Dear Parents and Guardians,
I am delighted to share a special moment of reflection and celebration with you, as we mark 105 years of Camberwell Girls.
In our Secondary School Assembly yesterday, we shared with students and staff a beautiful scanograph created by the Camberwell Girls Art Department of the school’s iconic Moreton Bay Fig Tree – a commemorative gift to the whole school that honours both our history and heritage. See above.
This tree, a feature of the original Torrington homestead, has stood watch over our school since we moved to this site in 1927. It has borne witness to generations of students and staff, shaded gatherings, marked milestones, and served as a silent constant in a changing world.
In the artwork, the deep green leaves glow against a velvet-black background, capturing the strength and vitality of the tree. The emerging red of the fig buds symbolises renewal and the promise of continued growth – echoing the journey of our school and the spirit of its community.
Art connects us – across time, generations, and shared experience. This piece was created with joy and reflection, as a tribute not only to nature’s quiet grandeur but to the enduring heart of Camberwell Girls.
The gifted print will become part of our school’s permanent collection – although I’m quietly hopeful it might find a home in my office.
With best wishes,
Debbie Dunwoody
Principal
