Positive Feedback
Mrs Mizzi’s Year 12 Cert III in Fitness class visited The Oaks Retirement Village, where they conducted fitness sessions with the residents and received excellent feedback (see below). Congratulations to these students for being excellent ambassadors for our College.
“The feedback from the residents was overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the impressive efforts of your students during their fitness class today. Their enthusiasm, professionalism, and engagement left a lasting impact on everyone present. Please pass on my thanks—they should be immensely proud of themselves and the way they represented St Mary’s. Such exemplary conduct not only reflects their hard work but also enhances the community’s perception of the school.”
