Year 10

This week in Year 10, our focus has been firmly on the future, as we aim to equip your daughters with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions for Year 11 and Year 12.

On Monday, Jo Cilia, our Head of Futures and Pathways, led the girls through a session on their Career Profiles. They began exploring suggested career fields aligned with both their testing results and personal interests. This is an exciting and ongoing process, and we will continue to build on it in the coming weeks, particularly in relation to their upcoming subject choices.

Later in the week, on Thursday, Priscilla Quintana, IB Coordinator, presented on the IB Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. She was joined by a group of Year 12 students, who shared their personal experiences and insights. Their perspectives added a valuable dimension to the discussion. For those considering the HSC, a similar presentation will be held in Week 5 (week starting Monday 26 May 2025), offering another opportunity for your daughter to reflect on the best academic path for them. 

I am looking forward to seeing many of you at the Sydney Opera House Concert on Monday. A huge congratulations goes to our Year 10 musicians, who have dedicated countless hours to rehearsals and preparation. Their commitment and talent promise a truly memorable performance. That said, it’s not only our musicians who deserve praise—every Year 10 student has contributed meaningfully to the preparations, and I am proud of their efforts. Please ensure you have reviewed all parent communication regarding your daughter’s movements for the day. This can be found in Omnia or clicking here

Lastly, I would like to acknowledge how well most of Year 10 have been wearing their MLC School uniform. They are representing themselves and the School with pride and professionalism. I kindly ask for your continued support at home to maintain these high standards, particularly with regard to uniform jewellery guidelines.
