Our Student Leaders

Loreto Kirribilli is shaped by a sense of community that extends far beyond the classroom. It is found in the traditions we share, the friendships we form, the encouragement we offer one another and the quiet, everyday moments that make each of us feel part of something larger than ourselves. It is this sense of belonging, built over generations, that makes Loreto such a special place.

At the heart of our school are the five values of our foundress, Mary Ward: Freedom, Justice, Sincerity, Verity and Felicity. These values are not simply part of our history; they continue to shape the way we learn, the way we treat one another and the people we aspire to become.

As we enter our Year of Freedom, I hope we can each find the courage to pursue what inspires us, to embrace what is unfamiliar and to grow. Equally, may we offer one another the space to do the same: to follow different paths, discover unexpected passions and contribute to our community in our own ways. There is something wonderful about being part of a school in which each person has something distinct to offer, yet we are united by a shared sense of purpose.

Alongside Vice Captain, Genevieve, and First Councillors Sienna, Eliza, and Chloe, I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve on the Student Executive for 2026-2027. Being elected School Captain is an incredible honour, and I look forward to giving back to this wonderful community. We recognise that we inherit these roles within a school shaped by the generosity and leadership of those who came before us, and we hope to honour their legacy through our own service to the school. Above all, we aspire to lead with kindness and courage, fostering an environment in which every student feels encouraged to participate, supported in her ambitions and valued for who she is.

Mary Ward’s vision of an education that empowers women to make a difference in the world remains as meaningful today as ever. This year, we can all carry that vision forward, through the opportunities we embrace, the compassion we extend to others, the convictions we uphold and the responsibility we take for our wider community.

May our Year of Freedom be one of possibility and purpose: a year in which we continue to learn from and celebrate one another, and strengthen the community to which we are so fortunate to belong.
