\"\"This week has been a reflective and meaningful one for our cohort.<\/p>\n

Luminary Reflections<\/strong><\/p>\n

During Luminary time, students explored the idea of life without mobile phones at school. While many expressed that they deserve the same privileges as previous cohorts, they also acknowledged the importance of their leadership role and the benefits for academic focus and wellbeing. Their thoughtful discussions highlighted a growing maturity and understanding of how such changes could positively impact their school experience.<\/p>\n

Preparing for Learning Conversations<\/strong><\/p>\n

Students have been preparing for the upcoming Learning Conversations on Tuesday 25 November<\/strong> and Wednesday 26 November<\/strong>. They have reflected on their engagement and progress, ensuring they are ready for meaningful discussions with teachers and parents.<\/p>\n

Students of the Year 12 2026 cohort, along with their families are invited to engage in conversations regarding their engagement in learning with their Luminary. Please see the recent communication how to book a Student Progress Conversation here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Remembrance Ceremony<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Tuesday, our Cadet leaders led a moving Remembrance Day ceremony, supported by a skilled Catapult presentation. It was a poignant moment for our community to honour and remember.<\/p>\n

Chapel Service<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wednesday brought a beautiful Chapel service for our year group while Year 10 were away on their Immersion. The singing was truly one of the most memorable and uplifting experiences we have shared as a cohort. It was wonderful to see how they are appreciating these moments across their final year. Thank you to Booralee House who led our service and to Ella Hu<\/strong> who led the Bible reading.<\/p>\n

Academic Milestones<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our HSC students have completed some of their first Year 12 assessments this week, marking the beginning of an important journey of hard work and dedication over the next year. I am extremely proud of how mature and capable they have demonstrated themselves to be this in the recent weeks.<\/p>\n

Year 12 Common Room<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the last IB examination was completed today for the Year 12 2025 cohort, the Year 12 Common Room will be handed over to Year 12 2026. The Common Room committee have been busy preparing the space for our cohort and it should be ready soon for our cohort to move in. Next week during Luminary the students will contribute to respectful rules around the use and privilege of the Common Room. Thank you to our committee, Kate McKeon, Zoe Pollard, Zoe Taylor, Siena Jury, Eve Parker, Jessie Xu<\/strong> and Olivia Ebel<\/strong> for their ongoing commitment to keeping the Common Room, welcoming, inclusive, useful and clean!<\/p>\n

Rowing<\/strong><\/p>\n

We wish our rowers, Eve Parker, Ella Hu, Isabelle Ng, Stephy Liang, Ashley Denton, Rebecca Beaton, Sophie Winnall, Eliza Kershaw MacDonald<\/strong> and Clementine Hendriks<\/strong> the best of luck, as they head off today to complete in Head of the Yarra.<\/p>\n

Thank you for your continued support as we guide our students through these formative experiences. If you have any concerns or queries, please email me or call my direct line 8741 3278.<\/p>\n
