From the Chair of Board
Dear Members of the School community
I hope you all had a restful holiday. On behalf of the School Board, I extend our warmest wishes to you all as we begin what promises to be a rich and dynamic Term 2 at SCEGGS.
This term offers many wonderful opportunities for our community to come together – to connect, to celebrate, and to share in the life of the School. I warmly encourage you to attend our Annual General Meeting on Monday 26 May in the Lecture Theatre. The SCEGGS Trust AGM will commence at 7.30pm, followed by the School’s AGM at 8pm. Whether or not you are a Company Member, all members of the community are most welcome to attend and hear more about the governance and strategic direction of our School.
Before then, I hope to see many of you at the always-entertaining P&F Trivia Night on Friday 9 May – a night full of laughter, friendly rivalry, and community spirit. May the best team win!
There is much to look forward to this term: the Years 7–12 production of Lord of the Flies, the spectacular 130th Anniversary Music Concert Hope, the Years 9 and 10 Parent/Daughter Breakfast, and many more events that continue to build connection and community. Like my daughters, I’m sure your girls are also excited about the upcoming Inter-House competitions, and other moments that create treasured memories and friendships that will last well beyond the Green Gate.
I’m also pleased to update you on the search for the next Head of School. The recruitment process is progressing well, with applications received from a strong and impressive field of
candidates. The Board expects to announce the appointment of the sixth Head of School before the start of Term 3. We look forward to sharing this important news with you – and
in due course, to celebrating the remarkable leadership and legacy of Jenny Allum.
Thank you for the trust and support you continue to show in our School. Here’s to a purposeful and inspiring term ahead.
Best Wishes,
Sally Auld
