We know that feeling connected to a community is highly beneficial, and acts as a significant protective factor for our girls. To this end, during Terms 2 and 3, the Years 7 and 8 students at Lowther Hall have worked together to develop better their understanding of their capacity to ‘shape their world’ as they navigate developing their own community within their section of the School.

Our Year 12 girls finished their final day at Lowther Hall recently with their annual tradition of throwing their hats from the Mansion balcony.

Each year, every Year 12 girl receives a yellow rose from a Prep student and, in turn, presents her with seeds, symbolic of the growth that we anticipate for her as she moves through the years at Lowther Hall.

Stephanie (Year 9), Maddison (Year 10), Caroline (Year 11) and Mardi (Year 9) have become Victorian Champions winning the All Schools Track Relay U18 4x400m at Lakeside Stadium.

Our Year 6 Environment Captains have launched a new initiative to encourage all Junior School girls to be mindful of the environment by bring with them each Wednesday, lunchboxes that are free of rubbish and excess waste.

Our Annual Music Concert will be held on Wednesday 9 September at the Melbourne Recital Centre. The evening will showcase an array of diverse musical and vocal talent. Performances from the School’s Orchestras, Stage Band, Concert Bands, Choirs, Ensembles and Soloists will showcase the talents of girls from Year 3 to Year 12.

As part of Dairy Australia’s Picasso Cows Program, Junior School students have been learning all about the Australian dairy industry, and were provided with the opportunity to decorate a life-size fibre glass cow named Cogneeta!
