It was wonderful to see all girls from Years 1-12 back at Lowther Hall today, and especially exciting to unveil our new Blinkbonnie House.

​I am so proud of the outstanding VCE results at Lowther Hall in 2017 as they are a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our students and our teachers. 23 percent of the Year 12 cohort scored an ATAR (Australian Tertiary Entrance Rank) of 95 or above..

​I am certain that all who attended St Paul’s Cathedral for our annual Carols Service last night will agree that it was indeed a “night divine”! The girls, as always, made me incredibly proud as they lifted their voices together in song with great enthusiasm.

We are delighted to introduce our new Academic Wardrobe! It was wonderful to see so many parents and members of our community at our five launch events and to receive so much positive feedback about our new range of trans-seasonal items.

​Our new Academic Wardrobe is here! It was wonderful to see so many parents and members of our community at our five launch events yesterday and to receive so much positive feedback about our new range of trans-seasonal items.

It was wonderful to visit the Year 10 girls and their Year 11 leaders at their camp this week and to see the girls fully embracing the activities on offer, despite the heat! Last Friday I also enjoyed spending time with the Year 2 girls on their first overnight school camp experience! It is certainly an exciting time at Lowther Hall at the moment with preparations for the launch of the Academic Wardrobe and the finalisation of Blinkbonnie House generating a great deal of activity around the campus. On Monday the Senior School girls will all move up into their 2018 classes as they commence their Orientation Program so this will be an opportunity for trying new things and making new connections. I look forward to seeing many parents at the Parents and Friends’ Association Lunch tomorrow and to catching up with others at the special events and ceremonies that are happening in the coming weeks!

Members of the School community are no doubt aware that, under the direction of experienced designer Jonathan Ward, a committee of dedicated students, Old Grammarians, staff and parents have been working for 24 months to develop a new wardrobe for the 2020 Lowther girl which will be phased in from the beginning of 2018.
