Principal's Message

Mr Alan Hope

As we start Term 4, it is a great opportunity to reflect on another term3 that was filled with community spirit, student achievement, and memorable moments across the whole school.

 

One of the standout features of this term has been the way our students and staff came together to support one another through a range of whole school events. Wellbeing Week was a fantastic success, with students embracing activities that promoted connection, resilience, and belonging. Our amazing Colour Run brought the school together in a fun and energetic celebration of fun and wellbeing, while R U OK? Day encouraged important conversations about looking after ourselves and checking in on those around us.

Our students also demonstrated outstanding generosity through Jersey Day, raising funds for Ronald McDonald House and showing that even small acts of kindness can make a significant difference. Book Week once again filled our school with creativity and laughter, with students and staff embracing the opportunity to celebrate the joy of reading through costumes and activities across the week.

 

This term also marked a significant milestone as we celebrated our Year 12 students. Their final weeks of school were filled with tradition and celebration, from themed dress-up days that created plenty of smiles to a memorable Formal and Graduation Ceremony that recognised the remarkable young people they have become. It was a fitting celebration of a cohort that has made a lasting contribution to our school community.

We are also incredibly proud of the success many of our Year 12 students have already achieved through early entry offers into university courses. These offers are a testament to their consistent effort, resilience, and commitment throughout their senior years. As they now prepare for their upcoming HSC examinations, we wish every one of them the very best. We know they will approach this next chapter with determination and confidence.

 

As we prepare for the warmer months, we would like to remind families of our school uniform expectations. Students are reminded to wear the correct summer uniform, including navy school shorts as part of the approved uniform. We also ask families to note that bike pants are not part of the school uniform and should not be worn in place of approved shorts. We appreciate your continued support in helping our students wear their uniform with pride and maintain the high standards that reflect our school community. 

Thank you for your continued partnership throughout another successful term. We look forward to welcoming students back for an exciting Term 4 as we continue working together to create futures for every student.
