From Ms Allum
As we reach the end of this exciting term, I am filled with gratitude at the strength of our school community. There have been wonderful learning opportunities, from our Year 7s sitting for their first high school exams to our primary girls celebrating Outdoor Classroom Day, as well as engaging music and drama performances, House spirit shining at sport carnivals, competitive spirit rising during Saturday sport competitions, tightly contested inter-school debates and so much more. I could not be prouder of the determination displayed by each girl no matter the pursuit!

Pleasingly, the redevelopment of Wilkinson House is progressing well too with the excavation nearly complete and the foundations expected to be poured very shortly. I cannot wait to see the excitement of our students when they will be able to enjoy the state-of-the-art classrooms, support facilities, an extended Sports Hall, and the most popular feature (at least according to the students…!)… a wonderful Year 12 Common Room!
I look forward to seeing our students back on Wednesday 24 July to celebrate the School’s 129th birthday! I am also looking forward to seeing many of our parents, staff and Old Girls at our fabulous Festival on Forbes on Sunday 25 August. Until then, Happy Holidays!
Best wishes
Jenny Allum
