It was such a joy to watch both musicians and non-musicians perform at such a high level. The dedication and talent displayed by our students was impressive. Well done to all the Year 10 students involved in the performance! It\u2019s always a privilege to witness the commitment our MLC School girls show in their co-curricular activities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week, I\u2019d also like to give a big shoutout to our Year 10 da Vinci Team, who competed on Tuesday. The team, consisting of <strong>Joanne Chen, Stephanie Keo, Meena Kanthathas, Josephine Doan, Lindsay Zeng, Janice Leong, Sophia Hu,<\/strong> and<strong> Jocelyn Su<\/strong>, demonstrated excellent teamwork and ingenuity, and we are incredibly proud of their efforts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to these achievements, I had the pleasure of recognising several Year 10 students who received their <em>Duke of Edinburgh<\/em> Awards this week. It is always wonderful to celebrate the hard work and dedication of our students.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">A key update for the week: <strong>Elisa Scala<\/strong> (Deputy Head of Senior School &#8211; Curriculum) has sent out information regarding the upcoming Subject Selection events. We understand that subject selection is an important and sometimes difficult decision for both students and parents. We are committed to ensuring that both your daughter and you have all the necessary information to make an informed choice.
