ONE STEP FROM EDEN SAFFRON LEW SERIES

ONE STEP FROM EDEN SAFFRON LEW SERIES

Sharing in learning is an integral part of the culture at Frensham Schools and being able to experience it with our community is something to be treasured.Īt Frensham, we have had the privilege of a series of events where we have been able to celebrate the term, as well as begin farewell celebrations for the Class of 2022.

Similarly, a few weeks ago, it was wonderful to be able to share in Book Week celebrations and parades across the school. Thank you to the staff and students involved.Īt Gib Gate, being able to have students and staff share in experiences like the Year 6 Legacy of Leaders presentation was a wonderful insight into the hard work and dedication that Year 6 students have shown this term. The Year 10 helpers and Year 12 students who were involved in the evening and day were a true representation of who we are as a school the Year 5 students reflected on how everyone was encouraging, how fun it was to make new friends and how much they enjoyed their lessons and activities. Welcoming Sample Boarder and Sample High School participants to Frensham was an instructive and fun experience for the girls and their families. This year however, we have been able to celebrate, and the best part is that we have been able to do it together, as a community.

This week, I was reflecting on what things looked like this time last year and I was filled with a sense of gratitude for being able to do ‘normal things’, things that we had taken for granted in years prior to the pandemic that were postponed or modified. Term 4 regular hours resume: Monday 10 October (12pm-5pm) Spring BreakĪs we approach the Spring holiday, I am sure that everyone is ready for some time to relax after a busy term of learning inside and outside the classroom. If you require a fitting, please book your appointment via the Ranier website: The Ranier Uniform Shop will be open on Wednesday 5 October 12.00pm – 5.00pm for fitting appointments and over the counter purchases. Ranier Uniform Shop – Opening Hours and Additional Trading Day We thank all staff for their work this term and wish all Frensham Schools students, staff and a restful and restorative vacation period ahead. I look forward to sharing this information with our community at Final Prayers in Term 4. With 100% of the funds raised to be directed towards the Bursary Fund, work is now underway to determine the way in which this will be distributed for maximum impact. Our thanks go to our Foundation Board, Director of Philanthropy Mrs Jackie Dalton, our willing volunteers and generous donors for the extraordinary effort, raising over $460,000 in just 24 hours. It was so exciting to see the generous support of our extended Frensham Schools community through Tuesday’s inaugural Giving Day in support of Winifred West Schools Foundation’s Bursary Fund. Wednesday afternoon’s Leadership Induction Service then saw the gracious handover of leadership from the Class of 2022 to the Class of 2023, and we look forward to working with all Year 12 students in their respective leadership portfolios from the beginning of Term 4. Wednesday morning’s Fellowship Breakfast and Service was a very special occasion, celebrating Year 12 students’ first day as members of Fellowship – and sincere thanks to the Fellowship Committee members who were able to join us in person and via Zoom for the Service. We thank all Year 12 students for their efforts and wish them the very best for their upcoming study period ahead of HSC Examinations commencing on 12 October. In the myriad celebrations outlined by Ms Tynan later in this newsletter, we have expressed our gratitude for the way in which the Class of 2022 have reinvigorated the enthusiasm and spirit of the student body as school life has emerged from COVID-19 restrictions. As Year 12 approach their final “sprint” as they enter the home stretch, we have been reflecting upon and celebrating their growth and contribution as the leaders of the School this year.
