From Ms Allum

I am looking forward to seeing many of you this evening at Speech Night, back at Sydney Town Hall. This special evening to conclude our academic year will be a fitting tribute to the hard work, fortitude and enthusiasm of all our students, families and staff.

The title of our annual video production is “Drawn Together”, providing a snapshot of SCEGGS in 2022. This presentation elegantly brings into focus the bonds that bind our community; friendships, adventure, new experiences, learning and belonging. As we anticipate the coming of Christmas, I hope you all can be drawn together with your family and friends.

May the Christmas season bring you happiness, love and peace.

Happy holidays and see you in 2023!

Best wishes

A Happy Christmas and A Massive Thank You

 I have just returned from delivering the Christmas gifts that many of you donated to go to children and families that might nor be able to afford presents this year. They were taken to the St Vincents Community Centre in Redfern that serves a wide range of people within inner Sydney and beyond. They were extremely grateful for your gifts and assured me that the recipients always love receiving the presents. And I wanted to send my own message of gratitude for your enthusiasm and generosity with this activity. I am constantly encouraged by the way in which our community responds to the needs of others.  

The SCEGGS Podcast “Walk The Mile” Episode 29: What is social enterprise? And a bonus Walk The Mile – Episode 30: The Drama of Covid/2022 in Review.

Episode 29 of Walk The Mile is a conversation with one of our local community members, Rob Caslick. Rob is the CEO and the brains behind Two Good, a company that empowers women that have experienced domestic violence to build confidence, regain their dignity and restore their lives. It has been great to watch this company emerge over the years and for our school to be involved in several ways. Episode 30 is another conversation with my very first guest, Peter Eyers, Head of Drama at SCEGGS. We look back over the year and discuss some of the things which have impacted the lives of many. There is also a very special guest at the end of the podcast so make sure you don’t switch off.

And a reminder that we are published on Spotify, Apple, Google Podcast and Deezer, so you can access it easier from your preferred device. I always welcome your feedback or any ideas you may have for further episodes. You will find each podcast as they are produced in this newsletter and on the other platforms as well as our website. And thank you to everyone that has downloaded the podcast at some stage. We have hit the 2000 download mark and 30 episodes which I am told is a good thing! I really appreciate your time and hope you get something out of the conversations.

May you all have a relaxing and enjoyable Christmas break and I look forward to seeing many of you at the gate in 2023!

Light Her Path: The power of community in support of girls’ education

Since 2020, the SCEGGS Trust has led the Light Her Path Campaign to raise $20 million – $12 million for the much-needed redevelopment of Wilkinson House and $8 million for scholarships. The scholarship fund supports the school’s ambition to sustain 10% of students on means-tested scholarships.

This target was ambitious, and we were starting from a very low base. The school had limited capital outside of specific campaigns – the last one being to build the Joan Freeman Science Centre in the 2000s.

An undertaking of the scale of the Light Her Path campaign also faced the gender-related challenge that while boys’ schools benefit from the economic advantage of their alumni who for generations have had the means to generously support their schools, girls’ schools have not enjoyed the same advantage. 

Even though many SCEGGS alumni have gone onto have successful careers, the historically reduced economic power of women is evident in the capital reserves of girls’ schools like SCEGGS. Some may argue that SCEGGS fees are high and should support capital investment, but the small size of the school and the investment in the best quality teaching available means that student fees pay for today, and the generosity of past generations has always paid for tomorrow.

The campaign has not been without its challenges. COVID-19 meant that the focus on the health and well-being of our school community, the economic impact of the lockdowns and the shift to home-schooling, was the school’s highest priority until early 2022. 

However, we could not be prouder of the achievements of our school community through this period. Over $8.1 million has been raised through an unprecedent level of participation from over 235 parents, Old Girls and supporters. The campaign’s achievements are testament to the power of this community – and the significant ambition of our parents, Old Girls and supporters to invest in and champion the values of SCEGGS.

Light Her Path is partly about raising funds to secure the future of the school and invest in girls’ education.  However, mostly it is about recognising the value that SCEGGS plays in developing women with the strength, ambition, resilience and compassion to lead our society with energy, integrity and justice. It is about acknowledging that our small, inner-city campus has many advantages in terms of location and culture – however it also limits our capacity to grow and compels us to make the most of every square metre. 

