Michelle Wakim (’14)

Michelle is the recipient of the inaugural Helpmann Academy Mentorship, a partnership with Solstice Media to cultivate the next generation of arts reviewers. From July, Michelle will be partnered with a mentor from InReview (a new sub-site of InDaily) who will help with building her skills in the art of review writing, aiming to produce a number of pieces to be published on InReview. We acknowledge InDaily for Michelle’s photo and further information about the mentorship can be found through this InDaily link: https://indaily.com.au/inreview/2021/04/29/announcing-the-winner-of-the-inaugural-helpmann-academy-inreview-mentorship/

Vale Norman Bennett

We were saddened to learn that Current School Grandparent Norman Bennett passed away on Sunday 25 April 2021. Norman was a lay minister and in this capacity, covered the Chaplain’s role in the past at Westminster from time to time. Our thoughts are with Norman’s wife Val and family, including grandson Fin (Year 12) and Old Scholar Sam Bolch (’05).
