The Today Extra star shared a throwback photo of her school years in an article she penned for 9Honey on Tuesday.
In the black and white snap, a teenage Sylvia sported a huge smile as she donned her uniform hat from Brisbane State High School.
Sylvia shared the photo in a column where she wrote a review of the movie Inside Out 2 and likened it to her own feelings of anxiety as a young girl.

She said she often ‘grappled with some of the classic internal trash talk that runs through young, insecure minds’ growing up.
‘On the verge of entering grade 11, I wrote about the angst of matching board shorts to deck shoes, and my deeply held fear of not being selected for a representative netball team,’ she penned.
‘As the youngest of three siblings and nine cousins, my hand-me-down wardrobe did little to boost my confidence, while the braces I wore for almost two years placed me firmly in the friend zone with boys.
‘They are necessary and superficial things that you can fully appreciate as an adult but lament as an ungrateful, self-absorbed kid.’
