This week, we’ve seen our Junior School girls demonstrate creativity, determination and resilience through hands-on learning - from engineering billycarts and exploring art, to developing leadership and water safety skills.

We’ve celebrated connection, confidence and courage in Middle School this week, with Year 7 embracing sunshine and teamwork at Long Reef for their Mind Body Spirit Day, and Year 8 preparing for a well-earned farewell celebration at Luna Park as they get ready to step into Upper School.

We’ve had a wonderful week in Boarding, filled with celebration, connection and community spirit. From Halloween festivities and our Baking Boarders’ delicious visit to Maggio’s, to room draws and reflection evenings in Avonmoore, the joy and camaraderie across our houses have been inspiring.

It’s been an inspiring week in the Upper School, with our Vision Valley students showing courage and resilience during their expeditions, Year 10 completing exams, and our girls achieving excellence across sport, STEM and leadership. We are so proud of their determination, curiosity and spirit.

We continue to wish our Year 12 students every success as they complete their HSC examinations, and look forward to celebrating their achievements at our Gradu-bration event in December. The Have A Go Expo was a wonderful showcase of initiative and connection, with our new Year 12 students leading with energy and creativity across a range of activities. This week, we’ve also been reflecting on the importance of broad and supportive friendships in shaping both wellbeing and academic success. Encouraging our girls to build open, trusting and diverse friendships helps strengthen confidence, motivation and belonging - key foundations for thriving in Senior School and beyond.
