We welcomed International Netball player Dr Clare Jones as our special guest at the 28th Annual Prize Giving ceremony on Thursday 2nd May.

Dr Jones spoke about her journey into sport.  She asked students to reflect on their own passions; whether it be art, writing or sport and reminded students that although at times they may feel they are faced with adversity, adversity can in fact be a superpower and that they must always enjoy the journey with a smile.

Prizes were presented to over 150 students who were awarded for high achievement, excellent attitude and public spirit within the community.  Although the names of many of the prize winners were known before the evening, there were surprise awards announced at the ceremony itself:

Congratulations to Alessia Licata and Zabriel Demillo (Vice Principals’ Awards) and Tom Stephens and Jenny Ngugi (Principal’s Award)

A huge number of children received nominations from staff and a scrupulous effort to be fair, resulted in the final list. We hope that students deserving of an award, but who did not receive one this year, will be recognised at Prize Giving celebrations in future years.
