Principals Message

Dear School Community,
As we come to the end of another wonderful school year, it was a privilege to celebrate the achievements of our students at our Final Principal Awards Assembly. This event holds special significance as it is our final opportunity, as a whole school, to farewell the Grade 6 class of 2025, and an opportunity to recognise students across the school who have excelled academically, demonstrated our school values with consistency, and stepped into leadership roles for the year ahead.
We proudly acknowledge the recipients of our Academic Excellence Awards, GPA Perfect 4 Awards, GPA Bronze and Silver Awards, the winning House in our Perpetual House Cup, and, of course, our newly appointed 2026 Student Leaders.
We congratulate every student recognised, and extend warm thanks to our families, staff and community partners for supporting our learners to achieve their best.
