ºÚÁÏÉçÇø

After 26 years as a much loved Junior School and teacher librarian, Mrs Sonja Holden is hanging up her library books for the very last time. Sonja looks back on the many changes she has seen but the one thing that has remained the same is the strong sense of community among students, families, staff and friends of ºÚÁÏÉçÇø.

Joy for students following outstanding HSC results, with ºÚÁÏÉçÇø again placed in the top 100 schools in the state.

A desire to work in healthcare, passion for creative arts and a love of her fur-baby has seen Courtney Hughes (2011) build a life (and business) that ticks all the boxes.

ºÚÁÏÉçÇø farewells Junior School teacher, Mrs Ros Hayles in 2022 who has been teaching for 38 years with 21 of those at ºÚÁÏÉçÇø. She shares how lucky she has been to view the world through young eyes, how technology has changed throughout the years and shares memories of some of her early days of teaching.

A sense of belonging, safety and connectedness are key elements of a ºÚÁÏÉçÇø education. To support the school’s strategic focus on wellbeing and ensure programs cater for students at every stage, a Director of Wellbeing for Years 7 to 12 was recently appointed.

In the final instalment of our three part series, we take a look at the post-school journeys of the leaders (Head Prefect) and high academic achievers (Dux) from 2011 - 2020.

Our new Head Prefects Annabelle King and Matthew Trethewy are all about inclusion, positivity and supporting every student from Kindergarten through to Year 12. We sat down with them to find out what makes them tick.

Year 10 is yet again set to serve our community as they work hard to help make a difference by supporting local organisations, donation drives and raising awareness.

It was great to be back on the home court for 'Old Boys' and 'Old Girls' to share sporting moments, stories and advice with our Basketballers.

Is someone peeling onion layers? No, it’s just the funny, charming and clever Junior School production of Shrek that has us crying with laughter!

On the back of her recent World Champion win at the Canoe Ocean Racing World Championships, we chat with Alumna Jemma Smith about her passion for sports, being World Champion and how she juggles all her training along with teaching.

ºÚÁÏÉçÇø students took to the sporting fields stronger than ever this season, kicking, shot-putting and running into stellar performances across the board.
