Last Month's Highlights
​
Wednesday, 17 May
Student Concert
Yixian, Ashley, Jack, Sophia, Liria, Lindi, JK, Lydia, Eloise, Endy, Vince, and Pinhan!
Across vocals, piano, guitar, and violin, you guys stunned a crowd of students and staff. I'll never forget this experience of helping you showcase your talent and raw emotion. It's safe to say that Chuan and Brighton would echo this sentiment wholeheartedly.
​
Pyjama Day
LOL that was fun too.

Friday, 19 May
3 on 3 Basketball Tournament
I have to come clean here... I underestimated your basketball ability. You guys hustled, swung the ball, flexed your handles, and swished a couple of stepback threes. Damn. Good game. To all of you who participated.
But at the top of the heap, big congrats to Hot Hand for claiming the 2023 Taylors College Basketball Championship! Can we talk about that game-winning free throw with 0 seconds on the clock, tie game? Clutch gene, ice in the veins, cold-blooded assassin. Mamba. MJ. Jimmy?
​
SRC Alumni Q&A
The Taylors SRC worked with alumni Devanshi, Ivan, and Xinyi to pull off an entertaining and insightful panel talk about life at the University of Sydney.

End of Course Celebration & Party
To our amazing students who finished their Taylors course, congratulations, best of luck, and much love! Thanks for your laughs, tears, dancing, and snacking. I’ll repeat what I said at the Refectory – you’re all beautiful people, inside and out. I’m grateful to have been part of your journey.
​
Enjoy your holidays! Phew. Get some rest, have a laugh, fall in love, grow, explore!
