The 2023 HSC has come to a close, and as our College graduates are make their way into the next phase, we congratulate them once again and wish them every blessing.
Orientations for students coming into the College in 2024 are in progress and it has been a joy to welcome new and existing families at each session. As you remember the experience can be somewhat new and we thank our current staff, families and parent network helpers for their part in the day.
The calendar of end of year events is quite full and we thank families for their consideration and support. End of year concerts and dance are so enjoyable, and we will soon be hosting graduations, formals and end of stage evenings for Year 6, 10 and 12.
Could I thank the College community at this time. It was a joy for me personally and for my wife Lynn and family to have the Gala Dinner farewell in such a special and honouring occasion, on the 28 October. What a great event and my thanks especially to the organising team.
With every intention to enjoy retirement from the beginning of next year, an invitation has been made to me, to be the Principal of our neighbouring Anglican School, Mamre Anglican, for 2024 and 2025. Mamre finds itself having to relocate the site of the school due to a rezoning and the current Principal Ms Cathie Graydon has taken the decision to finish her very successful leadership of Mamre at this time. I will therefore be the Principal of our neighbour for a short time.
Meanwhile, the busyness of College life continues. As we move closer to the end of the year, please know of our thanks for your continued support of the College and our programs.
This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 1 John 4: 13-14
