From the Senior School

From the Head of Senior School

The Year 11 Formal was a fantastic evening, and I was incredibly proud of the students and their guests. They conducted themselves with maturity and respect, ensuring everyone could enjoy the occasion. Their behaviour reflected the values of our school, creating a welcoming and positive atmosphere. It was a great night of celebration and a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community, highlighting the strong connections that make our school so special. 

Guest Speaker – Senior School Assembly 

It was a pleasure to hear from Mehhma Malhi (ESU 2016) about her fascinating journey since leaving Pymble. She recently graduated from Columbia University with a Master of Science in Bioethics, where she also served as an associate editor for the Columbia Bioethics Journal.

Before that, she completed a Bachelor of Arts at NYU, majoring in Philosophy with minors in Politics, Bioethics, and Studio Art, graduating with a Founders Day Award as a University Honours Scholar. During her time at NYU, Mehhma was deeply involved in student life, serving as President of her first-year dorm and later as a Resident Assistant.  

Now, she is exploring a new path, studying the art of directing at NIDA. Speaking with warmth and insight, Mehhma reflected on the importance of friendships, the value of hindsight and understanding yourself as a learner – key to making life choices that truly align with who you are. 

Alex Richter Support 

Alex Richter’s presentation to the Year 12 students last week was truly inspiring. He spoke with honesty and optimism about navigating life with purpose following an accident that left him with significant spinal cord damage. His resilience and determination were evident as he shared his journey, encouraging students to approach challenges with confidence and a strong sense of purpose.
