has been so inspiring for students and staff alike.

The entire School staff across every campus and I thank all our School families for their unstinting support and encouragement throughout this past semester. We wish everyone a safe and relaxing holiday break. We look forward to an exciting and invigorating Term 3.

Kind wishes,

Michele Marquet
Acting Head of School
