2026 Term 1

  • Brave Enough - Upper School Prefect Juliet reflects on how giving things a go, from knitting club to fencing to the euphonium, taught her that the moments that matter most are the ones where you were brave enough to try.
  • Choose Kindness - Prefect Sophie shares the advice she would give her younger self – to ask for help, smile more and always choose kindness – in a speech that reminds us how small acts of warmth can shape a whole school community.
  • Club Culture - From human rights debates to handcrafted teddies for trauma survivors, Wenona’s student-run clubs are already making their mark in 2026.
  • Courage to Begin - Prefect Abi used her Assembly address to make a candid case for choosing action over comfort. Drawing on the Prefects’ ‘Give more, Grow more’ initiative, a self-taught harmonica habit and the humbling aftermath of a speeding fine, she reminded her peers that growth begins not with perfection, but with the willingness to start.
  • Giving More, Growing More - Head Prefect Poppy reflects on goals, perspective, and the year ahead.
  • Look Up - Community and Service Learning Prefect Grace reflects on hiking New Zealand’s Routeburn Track and the lessons the trail offers for school life – to embrace challenges, lean on friends and always remember to look up and enjoy the journey.
  • Parent Partnership - Starting at a new school can feel like stepping into the unknown, for students and parents alike. At Wenona, the journey towards connection begins even before the academic year commences and continues through a calendar of events designed to bring our community together.
  • Wenona Olympian - Tonight, when ski mountaineering makes its Olympic debut in Bormio, our Alumna Lara Hamilton (2015) will be on the start line as one of the first Australians to contest the sport at a Winter Games.
  • Young Diplomat - Accepted while still in Year 10, Emily (Year 11) joined an elite group of young Australians on a month-long diplomatic tour of Europe.
