It’s a joy to see the colour and excitement at these events along with the competition. Thanks to the organisers of these two events. We appreciate your efforts. Congratulations to all the students who will now represent the College at the NASSA Carnivals this week. We wish them our best.
Last week our Senior School Student Leadership Team attended the Prefect Commissioning Service at St Andrews Cathedral hosted by the Rev Dr Glenn Davies, the Archbishop of Sydney. This is an important occasion for our Student Leaders also as they are commissioned into their roles as Prefects. Lachlan Shead also shared his testimony on the day.
Catarina Di Ramio shared her thoughts from the day as follows:-
“The chance to be commissioned by the Archbishop was a privilege in itself, but, what was even more valuable was that as a team, we all learnt how to serve and support our student body as well as our teachers through the love, and guidance of God’s word. This reminded us of our own values and it helped us to construct the way we lead Thomas Hassall Anglican College."
It was lovely to once again welcome our visitors from Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School (QEGS) in Alford, United Kingdom. They were able to share their experiences of Sydney and share with our students about their school and way of life. QEGS staff and students also joined the HSC High Achievers’ Assembly celebrating the achievements of our Year 12 Class of 2018.
“Who doesn’t like the smell of hot coffee brewing, good food on offer as well as an opportunity to meet other parents….” - it was great to see the launch of MRK Parent Café last week. We served over 300 cups of coffee over the 2 days and there was certainly a buzz in the air both mornings. We look forward to seeing many of you each Thursday and Friday during the term.
This Friday we will host our annual Open Day. This is a great opportunity for us to showcase the College in action. Please let your friends and neighbours know…. it’s certainly not too late to register or even just come along on the day.
Thanks for your continued support.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
