Thursday 14 September marks 17 more days of school before graduation. Although exciting for some students, the certainty that the real world is right around the corner is setting in. On Sunday 10 September, the Grade 12 students begin their last adventure together, to the retreat destination, at Alexander Headlands. The atmosphere in the senior plaza has been nothing we have experienced before, as there is a wide variety of emotions surrounding this retreat. Despite the sadness of school, and school events coming to an end, students are now receiving their mock exam results, and the realisation that a lot of work is to be done between now and graduation is hitting us all very hard.

The end of term is approaching fast, and before we know it, we will be wearing these uniforms for the last time in just a few very short weeks. The seniors have spent the whole year wishing it away, but now we’re wishing for all the time back. I think I speak on behalf of many seniors when we say that there is no other group of kids we would have rather grown up with. These past 13 years have been absolutely incredible, and I wouldn't change it for the world, all thanks to this amazing group of people. Along with the good, always comes the bad and this is no exception for us. We scream and fight like a family but most importantly we forgive like a family. The good, the bad, and everything in between have helped shape us into beautiful people, and for that, I am so proud of us.

We would like to wish the best of luck to all graduating seniors this year in the start of their new journey. Every single one of us in this group has so much potential to do great.
