2022 Awards and Graduation Ceremony

17 November 2022

The College's annual Awards Day Ceremony was held on Thursday at HOTA. The day was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate student achievements for 2022. Our Year 6 students received certificates which marked their progression to Secondary school. For our Year 12s, the day honoured their graduation from school. The College band, along with vocal soloists, provided entertainment for the day. Principal June Melbourne was surprised with a special tribute - staff and students singing her the song, "Thank you for being a friend."

See below for a full list of award recipients. Congratulations to all of our award winners.
