What makes Loreto unique is not only the vertical pastoral system or having subjects such as Integrated Learning,
but the people which makes this school. The dedicated staff, my supportive parents and wonderful peers have guided
and inspired me.
We are liberated, empowered and motivated to use our individual gifts. Having an older sister go through Loreto
Normanhurst before me, I thought I knew how the school worked, but I was unaware of the little things that make
Loreto Normanhurst truly special. The best way to sum up it up is through using the FACE acronym.
I personally have gained different yet equally valuable life lessons throughout my journey at Loreto in comparison
with my elder sibling- although we lived under the same roof and share the same love for our school.
Coming to Loreto Normanhurst, or the Loreto Normo Experience will be different to the person next to you, but
one thing that is integral is the Loreto values of Mary Ward.
In this years theme of Felicity, we are all called to embrace every opportunity we are given with a genuine nature
and a spirit of optimism. Through our acts of generosity both within and outside of Loreto, we hope to promote joy
and bring happiness into the lives of others.
With my final year drawing to a close, I look towards the future, hopeful. Hopeful, because although 2016 will bring
its challenges and will also bring its triumphs, I have been privileged to experience an education which provides me
with the skills and attitudes toultimately change the world, just as Mandela envisioned.

Now that we have entered our final year at Ivanhoe Girls, we feel a true sense of appreciation towards
the supportive community we have been surrounded by. The focus on developing healthy relationships
between students and teachers provides a unique foundation to enable girls to reach their full potential.
This environment allows us to face both social and academic challenges with confidence.
In particular, this belief in our abilities encourages girls to step out of their comfort zone and participate in
the myriad of co-curricular activities offered. Personally, the opportunities we have been given in sport,
debating and music have created unforgettable memories which we will always cherish. Additionally
participation in these activities has allowed us to make friends with a wider range of students. These are
all aspects of Ivanhoe Girls which make the School a happy place to learn.
Being conscious of the privilege of attending Ivanhoe Girls is a source of motivation to give back to the
wider community. We admire the dedication of girls who consistently donate their time and effort to worthy
causes. We aim to lead the Class of 2016 to see our last year as an opportunity to give back to the huge
support network we have had over the past six years. Our year level is a highly socially aware group of
young women which is why the notion of service will be an integral part of our final year. We are looking
forward to supporting our peers through both their successes and disappointments and are sure they will
achieve incredible feats. We hope to represent the School and our year level in an honourable and
truthful way, giving the school community the recognition it deserves.
