From the Senior School

Year 11 Information Evening

Many thanks to everyone who attended the Year 11 Information Evening on Monday this week. I do understand that this was not possible for everyone, so here is the link to the recording of the information session: https://youtu.be/K-gwPSgQ2uU

Also please find below some information that was presented from the Futures Team:

Mentoring

We have also now formally launched the Senior School mentoring program to both Years 11 and 12. Senior students are offered the option of working with a mentor – a senior member of staff who is willing to meet individually with the girls to discuss their long-term goals and challenges.  The mentoring partnership is a structured one-to-one relationship that focuses on the requirements of the student, or mentee.  The relationship can be described as ‘walking alongside’ a younger person with the goal or aim of assisting that person to achieve their potential, in a supportive environment.

Students in both years have been invited to sign up for this voluntary program if they are interested – many Year 12 girls are continuing with their mentors from last year. I would really encourage all students to take this opportunity to invest in themselves.

Year 11 Formal
