So what's on now at Marsden?

At Marsden we have a busy schedule of events that include parents and members of our community; fabulous Innovation speakers, Parent/Daughter breakfasts, School productions and Open day experiences, to name a few. Here's what's on now, or coming up soon...

Open Days and Time in Class

We prepare our students for their world, through Marsden’s future focused learning programmes and our Visible Wellbeing™ approach. 

 

We hold an open event every term. Our next Open Day is on Sunday 16 May.

Parent/Daughter Breakfasts

Breakfasts have become a very enjoyable tradition at Marsden. They are held at alternative year levels with Fathers or Mothers and their Daughters in Y7–13 and a special Fathers' Day breakfast for our Primary and Preschool dads each year.  Parents will be emailed when it is their turn to enjoy breakfast with us. This is an informal occasion and an opportunity to meet socially with other parents. All families will be welcomed by our Principal, Narelle Umbers.

Mother Daughter Dinner

Each year we hold a Year 12 Mother/Daughter dinner which is an informal occasion and an opportunity for Mums and their daughters to meet socially in their year group and a chance to get to know friends and share common interests.  They are joined by the Principal, Leadership Team, Tutors and Deans. In 2020 we were fortunate to host Dr. Ashley Bloomfield for dinner. It was a privilege to hear his insights on the nature of leadership in these extraordinary times, such invaluable advice to our girls preparing for their year as school leaders in 2021. 

Chicago, the musical

Rehearsals are well underway for our 2021 production of the musical Chicago. Our leads have even undertaken training with professional accent coach Sarah Valentine who is helping them perfect their American accents. Mark your diaries for the performance dates 25–28 May. More details to follow closer to the time.
