House spirit has soared this week at Lowther Hall with the Junior School students in Years 4 to 6 participating enthusiastically in their House Swimming Carnival today. It was wonderful to see so many parents supporting this event.

​We held our annual Academic Awards Ceremony last week to celebrate the outstanding VCE results of 2016. Awards for Study Scores over 40 and ATAR Scores over 95, as well as awards for outstanding achievement in Mathematics, Literature, Science,

​It has been wonderful to have been able to connect with many parents over the last 10 days – at Information Evenings, Commencement Services and special events. The feedback that I receive from parents is very valuable in continuing to ensure that we provide the very best educational service to our girls and families.

​Be guided on a tour of our School by Lowther Hall students! Our ‘School Tours’ Day will be held this Saturday 11 February. Kindergarten to Year 12 tours will commence at 9.30am, and Year 7 to Year 12 tours will commence at 11.00am.

It is only the second day of term and already there is so much to celebrate and reflect on at Lowther Hall! I enjoyed reconnecting with many families yesterday morning at the front of the School, where our Senior School Captains had set up a very festive entry point adorned with balloons!

What a way to begin the first day of Term 1! Our Senior Rowing Squad was out nice and early this morning when this photo was captured by their coach, Nicola. Welcome to 2017 to all our Lowther girls and staff, we look forward to another fantastic year ahead!

​The outstanding 2016 VCE results at Lowther Hall in 2016 are a credit to the hard work and dedication of students and teachers alike, with 13 percent of the Year 12 cohort scoring an ATAR (Australian Tertiary Entrance Rank) of 99 or above placing them in the top 1% of the nation.

We are very excited to celebrate the achievements of Aimee (Year 5) and Makayla (Year 6), who last weekend both attended the Oceania Taekwondo Championships in Fiji and came away with Gold and Silver medals!
