"Within and outside of the classroom, I formed invaluable connections to teachers, coaches and students across all year groups and the Queenwood community."
The experiences, relationships and opportunities provided to me by Queenwood have undoubtedly shaped my perspectives. Within and outside of the classroom, I formed invaluable connections to teachers, coaches and students across all year groups and the Queenwood community. Within this support network, I was able to laugh and learn from my mistakes, persevere through disappointment, develop a love for challenge and dare to succeed without fear of failure. These lessons learnt in rowing boats, percussion ensembles and debating rooms, translated to the classroom and supported my studies. I am grateful to have participated in Queenwood’s community of driven young women. During my own younger years, I learned what a big difference one small conversation or kind gesture can make as older students mentored and guided me. As a community prefect, I found myself drawing from my own experiences of failure, success, apprehension and excitement when participating in something new. I was eager to receive advice, encouragement and understanding along the way. I hope to carry these values of Truth, Courage and Service and also collaboration into the next stages of my education.