The campaign reflects an extraordinary effort at every level of the school community. Specifically, parents in every year group joined the campaign as ambassadors to champion the cause. Sponsors and volunteers contributed their stories, hosted the Gala Dinner and drove our first ever Giving Day. Families from every year group have donated in a way that is generous for them, demonstrating the values of the school and their commitment to girls’ education. Our incredible Old Girl community has championed the cause and shared deeply personal stories about their attachment to SCEGGS. We have also benefited from the support of past and present teachers, and past parents and supporters of the school.

As we close the year, we are looking forward to a well-earned break and the opportunity to reflect on the campaign and the community’s achievements. In the short-term, we are very excited to see the redevelopment of Wilkinson House in action and to consider the impact of increased scholarships on our school community. In the longer term, we are excited about the potential to reach our $20 million goal through the power of our community in support of the future of girls’ education at SCEGGS.

Cape York Conversations

We hope you have enjoyed reading the range of reflections about Cape York experiences from the students this Term and that they might have inspired you to consider an immersion trip next year. To see previous aarticles see here.

Reflection

Last holidays I was lucky enough to be a part of the Cape York trip. I had no idea what the following 10 days would entail but soon realised it was going to be one of my greatest experiences. Throughout the trip we stayed on country at two different places, Panamuunji followed by Melsonby with their Traditional Owners.

It was such a privilege to experience the different lifestyle of the Traditional Owners who were all so welcoming and generous allowing us to learn about their knowledge and rich culture. Every night we would gather around the campfire to share stories which had been passed down through their ancestors all containing a lesson often around respecting people or the planet. We tried native bushtucker and learnt their many uses ranging from a leaf that can be folded into a cup to a flower that can substitute for chewing gum. We partook in traditional smoking ceremonies, were taught how to weave, were taught to where and how to fish in their waterways and given a lesson on Elaine’s traditional language of Guuguyimithirr. We visited two rock art sites; one of which was so vast and beautiful stretching along an expansive cave wall layered with thousands of years of drawings made in ochre of many different shades. Additionally, it was great to simply connect with the Traditional Owners whether this was through piggyback rides with Nikolah or asking questions to any of the older Traditional Owners.

The trip allowed me to experience a new perspective upon our relationship with time and our connection to land. In north Queensland the Traditional Owners’ lifestyles were deeply connected to the land and were not at all constrained by schedules or deadlines. I am a rushed person who never fails to run late but throughout my time there I began to slow down too allowing for a greater sense of calm, gratitude, and appreciation of the natural environment. The trip also allowed us to contemplate practices from back in Sydney such as phone usage, sleeping patterns and basic things like limiting how much water we use.

I had never attempted journalling before and didn’t believe I would enjoy it but throughout the trip my Red Earth journal transitioned from a few dot points to long winding pages as I tried to record every single moment of this experience. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to go on the immersion. It was truly spectacular, the Traditional Owners have forever left their mark on me, and I shall carry their stories and knowledge with me along with all the other cherished memories of this trip.

Betty Behan and Gwen Cockell Writing Prizes 2022

The English Department were delighted to read so many powerful entries for the Betty Behan and Gwen Cockell Writing Prizes. Students should look out for their work in the Lux magazine released next year as we were able to include extracts from a number of pieces.

The prize winners will be awarded at Speech Night. Their pieces will be published in full in Lux and can be read on Cognito.

The Betty Behan Memorial Short Story Prize – Junior was awarded to Pui Wai Evelyn Li (Year 7) for her piece, ‘Forget- All Because of Lies.’  Her writing artfully blends elements of both prose and free verse to create a creative exploration into themes of duplicity and mental anguish.

Sky Barrington (Year 8) was also Highly Commended for her evocative short story ‘Thanatophobia’.

The Betty Behan Memorial Short Story Prize – Senior was awarded Helaina Travassaros (Year 9). Her prose piece, ‘Like Chalk and Cheese’ uses the situation of a gymnastics competition to craft a modern allegory that reminds the reader to appreciate the beauty and perfection that exists in the ‘flawless dance’ of nature, both in the human and natural world.

