Year 12 

Academic Assembly

Academic Awards

The Final Mass was followed by the presentation of the Academic Awards for Year 12, 2023. The First in Course Award went to the student who achieved the Number 1 ranking in each HSC course, as measured by School based Assessment. Merit Awards recognised those students who came second in their cohort.

The Dux for 2023 will be based on the highest ATAR rank and will be presented early in the 2024 school year at a ceremony here at the College.

Awards for Application to Learning were then presented to students who had consistently applied themselves to their own learning, and at the same time promoted and respected the learning of others.  

Congratulations to all the students whose excellence and application to their studies was recognised during the Awards Ceremony.

Finally, the following Special Academic Awards were presented.

Australian Council for Health, Physical Education and Recreation Award

This award recognises students who have excelled in these fields. Elora Guirguis received an award for PDHPE and Ava De Luca received an award for Community and Family Studies.

University of Notre Dame Academic Science Award

The University of Notre Dame Academic Science Award goes to the most consistent and accomplished performance in Science courses. The University of Notre Dame Academic Science Award for 2022 was presented to Elora Guirguis.

CEDWW University Scholarship

The Teacher Education Scholarships are awarded by the Catholic Education Diocese of Wagga Wagga each year to five Year 12 students across the Diocese. The recipients are excellent students who demonstrate dedication to their learning, and are committed to the values of Catholic Education. On completion of their HSC, these students seek to enrol in an undergraduate teacher education pathway so they can become qualified Primary and/or Secondary school teachers. 

Valued at $20,000, the scholarship supports students to study and guarantees them a permanent full-time teaching position at a school within the Wagga Wagga Diocese at the conclusion of their degree. Congratulations to Annie Corbett who was one of the recipients this year.
