The winter weather has well and truly set in on campus and Year 10 are braving the weather rugged up in their scarves, tights and blazers. Our Uniform Shop is open every day except Wednesday, if you need to restock any items for your daughter\u2019s winter uniform.<\/p>\n
Romeo and Juliet<\/em> premiered this week to great reviews. We\u2019re so excited to support our girls in the cast and crew, who have put so much time and effort into the production. Congratulations to the following students who are in the cast:<\/p>\n Band and Crew: Marni Heavener, Hannah Hunter, Nikhita Kumar, Hemani Ramesh, Olivia Ristevski, Mia Waterhouse, Piper Maroney, Audrey Boulton, Emma Kanaan, Anneka Bigg, Hannah Dastyari, Am\u00e9lie Wallace, Tilly Shipard, Bridget Cortis-Jones and Madeleine Girgis.<\/strong><\/p>\n MLC School was invited to attend a student leadership conference this week, titled: Preparing Future Women Leaders<\/em>, at Loreto Kirribilli. Georgina Brewer<\/strong> and I were very proud of the way the girls participated and shared their ideas. Our images this week feature: Isabelle Lim, Caydence Sumantri, Melisande Pitman, Liesl Wong, Leanne Pham, and Veronica Pan.<\/strong><\/p>\n The girls heard a keynote address by Dr Nicole Archard, about the challenges facing young women today. The girls participated in Q&A small group sessions that focused on empowering young women by addressing issues such as confidence gaps, societal expectations, mental health, and the importance of STEM exposure, with insights from academic research and advocacy. It highlighted the impact of gender-determined experiences on learning and mental health, emphasised normalising mental health care, encouraged speaking up against injustice and violence, and underscored the need to reduce stigma around women\u2019s issues while fostering agency and confidence to lead in communities, concluding with the recognition that more work remains to be done. It was a great opportunity for the girls to see and hear other Year 10 students from across Sydney share their ideas on gender equality. The girls are keen to bring the information from the conference to the broader year group to raise awareness and will present at the next year group meeting.<\/p>\n
