It was a joyous morning today at Lowther Hall as we held our "Blessing of the Animals"! Girls in Grant House brought pet dogs (and a brave guinea pig) to the blessing held by our Chaplains, Reverend Emily and Reverend Fiona, and we gave thanks for them and the animals of the world.

I am excited to be heading down to Geelong today to cheer on our Senior School Rowing Squad at the Head of the Schoolgirls Rowing Regatta! Rowing is just one of the many cocurricular activities that are well underway this year, with girls passionately pursuing a variety of sports, musical endeavours, debating, chess and public speaking.

​In celebration of International Women’s Day we were delighted to be able to join with more than 200 members of the School Community for the annual Lowther Women Lunch on Thursday last week, where past and present students, staff, parents, board members, donors and friends of the School enjoyed a two course meal and a wonderful presentation by a panel of Lowther Women addressing the theme of “Balance for Better”.

Congratulations to Clarke for winning the Senior School House Peforming Arts Competition! Entirely student led, the girls write, dance, sing, act and stage manage a musical based on a theme, which this year was: "Take a walk on the wild side".

​I am looking forward to seeing many members of the School Community at the Lowther Women Luncheon next Thursday.

​As I was assisting my Year 7 class to get ready for their forthcoming assessments this week, I was reminded of the importance of organisation, preparation and repetition in learning.

Bonjour! We are delighted to welcome exchange students from our sister school, La Malgrange in Nancy, France.

​It has been another busy week at Lowther Hall. In Senior School the girls are rehearsing for the forthcoming House Performing Arts Competition and every day we see and hear the rehearsals and observe the increasing confidence and cohesion in the dances, acting and singing!

We are delighted to have received photos of students in Tanzania making use of donated items from our previous Lowther uniform! Thank you to our families for your donations, and to Mrs Anastasia Haikalis for facilitating this program.
