I wish a very special welcome to our new Boarding families, who we welcomed on Monday 30 January. We acknowledge that the beginning of the Boarding journey is a transition not only for girls to navigate, but equally so for families to adjust to.

I encourage new Boarding families to reach out to the Year Level Boarding Parent Representatives.

• Year 7 and 8: Anne Cooper
• Year 9: Denise Johns
• Year 10: Michelle Sanders
• Year 11: Sally Paterson
• Year 12: Melanie Michael

Gratitude

Gratitude practices can have a positive impact on personal wellbeing. For this reason, in 2023 each girl in the Boarding House will receive a beautiful gratitude journal to commence the year. Maintaining a gratitude journal will be encouraged for all our girls. To support them in this practice, we have special guest Adèle Basheer joining us on Thursday 9 February from 6.30pm to guide boarders through the art and practice of gratitude journalling. Please note that while we encourage this practice for our girls, it will not be enforced.

Save the Date: Boarders' Parents Weekend, March 3 - 5

The Boarding Parents Weekend is scheduled for Friday 3 to Sunday 5 March at the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula.
