It has been an absolute pleasure stepping in as Acting Head of Year again in 2025, and I have thoroughly enjoyed every opportunity to engage with this remarkable cohort. Their energy, commitment, and ability to rise to challenges have been truly inspiring.<\/p>\n<p>As we move into the holiday period, I encourage all Year 11 students to strike a healthy balance between study and relaxation. While the holidays provide a valuable chance to revise and consolidate learning, it is equally important to allow time for rest and a mental reset. This balance is crucial for maintaining both academic performance and overall well-being.<\/p>\n<p>We finished the term with the MLC School Colour Run. I&#8217;d like to highlight the fantastic efforts of Year 11 during the recent MLC School Colour Run event, where the Year 11 Bake Sale was a resounding success. The students demonstrated exemplary organisation, dedication, and generosity in managing the bake sale, showcasing their teamwork and leadership skills. A special shout-out goes to our SRC representatives, who went above and beyond in ensuring the smooth execution of the event. Their hard work and enthusiasm truly made a difference, and I am incredibly proud of their contributions.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to all parents for your continued support throughout the term. Your involvement plays a key role in the success and growth of our Year 11 students, and I look forward to seeing what this exceptional group will achieve in the coming months as they step into becoming the leaders of the School.<\/p>\n<p>Students return on <strong>Tuesday 22 July 2025<\/strong> \u2013 in full winter uniform.
