Our Pymble German students from Years 8, 9, and 10 Our Pymble German students from Years 8, 9, and 10 recently enjoyed a fantastic cultural immersion. They attended the German Film Festival at Palace Cinema, Moore Park, organised by the Goethe Institut, to watch the adventure film Die Chaosschwestern und Pinguin Paul. This provided a brilliant opportunity to enhance their language listening skills while enjoying a captivating storyline.
 
To top it off, students then experienced an authentic German hot lunch at Munich Brauhaus, The Rocks. They feasted on giant brezels, schnitzel, bratwurst, eisbein, and much more. What a wonderful way to celebrate all things German!

This week, our Pymble community celebrated the sec This week, our Pymble community celebrated the second meeting of our Year 11 and Year 5 Mentoring Program! This wonderful initiative fosters connection and guidance, with each Year 11 student paired with a buddy in Year 5. It's been heartwarming to witness the enthusiasm and care from both groups, as they build trust, confidence and a sense of belonging through shared activities and conversations.

During this week's session, the Year 5 students brought along their vision boards, showcasing their interests and future aspirations, which provided fantastic conversation starters for their Year 11 mentors. It was uplifting to see the younger students' curiosity about secondary school life and the genuine connections forming between the girls.

This program truly encourages leadership and responsibility in our senior students while offering our Year 5 students a valuable source of encouragement and friendship.

Jersey Day is one of the most special days in our Jersey Day is one of the most special days in our Boarding calendar. Every year our Pymble community unites to honour the memory of three cherished Boarding sisters, Alanda Clark, Jane Gay and Prudence Papworth, who were tragically lost in 1993. This poignant day reminds us of the profound gift of Boarding and the strong, enduring ties that connect us all. It was truly heartwarming to see our Boarders proudly adorning their jerseys today, in a beautiful tribute to their legacy.

This wonderful event was the initiative of our Head Boarders, Sophie and Celeste, to bring together boarders from Sydney Metro schools for a social occasion. Most importantly, it raised crucial funds for the CWA (Country Women's Association), which will directly support families on the Mid North Coast impacted by recent floods through their disaster relief fund.
 
It was a truly memorable day of community, camaraderie, and colour - all for a wonderful cause!

Recently, some of our staff, including Director of Boarding Carolyn Burgess and Deputy Principal Lamia Rockwell, were delighted to connect with prospective families and our Pymble community in Dubbo. In addition to meeting many new faces at the expo, our team celebrated together on Friday evening with a gathering of families and friends at Press Dubbo.

This National Reconciliation Week, our Secondary S This National Reconciliation Week, our Secondary School held a special assembly to reflect on our shared history and to explore how we can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. Our students proudly wore yellow ribbons in support of Children's Ground, an organisation dedicated to First Nations people's self-determination and the wellbeing of their children. 

The assembly was enriched by a Q&A with Year 12 students Dezi and Maya on their Indigenous-focused major works, an inspiring Indigenous dance by Sahara (Year 12), a thoughtful presentation from Year 10, and a performance by our school choir. 

These moments of connection and learning reinforce our Pymble commitment to reconciliation. Join us this weekend as we host our annual First Nations Round of Sport!
