It\u2019s so important to recognise and acknowledge their successes, both inside and outside the classroom. I encouraged Year 10 to continue sharing their accomplishments with me and their Luminary \u2013 we love hearing about the amazing things they\u2019re doing beyond school. We\u2019re incredibly proud of how well they balance their academic commitments with a wide range of other interests. Below are some photos of our Year 10 Cadets and Mathematicians. Well done to all involved!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>On Wednesday, Year 10 took part in an important pastoral care session with Paul Dillon on <em>Young People, Alcohol and Risk Taking: Looking After Your Mates<\/em>. The talk provided practical strategies for keeping themselves and their friends safe when socialising, while also debunking common myths around alcohol, vaping, and drug use. Year 10 engaged excellently with the presentation and the feedback highlighted the importance of educating and equipping our students. As part of this program, they will continue to hear from Paul Dillon over the next two years ensuring they have the knowledge and understanding of navigating the world around them.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>&#8211;<a href=\"mailto:phewett1@mlcsyd.nsw.edu.au\"> Penny Hewett<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em>Head of Year 10<\/p>\n<p><em>Click on gallery to view full images<\/em><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-41503 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2025\/07\/IMG_1408.jpeg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2025\/07\/IMG_1408-640x480.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2025\/07\/IMG_1989.jpeg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2025\/07\/IMG_1989-640x480.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week in our Year meeting, we celebrated the many achievements of our Year 10 students.
