What Makes a PLC girl?

PLCA’s core values are central to the school, and students embody these values in all of their ventures. On the sporting field, in the classroom, and in ensembles and orchestras, these values are at the forefront of all achievements. PLCA girls are charismatic, they approach every task with integrity. No matter the result, the girls always try their absolute hardest, and help others in the process.

One of my fondest PLCA memories is driving down to Coffs Harbour on our 2021 year 11 camp. This camp was one of the most enjoyable schooling experiences. Together, year 11 overcame high ropes courses, surfing and got to share lots of laughs. Shoutout to ‘Chad’ who we missed on the bus ride…

PLCA girls are different because when they start each year, a sense of community and connection is built. This is a central component to the characteristics of a PLCA girl, as no girl is ever alone in their choices- there is always an army of hardworking and supportive peers and teachers ready to help any girl in need. PLCA girls are able to thrive in their environment because of this close interconnection between year groups, which really adds to why the school is different from all of the other independent schools across the New England region.

PLCA is one of the best schools in the New England region for so many reasons. PLCA caters for the interests of all girls and students are not limited if their interests are sport based, creative arts based, or neither. The opportunities offered by the school truly do set it apart and it is within the purple walls that these girls in these waves of green tartan grow and develop into women of tomorrow.
