Year 12
Week 4, done and dusted!
On Tuesday, Year 12 attended a presentation by Marianna Carlino, Director of eLearning, centred on online dating; and while it can create opportunities to connect with a wider range of people, she highlighted how digital communication is changing relationship dynamics. Marianna stressed the importance of safety and consent, raising awareness of risks such as dishonesty, harassment, and online abuse, and providing practical strategies and support options to help the cohort stay safe online.
The Year 12 Chapel Service this week centred on the theme of Respect, emphasising that everyone is valued, connected, and called to treat one another with kindness, dignity, and compassion as part of this wonderful School community. Thank you to some of our Captains for reading prayers and Bible readings for the cohort.
On Thursday, Year 12 attended a presentation by Jessica MacMaster (2020) and Sarah Monaha (2019) who shared their experiences pursuing careers in private equity and social media/marketing since graduating from MLC School.
Across this week, there has been a hive of excitement and enthusiasm as students from across the school have been participating in Dance For Sick Kids. The group has already surpassed their goal of $20,000, well done! Congratulations to Isabella Townsend, 2026 Dance Captain for all her hard work in driving this initiative!
As I’m writing (Thursday), Year 12 Captains are getting Potts Hall all set up for their Prefect Afternoon Tea where they will welcome senior students from schools across Sydney – I look forward to sharing all the amazing activities they have planned next week.
Year 12 Student Progress Conversations: As we move into a significant period of the Year 12 journey, we invite you and your daughter to attend a Student Progress Conversation to follow up on the discussions held in Term 4 2025. These meetings are designed to support each student in reflecting on how they are currently engaging with their studies and to develop a clear, focused action plan for the important months ahead with students and their parents or carers.
A full letter including booking link was sent yesterday, please check your ‘messages’ on the dashboard in Omnia by clicking here.
Please note that these meetings will take place at MLC School on Tuesday 26 and Wednesday 27 May 2026 between 8.30am–3pm.
