RECONCILIATION

Wandering Spirit

The inaugural Year 9 Rites of Passage program, Wandering Spirit, was an enormous success, giving the students the tools to develop healthy relationships with friends, elders, siblings and loved ones. Wellbeing groups one by one attended our Yeagarup Campus for the retreat part of the program, where they lived independently in small cabins in groups, taking responsibility for their own cooking, cleaning and washing.

ST HILDA’S WEEK – Celebrating 125 Years

Held in September, St Hilda’s Week included a variety of events for our community to celebrate St Hilda’s 125th anniversary.

Twilight Chapel Service

A beautiful service of thanksgiving that linked back to the 1994 consecration of the Chapel of St Hilda’s with many familiar faces in the congregation. Thank you to ex staff member, The Reverend Pamela Turner, Rector of St Michael’s Church, who led the service.

125 Music Concert

An incredible evening of musical talent, comradery and spirit. Junior and Senior School students shone on stage as they performed a variety of pieces to the crowd and to over 650 viewers at home on the livestream. A highlight from the evening was when some Old Scholars and a few current members of staff joined the students on stage to perform some pieces for the crowd. Old Scholar, Harriet Marshall (1991) was MC for the evening.

125 Assembly

The Junior School and Senior School 125 Assemblies paid tribute to our rich and incredible history of sparking extraordinary futures for girls, including musical performances, a history video and skits, blessings and cutting of anniversary cakes.

FUN RUN

The St Hilda’s fun run was a fun and enjoyable way to finish off St Hilda’s Week. We had both 2.5km and 5km course options to run, with both finishing at the Great Court for a celebration.

125 Gala – November 2021

A wonderful and spectacular celebration in the Great Court with all members of the St Hilda’s Community. The perfect way to cap off our 125th anniversary year.

Year 8 Camp

In October, St Hilda’s and Christ Church Grammar School Year 8 students joined for the inaugural Cape to Cave Outdoor Education experience. The expedition introduced students to a range of physical, social and cultural activities designed to build their confidence and appreciation for the environment. Activities included a hike on the Cape to Cape track, a series of further hikes between camp sites, an Indigenous Cultural session, caving at Giants Cave and abseiling. Students were also responsible for preparing and cooking their own meals.

Scotch / St Hilda’s Rowing

St Hilda’s and Scotch College have entered a partnership which will see the St Hilda’s Rowing Program re-located to the Scotch Boat Shed on Freshwater Bay from 2023. The Scotch Boat Shed is located one kilometre from our Bay View campus and will offer the girls more time on the water and more efficient movements back to campus after training. Renovations to upgrade the facilities and access to the water commenced in 2021.

Legally Blonde

The Senior School production of Legally Blonde was a wonderful reminder of the immense talent our students possess in all areas of The Arts. From the performers, to the musicians, backstage crew and AV team, the entire cast and crew worked hard to create a spectacular performance of the upbeat, hilarious and fun musical.
