Celebrating Growth Through the IB Learner Profile 

As we settle into the final term of the year, we continue to see our students embody the values of the IB learner profile in meaningful ways. They are becoming increasingly open-minded, engaging with diverse perspectives and embracing new ideas with curiosity and respect. Their ability to listen, learn, and collaborate across differences is a testament to the inclusive spirit of our College. 

We are proud of how our students demonstrate caring, not only in their friendships and classroom interactions, but also in their wider contributions to the community. Whether through service initiatives, peer support, or simple acts of kindness, they continue to show empathy and compassion in action. 

Our learners are also proving themselves to be risk-takers, stepping outside their comfort zones to explore new challenges. From public speaking and creative projects to leadership roles and academic pursuits, they are showing courage and resilience in the face of uncertainty. 

Importantly, they are becoming more reflective, taking time to consider their learning, their goals, and their growth. This self-awareness is helping them make thoughtful decisions and take ownership of their journey. 

As our 2025 Year 12 students complete their final exams, we extend our heartfelt congratulations and wish them every success in the next chapter of their lives. We also send our warmest wishes to all members of our community celebrating Diwali. May this festival of light bring joy, peace, and prosperity to you and your families.
