Open Day After the disappointment of cancelling our Open Day last year due to COVID-19 it was wonderful to open our doors once again to the public on Saturday 13 March. The day provided families with a glimpse of what Stuartholme has to offer. Guests were entertained by our music ensembles, choirs and drama performances in the Theatre, enticed to purchase some treats from our business ventures and challenged to join the fun with co-curricular sport. In the classrooms, academic offerings were displayed and expert staff on hand to answer questions. For those who could not attend in person, a livestream of the event was hosted by Channel 9’s Melissa Downes. Melissa wandered through the school, talking to our Principal Kristen Sharpe, students, parents and teachers about Stuartholme. Viewers could also join Melissa for a short tour Boarding House and interviews with boarders and our Dean of Boarding. While Open Day only happens once a year, future families can book to attend one of the regular School Tours via the website.
