Final Assembly

As part of the Year 12's celebration day, we had a student-led celebration that brought together students, staff, and families for one final gathering before graduation. With a Disney theme woven throughout the event, the assembly reflected on the journey of the Class of 2026, and the many people who have invested in their story. 

The assembly was filled with humour, with the Disney Pixar lamp (aka Josh A) jumping across the stage as part of the opening credits, and Sabrina Solomon’s roasting the Year 12s in the keynote address. Live music performances, by our talented Year 12s, were coupled with the Year 12 highlight’s video. Gratitude was expressed as Mrs Carlson and Mr Wright, along with Naomi E, Euan P and Lily B reflected on 13 years of schooling. Spearheaded by our dedicated team of Year 12 captains, Meg D, Zac K, Emily P, Ambrie D and Jo M, the whole school event celebrated community, with the inclusion of a tribal tournament game, based on Disney questions. 

Keeping in theme, the Gym was appropriately decked out with past student photos mounted on old fashioned movie reels, giant red and white striped cardboard popcorn containers - topped with yellow balloons, A1 sized movie posters - photoshopped with the Year 12’s faces, and gold coloured tinsel adorning the stage wall. All students looked amazing in their Disney costumes, some of which were homemade. Most importantly, the assembly remained centred on Jesus, acknowledging Him as the true author of our story and the guide for every chapter yet to come. 

As our Year 12s prepare for the next act, they were encouraged to trust in God. Mrs Solomons reminded students to “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3:5-6) … She went on to say that ‘the verse doesn't say, “Trust yourself because you have all the answers.” It says, “Trust in the Lord.” It reminds us that our understanding is limited, but God's isn't… Remember that your life is not dependent on having everything figured out.’ It’s about daily choosing to commit our ways to the one who knows us best.
