​Thank you to everyone who made last Friday’s Twilight Festival such a wonderful success! In particular I would like to acknowledge the work of Festival Coordinator and PFA Vice President, Mrs Catriona Minney, whose vision, energy and incredible amount of work, was instrumental in bringing about such a fantastic event.

​Our Parents and Friends’ Association Twilight Festival was enjoyed by many last Friday night. The event gave our community the opportunity to enjoy rides, food, stalls, games and a major raffle, with the night ending in a spectacular display of fireworks! Thank you to our dedicated PFA group for putting together this successful and enjoyable evening.

End of Year Events and Celebrations: students and parents are reminded of the forthcoming events and ceremonies held to mark the end of the 2016 School year.

Junior School Production, Twilight Festival and Vale Fred Hyde: Congratulations to the cast and crew of the Junior School Production, The Little Mermaid, who thrilled us with their colourful and polished performances last weekend.

After months of rehearsals and preparation our Years 4 to 6 students performed in the Junior School production of Disney’s The Little Mermaid over the weekend! Thanks to staff and parents who gave their time so generously to ensure its success, and well done, girls!

​On Saturday 5 November, after months of rehearsals and preparation, our Years 4 to 6 students will perform in our Junior School Production of The Little Mermaid. For some girls, it will be their first time performing on stage on front of a real audience and we wish them, and indeed all the girls, well as they enjoy this foray into show business!

​Term 4 is progressing with a buzz of excitement as girls and staff prepare for forthcoming examinations and/or end of year events.

Our Lowther Hip Hop Team ‘12th Edition’ have won their division at the Australian All Star Cheerleading Federation National Championships in Sydney on the weekend. As their score was the highest of any hip hop team competing, they are also given the title ‘Grand Champions’. Congratulations, girls!

​We are very proud of Year 3 student Gisele who has raised almost $2800 recently for the JDRF One Walk (the world’s biggest type 1 diabetes fundraising event).