Madeleine Soo (Year 9) was Highly Commended for her piece entitled ‘Happiness’.

The Gwen Cockell Prize for Creative Writing has been awarded to Christine Chen (Year 9) for her powerful poems “An Ode to My Mother” and “Burning Bridges.” Her poetry employs captivating imagery to emphasises both the fragility of life and the temporal nature of identity and belonging. This is the second year that Christine has been awarded this prize and it is so lovely to see the developing maturity in her creative work.

We received many outstanding entries in the Gwen Cockell Competition and Emma Chang (Year 9), Eleanor Lawrie (Year 9) and Zara Perkins (Year 8) have all been Highly Commended for their original pieces.

Thank you to all the students who shared their work. We are very proud of our writing community at SCEGGS.

Sydney Modern preview…

A group of 30 Visual Arts students were fortunate to attend an excursion to an exclusive preview of the new expansion of the Art Gallery of NSW, currently known as Sydney Modern. Plans are afoot to retitle this new incredible space in a local Indigenous language.

This once-in-a-generation project is an important transformation of Sydney’s  flagship public institution into a two-building art museum that will almost double the space for the display and enjoyment of art, providing more art for more people!

A new standalone building, public art garden and revitalised historic building brings together art, architecture and landscape in spectacular new ways, with dynamic galleries, site-specific works by leading Australian and international artists, and extensive outdoor spaces for everyone to enjoy.

Pritzker Prize-winning architects SANAA have designed a new, open and accessible home for art, sensitive to the beautiful parkland setting overlooking Sydney Harbour, on Gadigal country. Sydney Modern is Australia’s first art museum to be awarded the highest rating for sustainable design. 

The gallery was fascinating. Before we entered, we were cleansed by a ritual hosted by Aboriginal Elders who walked us through a smoking ceremony with the music of traditional instruments. On the upper floor, a wonderful mix of sculptures and paintings representing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture were exhibited in Yiribana. On the lower floors, the most fascinating assortment of arts, including projection, film and ceramics are able to be explored and discovered. There was one room in particular, that resembled that of recovered sea treasure! On the bottom floor, in what was once a World War 2 oil tank, was a dimly lit exhibition of mechanical sculptures that resembled  a shipwreck, covered in what looked like coral and moss, suspended by chains and wooden scaffolding. The lights were flashing and rotating, showing a different perspective of the sculpture each time it was spot lit. There were also sound effects of what I thought to be oceans. This exhibition was motivating for each and every sense. It was truly incredible to experience this building, especially in the coveted role of one of its first visitors.

Last Friday, myself and a group of art students from SCEGGS had the amazing privilege of visiting the new expansion of the Art Gallery of NSW before it opens to the public on 3 December.

The new gallery space is a beautiful, modern, standalone building that complements the historical architecture of the original building and is the perfect place to house new artworks and installations. The interior architecture is not only beautiful but was designed in such a way that each time you turn a corner, you feel as if you are discovering and exploring each work.

One of my favourite installations was Adrián Villar Rojas’s ‘The End of Imagination’. I had never seen an installation like this before and the experience is something I would highly recommend; it was quite indescribable. As you enter the space your senses are smothered by the darkness and are only given reprieve when the moving beams of light trace the floor of the massive room, whose bounds feel infinite as the darkness obscures the edges of the room. As the light moves over the sculptures that were spread throughout the room, the strange, abstracted, and grotesque shapes are revealed briefly and hidden again as the light moves on. As the light passes the sculptures you spend every second trying to decipher what they are made out of and what they mean. Bits and pieces of found material haphazardly fused together and painted with resin, I felt they conveyed a feeling of decay and death, like a piece of carrion that had been destroyed and discarded over time. This moving light sequence makes you feel as if the sculptures aren’t meant to be seen, as they are given to the audience briefly and then fade into darkness again.

I feel incredibly lucky to have been given this opportunity to see the new building and the new works. There is so much more to this expansion of the gallery of NSW and I think everyone should visit once it opens this Saturday.

