A Time of Growth and Gratitude
As we draw the year to a close, it is with mixed emotions that I reflect on my time at Brigidine College. This year has been one of transformation, growth, and unwavering support, not only from our incredible students but from each member of our community who has made this place what it is.
I feel deeply grateful to have had the privilege to serve this community as Principal. Brigidine is a school that stands as a beacon of excellence, a place where our shared values of respect, integrity, and kindness shine brightly. It has been an honour to witness the dedication, resilience, and passion that each of you brings to our school. From our students who continue to inspire with their curiosity and determination, to our staff who work tirelessly to foster an environment of care and academic rigour, to our parents who offer support, trust, and collaboration — each one of you has contributed to making Brigidine a truly special place.
As I prepare to embark on a new journey, I carry with me fond memories of the moments we have shared: the pride of watching students achieve their dreams, the joy of seeing our staff grow professionally and personally, and the sense of community that makes Brigidine so much more than a school. I am especially grateful for the relationships that have flourished over the years. These connections, built on mutual respect and a shared commitment to excellence, are the heart of Brigidine, and they will remain in my thoughts as I step into a new chapter.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to each of you for your support, dedication, and kindness throughout my tenure. It has been a true privilege to serve alongside such a remarkable group of people. As I take my leave at the conclusion of this year, I do so with a deep sense of pride in all that we have accomplished together.
Brigidine College will always hold a special place in my heart. I leave knowing that the spirit of our community will continue to thrive, and I look forward to seeing the incredible future that lies ahead for each and every one of you.
Thank you for making this journey unforgettable. With warmest wishes for the future, I remain forever grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of this wonderful community.
God bless you and your families.
With fondest regards,
Sharyn Quirk
Principal
