My Passport

What is my Pymble Passport?

Your Pymble Passport is a digital space to collect your experiences that demonstrate your skills, growth, character and impact. It is a space where you can reflect on your accomplishments, celebrate your achievements and collect things you are proud of to share with others.

Below are some example passports from previous years to help you get some ideas.

Your ability to write about yourself will help you to build skills to effectively communicate to others who you are. This is important when writing a personal statement used in some university applications to help institutions to better understand what your passions and aspirations are.
