It has been lovely to see the girls embracing this responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past two weeks, the girls have reflected on the activities that have helped them feel connected at school. Highlights include spending time with their Year 11 Big Sisters, participating in the Athletics House Carnival and sharing their thoughts and opinions during circle activities. It is lovely to hear how these experiences have helped the girls feel connected to one another and to life at MLC School.<\/p>\n<p>This week, the girls have also set goals for this term and for Year 8. Setting goals gives them something to work towards and provides opportunities to recognise and celebrate their progress along the way.<\/p>\n<p>As assessments approach, I encourage each student to reach out to her class teachers if she has questions or needs support. Asking for help is a positive step towards feeling more confident and prepared.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Stolzi\u2019s challenges will continue, and it is wonderful to see the girls getting involved with such enthusiasm. Seeing their smiles is always a highlight of my week!<\/p>\n<p>Finally, a gentle reminder to the girls to include others and celebrate the differences that make each of us unique. Every student has something valuable to contribute to our Year 7 community, and small acts of kindness can help everyone feel welcome and included.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ms-outlook-mobile-reference-message skipProofing\"><b>Expression of Interest: Kindergarten to Year 12 Learning Enhancement Parent Focus Group<br \/>\n<\/b>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"elementToProof\">Parents and carers of students who engage with the Learning Enhancement Department for Academic Learning Support and High Potential Learning are warmly invited to participate in a Kindergarten\u2013Year 12 Parent Focus Group this term.
