Parent Committee - Year 7 Dinner

While our Year 7 students enjoyed an evening of laughter and fun at their first social, a group of parents took the opportunity to connect over dinner nearby. The casual get-together offered the perfect chance to share stories, compare first-term experiences, and build new friendships within the year group community.

The atmosphere was relaxed and full of good humour, with conversation flowing easily as everyone reflected on the busy start to secondary school life. Many parents appreciated the chance to meet others outside of the usual school drop-offs and events, strengthening the sense of connection that underpins our supportive school community.

Thank you to Inoka (Parent Committee) for organising the evening and to all who attended. It’s wonderful to see both students and families finding ways to celebrate this exciting new chapter together. We are especially excited for those that have chosen to join the Parent Committee!

Deputy Principal - Years 9 & 12
