From Year 10
This week marked a significant milestone as students conclude their lessons in the academic year of Year 10 in 2026. The last two weeks have been notably busy as our Year 10 students to prepare for their examination.
In Wellbeing Session this week, our Year 10 students recently had the valuable opportunity to hear from seven parents who generously volunteered their time to speak about their careers, educational pathways, and life experiences. Parents shared their personal journeys, highlighting the different routs they took after school, the challenges they faced, and the skills and qualities that helped them achieve success in their chosen fields. The presentation provided students with a meaningful opportunity to ask questions, learn from real-world experiences, and better understand the importance of making informed decisions about their future goals. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Ms Shnai Abdulamir, Ms Thanh Brown, Mrs Cherie Clonan, Mr Russell Jenkins, Mr Glen Kennedy, Ms Annie Percy and Mr Tim Young for their contribution and openly shared their stories, experiences, and advice.

Today, we had the incredible opportunity to host three parent gust speakers who opened our eyes to the world of future career possibilities. Representing completely different industries, each speaker shared a unique roadmap of their professional journeys and it was great to hear from them as they very much inspired all of us today.

On Monday we got to listen to three male parents apart of our St Aloysius Community. One thing that came up in every conversation was the fact that not knowing what you want to do is completely ok. I know for myself and I am sure my fellow peers don't know exactly what we want to do after school. But the beneficial information the speakers presented was their story and the journey they took to get to the profession of their choice.

On Monday the 9th of November, the Year Tens had the opportunity to listen to four parents from the St Aloysius Community. Gathered with all the girls in the year, we were privileged to hear the journeys and career pathways from each of these females, and also the challenges that helped them grow. I think on behalf of the whole year, we were all really grateful to get advice from these beautiful people and that we all left feeling really inspired.
Thank you to Ms Ma for organising this, and for all the parents who came in!

On Monday, the 9th of November, the Year 10 students had the opportunity to hear from the parents of our classmates about choosing careers and future pathways. The St Aloysius girls had the pleasure of meeting four wonderful speakers who shared their personal journeys to their current careers, as well as the choices and pathways they took to reach where they are today. During the two hours we spent with them, the students of St Aloysius gained a great deal of valuable information to help guide us in our future studies and encourage us to take risks and work towards the goals we aspire to achieve. Overall, the student of St Aloysius are very grateful to have such an opportunity. And thank all the parents who came into school to enlighten us with such information.
