Our Upper School students are in Sydney, Australia, for the 2026 Round Square International Conference! Joining 1,200 students worldwide, they’re exploring culture, service, and leadership while making lifelong connections. Thank you to Round Square for this opportunity!

A group of eleven people—eight students in school uniforms and three adults—stand in a row posing for a photo. The students wear green blazers, dark green skirts, white collared shirts, striped ties, and lanyards. In the background, a large digital screen shows the Barker College and Round Square International Conference 2026 branding above a dark backdrop.

A young woman with long dark hair kneels on the floor indoors, painting details onto a large cream-colored canvas spread out on tiled ground. She holds a paintbrush over red paint next to painted international flags, including South Korea, Brazil, and Pakistan. The rest of the banner features rows of handprints painted in a vibrant gradient of red, orange, yellow, green, and purple.

Two female students stand outdoors under a white tent canopy, participating in a clothing service project. They wear red short-sleeved shirts embroidered with "Barker," lanyards, and white protective gloves. A large pile of assorted garments sits on the table in front of them, along with empty clothes hangers. The student on the right holds up a grey shirt on a black hanger, while the student on the left looks down at the clothing pile.
