Awards
Ivanhoe Girls’ believes in acknowledging dedicated effort which serves others in the School and the broader community and which represents for each student her personal and social growth through sustained commitment in Senior School. From the House system, through each major activity area such as debating, drama, music and sport, right up to the highest level of School Colours, we recognise outstanding effort through a coherent and highly valued system of awards. Because the awards are earned by meeting clear and transparent participation and performance criteria, the system strongly supports the personal development of every girl by enabling her to know with a sense of certainty the commitments she needs to undertake to qualify for her next award level. The School’s awards system also underpins an important element of the School’s ethos in showing the value we place on affirming and celebrating accomplishment gained through hard work, determination, team work and perseverance.
