\"\"This week in Year 9 there was a focus on academic wellbeing. Each student had the chance to check in with their Luminary teacher on their progress towards their \u2018growth mindset goal\u2019 for the term, set in Week 2. A growth mindset goal is about continuous learning and development, rather than just achieving a specific outcome. For example, instead of aiming to get a certain result, a growth mindset goal would be to improve problem-solving skills by practicing regularly. It was wonderful to hear from Luminary teachers about how proactive Year 9 had been over these past four weeks; many students had already implemented the steps they said they would take to achieve their goal, and had started to reach out for support, as needed. I would encourage you to ask your daughter about her \u2018growth mindset goal\u2019 for the term, as there may be steps you can also take at home to support her on her academic journey.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

During Chapel this week, some of our Year 9 Middle Years Leaders were given the opportunity to lead the service by reading the bible readings and prayers. Well done to Nikhita Kumar<\/strong>, Bridget Cortis-Jones<\/strong>, Madeleine Girgis<\/strong>, Anna Yin <\/strong>and Estelle Davis <\/strong>for speaking beautifully and representing Year 9 with grace and maturity.<\/p>\n

Finally, a reminder that students are expected to wear their blazers to and from school as the outer garment for Term 2 and Term 3. I ask for your support to ensure your daughter is wearing her correct uniform to and from school, including her blazer.<\/p>\n

As always, please do not hesitate to contact me or your daughter\u2019s Luminary teacher if you have any queries, concerns or simply wish to touch base about her academic, social and emotional wellbeing.<\/p>\n
