Many of you would know that Adventurous Learning is one of our four School values. It is important to us that throughout their subjects and cocurricular activities, our girls have opportunities to embrace new and exciting experiences.

Welcome to Semester 2. I hope that you had a safe and enjoyable winter break, and that your daughters are feeling refreshed and ready for Term 3.

At Wilderness, we are consistently seeking to ensure that we are providing an exceptional education for our girls. We often look outside of our own gates, to learn from the best leaders, thinkers and educators across the world to enable this.

Our School mission, to enable each girl to be the best she can be throughout her life, leads us to consider what it is that our girls may face in both their personal and professional lives once they leave Wilderness.

It is important to us that Wilderness is a place for every girl, and for every family. We are very proud to be able to offer a diversity of subjects, events and activities to enable our community to participate and thrive.

I hope you have all enjoyed a wonderful holiday break. We are excited to welcome back students and parents alike for Term 2 in a few days’ time. Before the term commences, we have some staffing updates to share.

As this is our final newsletter for Term 1, I am reflecting on nine weeks of rich learning, with one still to come.

International Women’s Day is an invitation to pause, step back and consider where we stand on the road to gender equality.

Our involvement with Round Square is something we are very proud of at Wilderness School, as it supports us in achieving our Wilderness mission: to enable every girl to be the best they can be throughout their life.
