From the Upper School

A message from Mrs Victoria Harrison, Acting Head of Upper School

It is wonderful this week to welcome back our Vision Valley adventurers to the Pymble campus. We loved seeing the girls reconnecting with their friends and settling back into the school routine. When I met with the Vision Valley girls yesterday prior to our welcome back tunnel it was great to hear a chant of “take me back.” A wonderful reflection of the positive experience the girls had during their residential program. Thank you to all parents for engaging with this program and to the Vision Valley staff for their care of the girls over the last four weeks.

Upper School students have been busy on and off campus. Congratulations to our rowers, tennis players, Addams family cast members and to all the girls who participated in this week’s Cross Country carnival for their commitment and involvement in these co-curricular activities.

As we celebrate International Women’s Day this week, compass groups have reflected on women who inspire them. Shout out to all the women around the world who have had an influence on our students, particularly all the mums. It is lovely to see how many girls are inspired by the love, care and influence of their mothers.
