It\u2019s been a busy week with assessments, and this will continue for another two weeks or so. Please ensure your daughter is across her upcoming assessments and reach out early for teacher support if required. This week we had Year 8 Chapel, and it was lovely to hear our Year 8 volunteers speaks so beautifully, as well as our musicians <strong>(Claudia Pruscino, Charlotte Hui<\/strong> and <strong>Erin McCrudden)<\/strong> play and sing for us a live version of Shine Jesus Shine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Thursday, Year 8 had a session with Director of eLearning, <strong>Marianna Carlino<\/strong> about digital\u00a0organisation\u00a0with Outlook. The students discussed\u00a0different ways\u00a0to\u00a0organise\u00a0and\u00a0categorise\u00a0their emails\u00a0to\u00a0assist\u00a0with their learning. I encourage you to speak to your child at home and have them show\u00a0you\u00a0their\u00a0organisation\u00a0strategies.\u00a0Five\u00a0minutes at home managing their inbox each\u00a0night, will set them up for a great\u00a0next day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Have a lovely weekend, and please reach out to the Luminary or myself if you have any concerns.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"mailto:cwhite@mlcsyd.nsw.edu.au\">&#8211; Claire White<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em>Head of Year 8<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Click on gallery to view full images<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-45423 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2026\/05\/IMG_6302.jpeg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2026\/05\/IMG_6302-480x640.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\/2026\/05\/IMG_6326.jpeg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/38\/2026\/05\/IMG_6326-480x640.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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Year 8 are halfway through Term 2!
