November remains a particularly eventful time for both our Year 11 and 12 students, as they complete their respective years. This year has gone by so quickly and I cannot believe our Class of 2022 have completed their formal secondary education. Preparation is well under way for the Class of 2023, for their concluding year of schooling.

The Year 12s had their WACE exams during November and as this is a culmination of the years’ hard work our thoughts were with them as they endeavoured to do their best and achieve results that will enable them to pursue further study at University or continue along their pathways. We also had our Year 12 Valedictory on Friday 18 November which was a brilliant night and appropriate way to end our class of 2022 years at school. As always I was extremely proud of our Year 12s individual accomplishments and sincerely hope they each find happiness and success in whatever life pursuits they choose.

As the school year has also now concluded for our Year 11 students, I congratulate them on their achievements thus far, and hard work throughout 2022. It was extremely pleasing to see the students celebrate the conclusion of their year at their river cruise. There was plenty of dancing, photos at the Photobooth, and a wonderful time was had by all. For those students who will be continuing their learning or training elsewhere or moving into employment, following their pathway next year, I wish all them all the very best in their future pursuits.

I would very much like to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday and look forward to the New Year and all its new opportunities.
