Handover: What Will You Do With What You've Been Given? 

Throughout 2026, our College theme has been Building People with God. Having explored Design, Foundations and Construction, we now turn our attention to handover. 

Handovers are significant. They involve trust, responsibility, opportunity, and sometimes a little risk! They also remind us that what we invest in others doesn't end when our time together finishes. 

As our Year 12 students prepare to leave Endeavour, we've had some wonderful glimpses of what this means. 

Our College Captains, Jemma and Koen, led a terrific chapel in Week 1, inviting Year 12 students to reflect on their experiences, challenges, faith and lessons learned. Their honesty, maturity and encouragement were a joy to witness. 

This week, our Student Spiritual Leader, Maddie Goss, shared her deeply personal journey from growing up without faith to discovering Jesus. She spoke courageously about experiences of bullying, struggling with self-worth, the importance of friendships, and eventually discovering God's love and hearing the words, 'You are worthy.' 

As we reflect on what we do here at Endeavour, it is a privilege to witness young people growing into who they are becoming. 

In Philippians 1:6, Paul expresses confidence that God will continue the good work he has begun. None of us is finished yet. We all need grace, encouragement and people willing to invest in us. 

That's the heart of what we do at Endeavour, in partnership with families, students and God. We don't always see where the journey leads, but we trust that what has been invested will continue to grow.