SCOPE edition #11

We are thrilled to present the latest edition of SCOPE art magazine.

SCOPE is a biannual publication that showcases student writing about arts practice and provides compelling insights into the art world through reviews, critical writing and interviews. It is a student led initiative that aims to bring all aspects of the artworld into focus and provide critiques and details of current exhibitions in Sydney, as well as exploring national and overseas events. This year, SCOPE will provide an access point for artworks and exhibitions made by SCEGGS Art students in Years 7 to 12 as campus remains closed to outside visitors at this stage.

The Lead Editor for Semester 2 has been Janet Zheng. In collaboration with the broader SCOPE team, this has been a wonderful opportunity for all students across the Secondary School to develop their evaluative and analytical skills, build their collaborative and critical thinking, and has enabled them to meet new friends and create new relationships and contacts both in the student community and in the vast network of artists, and art world practitioners associated with SCEGGS.

You can access the link here.

Festival of Lessons and Carols and School Christmas Service

Congratulations to members of Choir, Madrigal Ensemble, Amati Strings and Year 7 Choir for their performance last Thursday evening at the Festival of Lessons and Carols and Monday morning’s performance at the School’s Christmas service.  It was a wonderful celebration of music with the premiere participation of the Year 7 Choir in both services.  Special thank you to Ms Lanneke Jones (Years 5 & 6 Choral item), Miss Allison Harrigan (Director of Choirs) and Mrs Anne Sweeney (Director of Strings) with their work to prepare their respective ensembles for both performances.  After two years of restrictions to singing, it was wonderful to hear the burst of Christmas music and hymns to celebrate such a special time of the year.  Well done everyone!

Beehive Industry Performance – Woodwind Ensemble

Congratulations to the students of the Woodwind Ensemble who performed at Beehive Industry last Thursday afternoon 24 November.  The students performed a small selection of popular works including Theme from James Bond and Somewhere Over the Rainbow.  It was a short, informal concert but a performance that were much appreciated by those who attended.  Special thank you to Ms Nicole Barrett (conductor of Woodwind Ensemble) for her preparation of the students.  The girls were incredibly well prepared and are one of the few ensembles that can operate independently without the need for a conductor with direction.  Thank you also to Mr Michael Tierney for seeking this performance opportunity for the girls, a wonderful way for our school to give to our local community.

Christmas Medley

Every string players from Kindergarten to Year 6 performed a wonderful Christmas Medley together for Santa’s arrival in the Primary School this week. 75 girls played their violins, violas, cellos and double basses together, accompanied by vocalists Coco Shelmerdine (Year 6) and Lilly Zadgan (Year 6) and the K-2 classes for a rousing rendition of four Christmas Carols. It was a wonderful end to a terrific year of music-making in the Primary School!

AMEB Congratulations – Singing and Trumpet

Congratulations to Laura Davies (Year 11) who recently achieved an outstanding result for her 6^th Grade AMEB Musical Theatre Video Repertoire examination.  Thank you to Ms Eloise Evans for her preparation of Laura and to Ms Holmes, Miss Harrigan for their support.  Well done Laura!

Congratulations also to the following students who completed their Trumpet AMEB examinations in their grades:

• Ashanti Gillies – Preliminary
• Maddison Soulos – Preliminary

Congratulations to members of the Primary Jazz Combo who performed in a lunchtime concert on Monday 28 November in the Primary Music Room.  The students performed the following works in their concert: Rainy Day Blues and This I Still Believe by Bernice Tesara.  The students had also completed a workshop with Miss Tesara last week on these two pieces.  The combo also performed: Sonny Moon for Two by Sonny Rollins and a jazz version of Good King Wenceslas to bring us into the festive season. 

Well done Primary Jazz Combo and thank you to Ms Louise Horwood for her direction and support of the students!

