From Ms Allum

Welcome to the final newsletter for 2023!

When I think about the past school year, I am flooded with so many wonderful memories; the Great Hall bursting with music, colour, movement and conversations during the many performances, Inter-House activities and other events; parents engaged in animated conversations at one of the many enjoyable gatherings hosted by the P&F; the whole community, students, parents, staff, grandparents (past, present and future!) coming together to support the Light Her Path Campaign on Giving Day.

There have been moments too of sadness and loss or when things have been a bit tricky or did not turn out quite how we hoped. Perhaps it is these moments where our true selves are revealed and our courage, temperance, strength and gratitude come to the fore.

Whether experiencing good or not so good moments and everything in between, it is the people around us who shape and form our experiences and I could not be more honoured to have shared these with each and every one of you.

As we begin to prepare for Christmas, I hope the holidays provide you with an opportunity to appreciate the loving presence of the people around you.

I look forward to seeing many of you at Speech Night this evening and wish you all a Christmas filled with hope, peace, joy and love.

Happy holidays and see you in 2024!

Best wishes

Jenny Allum
Head of School
