Year 12 - Celebration Day

STRIVE: Last week we held Celebration Day for our Year 12 students.

They had breakfast, followed by an amazing colour run obstacle course.

There were plenty of laughs and a few changes of clothes, by not only the students, but the staff as well!  Congratulations to our brilliant Year 12's and their brilliant teachers.

Great work to everyone involved, and great to see so many students helping out, so many students demonstrating our values.  Great fun had by all!

UNITE: Our Year 12 students also had a dress-up day and the theme was 'OP SHOP' where we saw some great outfits around the College and smiles all round!

We also had some games for staff and students at lunch time, which included a competitive game of tug of war.

There were lots laughs and the highlight of the day was the students defeating the spirited staff in the final round!

YEAR 12 - Final Assembly

RESPECT: Congratulations to our Year 12 students who enjoyed their final assembly last week! They are getting closer to the end of their secondary school journey and we are incredibly proud of their conduct, ethics and dedication.
