FROM THE HEADMASTER The strong focus was on positive relationships, feeling welcomed, valued and accepted. • Four Year 9 students came to the aid of a young Prep girl who needed medical attention after falling over and another group of Senior School students assisted a Year 2 boy to rescue his toy from a tree. • The Old Guildfordian network rallying to provide support in so many ways to a fellow OG dealing with a challenging health diagnosis. • Old Guildfordians returning in strong numbers to celebrate with the 2018 Darlot Cup winning team at a lunch function which included all past winning teams. The little things matter; respect, integrity, compassion are all highly valued and we must continually reinforce the importance of good manners, discipline and an outward looking approach in which our students are always aware of the needs of others. This reinforces connection and our strong sense of community. Our beautiful grounds and the majestic Chapel of St Mary and St George have been shared by generations and they provide a link and thread that binds our broader community together symbolically. To inspire students to achieve personal excellence and to be outstanding citizens who work to create a loving, just and peaceful society. With a continued focus on servant leadership and the importance of giving to others in the community we will always work towards living the aspiration of our School purpose.
