Valedictory Evening

On Wednesday 22 November Heathmont staff and families came together to celebrate the Class of 2023 at the Valedictory evening. It was a special occasion where we acknowledged the achievements of our Year 12 students and reminisced on the journey they have taken to reach this milestone. It was also an opportunity to thank the many people who have encouraged, supported and guided these students to reach the end of their secondary years of education. Highlights from the night include enjoying a musical performance by Charlie Knutsen, the college captain’s final speeches and the presentation of subject and graduation certificates.
