The Awards Night is an entertaining night of student speeches and musical performances, as well as the recognition of academic achievement.

This year we also recognised the College Council and sub committee members, as well as the Parents of Performing Arts committee, for the significant role they play in shaping and supporting our school.

One of the highlights is the symbolic handing over of jackets from our outgoing College Captains to our new College Captains, at the conclusion of the evening.

Congratulations to all recipients.