Album Launch: Preludes & Duets – Aristea Mellos (Class of 2005)

Congratulations to Aristea Mellos (Class of 2005) who launched her album Preludes & Duets on Saturday 26 November at Sydney Conservatorium of Music.  The album features a cycle of twelve preludes for piano, each inspired by fragments of poetry and a four-hand piano work Immigrant Suite which honours the life story of Mellos’ maternal grandmother, who left war-torn Europe as a young woman and emigrated to New Zealand then to Australia as a post-war refugee.  The premiere of the Preludes was performed by renowned Australian pianist Stephanie McCallum.  It was an amazing evening and it was wonderful to see the connection of SCEGGS old girls including Sydney based composer Georgia Scott (Class of 2010) and fellow classmate Nicola Chau (Class of 2005) and Aristea’s sister Maria Mellos (Class of 2011).  Aristea’s album can be streamed from Apple Music or Spotify.  Well done Aristea!

On behalf of the Music department, we would like to thank our wonderful studio of music tutors for their support and hard work with our students.  We would also like to thank parents for their support with their daughter’s learning journey on their instruments.  We wish you all a safe, Merry Christmas and New Year!

Wrapping up Another Twelve Months and Sending Them Off to Archives

“Returning home is the most difficult part of long-distance hiking. You have grown outside the puzzle and your piece no longer fits.” – Cindy Ross

Here we are again, approaching the end of another very eventful year. Sometimes we pause, and ask ourselves, how did we manage to get all those hikes completed – with so many students involved – whilst juggling the interruptions of exam weeks, holidays, sport, excursions, bad weather, closed National Parks, train strikes – and weariness? How could we have actually planned, organised, customized and implemented eighteen hikes, providing for around one hundred and fifty Award candidates? Did we really tramp about six hundred kilometres along bush tracks, hauling backpacks, through rain and heat, up-hill and down-stream, this year?

There are probably several parts to that answer, but one is that it couldn’t happen without the enthusiasm, amenability, organisation and maturity of our students, who are always ready to shoulder a challenge and overcome an obstacle.  Similarly, the support of the school – especially fellow staff, the back-office and the Executive – has created an environment where the students can embark on adventures with confidence, safety, joyfulness and energy. Of course, we also acknowledge the unseen work of unthanked parents who provide structure, motivate, reassure and reward their teenagers, patiently supportive and loving without threshold.

Yet another contributing factor is the Australian natural environment – “An opal-hearted country, a wilful, lavish land –“ as Dorothea McKellar said – our pupils respond to its unique beauty and mysteries with delight and thoughtfullness. We are fortunate to live so close to vast National Parks and wild places, where we can refresh in a picture-perfect swimming hole, and retreat to a bucolic campsite. Sometimes, it’s not a bad job.

So, with all those things on side, we’ve overcome disease, flood, tempest and fickle luck. Hopefully, next year we’ll roll through it all over again, enjoying the company, humour and aptitude of our young hikers, and perhaps avoiding the excesses of lockdowns, “weather events” and fractured routines. We long for a return to a “normal” year, where we can plan expeditions and just get on with them. We’re very much hoping this weekend’s hike will go smoothly, and trust that the Blue Mountains will reward us with wondrous revelations.

A reminder that every Spring we produce a short video highlighting the past year’s Expeditions, which can be viewed (with a student login) at:

D of E video presentation 2022

It gives a small insight into the nature of the hikes, and a recap of some experiences of this year’s graduating class.

Finally, we urge all the candidates to maintain the effort with their Skill, Service and Recreation components, and to be aware that if they have questions or problems Ms Bower will be diligently checking her emails right through the holidays. Often these months can provide opportunities to start or recommence building hours in your Online Record Book.

We wish you all a wonderful break over the summer, and trust you have safe travels, and perhaps some marvellous experiences somewhere out there in our wide, brown land.

Year 9 Art Deco Inspired Jewellery

This Term, Year 9 Design and Technology students embraced the challenge of creating Art Deco inspired jewellery. They hand fabricated the designs in brass, copper, and nickel silver. The designs showcase each students’ creativity with each design reflecting an originally, unique interpretation of the design brief. Applying symmetry to geometric shapes, students explored the Art Deco era through a contemporary design lens. With meticulous attention to detail, the jewellery range was skilfully crafted, demonstrating new technical expertise. The resulting collection of contemporary jewellery pieces was very impressive.
