Good Luck to Our Rowers

Today at Recess, we wished our rowers the best of luck with a Team in a Huddle on the Quad. 

Rowing nationals commences this afternoon and we can't wait to see how our rowing students go. 

Head to our Instagram story to watch the Team in a Huddle. 

The first term has come and gone, as if in an instant and we are now preparing for the Easter break. For those of faith, Palm Sunday is soon to be upon us, as the prelude to what is known as Holy Week in the Christian tradition.

Put simply, it is a time of preparation, yet everyone already knows what the eventual outcome is going to be, namely betrayal, trial, false conviction and brutal execution...

Early Finish 
Last Day of Term

Please be reminded that students will finish at 1.00 pm on the last day of term, Thursday 6 April.

Western Derby 
Wear Team Colours 

To celebrate the Western Derby this Sunday, students may wear their team colours tomorrow.

Term 2 Co-curricular

Enrolments for Senior School Term 2 Co-curricular activities will be opening at 7.00 pm tonight.

Please click the button below for more information on each activity and to enrol. 

Ear Piercings Over the Holidays

If your daughter is planning on piercing her ears during the holidays, please make sure that any piercings are in line with the College’s uniform policy.

Students may choose to wear one small sleeper or small plain (not stones) round gold, silver, or pearl stud in the bottom of the lobe of each ear. Sleepers should be no larger than 12mm in diameter and studs no larger than 5mm in diameter. No other piercings are allowed and we ask that if your daughter has other piercings she removes them when at school.

Uniform

Next term, we ask that all our Senior School students remain in their summer uniform until Mid-Term Break. Often there are still very warm days at this time of year and we want to make sure that all our students are comfortable. On cooler days during this period, students always have the option of wearing their jumper and blazer to help keep them warm.

Kaityn Awarded Prestigious Music Qualification

Kaitlyn Sin (Year 10) has just been awarded the Licentiate of Trinity College London (LTCL) qualification.

LTCL is equivalent to the final year of an undergraduate degree in terms of the level of demand for the music examination component.

After six months of preparation, Kaitlyn completed her performance diploma examination on 7 January at St George's College, Crawley. Kaitlyn performed an extensive repertoire spanning several genres for a duration of 45 minutes.

The Sin family credits Head of Music – Performance, Miss Jessica Sardi for providing Kaitlyn the platform to perform at recitals over the years, which has extended Kaitlyn the opportunity to shortlist her favourite pieces for her examination. 

Congratulations, Kaitlyn!
