Principal's Report

Congratulations and Farewell

I had the great pleasure of being at Monday night's Year 6 Graduation Ceremony. As they have all year, our Graduating class for 2018 represented the school and themselves in a fantastic way. All of the students spoke very well when giving speeches and it was a great chance to celebrate the time they spent at Marlborough.  We will miss all of our graduating students and look forward to watching you from afar as you grow and succeed in the world.

 

Every year we also say farewell to Marlborough families who are leaving our school.  I wish all of you the very best in the future, welcome you to come and visit us again and hope that all of your children have continued success with their education. Farewell to the following families:

 

Anthony, Anwin, Boye, Chim, Crosby, Grech, Harrold, Legaspi, Milne, Mucha, Pretty, Rana, Raymer, Stevens, Tehlan, Thaduri, van Peelen, Vines and Whitehead.

 

We also have some staff leaving us at the end of this year. To Ashley Graham, Natalie Tzanatos, Felicity Cameron and Carolyn Timmer, thank you for your outstanding contribution to our school and I wish you all the very best in your future careers.

 

Thank you to all the students, staff and families of Marlborough that make this a very special community.  You all have made an important contribution towards the positive culture of learning at our school. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday break and in your own way get to celebrate this special time of the year with those that you care about.

2018 Award Winners

Congratulations to our 2018 Award winners. Across the school it has been great to see so many students strive to do their Personal Best academically, in sports and in community service. It was very difficult to decide who gets these awards as there were so many potentially worthy recipients.

 

To all the award winners and everyone else, please continue to strive to do your best in everything you do in 2019 and beyond.
