Junior School Athletics Carnival 

We had perfect weather and a wonderful day for our Kindergarten to Year 5 Athletics Carnival.

It was a delight to see parents dressed in House colours and caps, getting into the spirit of the day. We announced the age champions and overall winner at Assembly, with Mooramoora House winning for the second year in a row! Congratulations to everyone.

While Kindergarten to Year 5 were out on the athletics track, Pre-K took over the Junior School campus. Just like Goldilocks and the Three Bears, I am wondering who has been sitting in my chair! Read more about their journey through campus in this article.

Illuminate  

It was wonderful to showcase our girls’ creative talents during this week’s Illuminate Festival, a joint initiative between our Junior School Art and STEM Departments and the Senior School. This is our own artistic and creative version of Sydney’s Vivid! The artistic achievements of our students never cease to amaze me, and this year’s festival did not disappoint. Congratulations to all students involved, and thank you to our hardworking Art and STEM Departments. 

Pre-Kindergarten to Year 5 Dress Up Day 

On Thursday, Pre-K to Year 5 came to School dressed as who they wish to be when they grow up — and the teachers joined in too! This day supported Prescott’s service learning initiative, raising money for Dress for Success, a charity that helps women feel empowered, confident and ready for work. They provide professional clothing and support to women entering or returning to the workforce at no cost.
