Wrapping Up the Year with Our International Students 

To celebrate a successful 2024 and our wonderful international students, we organised a series of activities in the final week of the school year.

The week began with a lively debate session, where international students were split into two teams. It was fantastic to see their passion and enthusiasm as they presented strong and thoughtful arguments. The debate was incredibly close, and every participant shone with confidence and teamwork.

 

Our international students also left heartfelt messages for the new cohort arriving next year. These messages, filled with advice and encouragement, were included in the updated International Student Brochure and Information Booklet. Their contributions were invaluable, and we know new students will find them both welcoming and helpful.

We continued the celebrations with a festive Christmas event, featuring a Secret Santa gift exchange. It was lovely to see students strengthening friendships and sharing the joy of the season with one another.

To round off the week—and the year—we held a sports session on the oval. Some students enjoyed a game of basketball, while others kicked a footy. It was a fantastic way to end the year with laughter, teamwork, and fresh air.

We are so proud of our international students for their achievements, their support for one another, and the positive energy they brought to our school community.

Wishing all our international students, their families, and parents a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May your holidays be safe, joyful, and filled with special moments.

Kind regards,
