🎓 Year 12 Final Week! 🎓
As we head into our final few days of Term 3, our Year 12 students are wrapping up their secondary school journey for the very last time!
It’s been a fun-filled week of celebrations, starting Monday with Wear Your Team Colours, followed by PJ Day yesterday and Anything But a School Bag today! 🎒❌
We’ve seen some interesting choices — buckets, rubbish bins (new ones, we hope! 😂) and even a shopping trolley! 🛒
Tomorrow, we’ll celebrate our Year 12s with a big breakfast before their final farewell assembly on Friday.
We’ll miss you, Class of 2026! 💙🎓
