Congratulations Year 12! Students in Year 12, 2019 have achieved a magnificent set of Higher School Certificate results which is very much in keeping with the excellent standards consistently recorded by our students over many years.
We are proud of the way our students have worked together in their Collegian years. The culture of thinking and learning they have fostered, together with the resilience they have developed will hold them in great stead as they enter life beyond school. Our school is also identified as one with outstanding academic “value add” allowing all students at all levels to achieve their best.
There has been much to celebrate with a considerable number of Band 6 results achieved by many students across a wide number of subjects. Staff are incredibly proud of the achievements of all of our students who have demonstrated exceptional commitment, resilience and perseverance in their studies.

Of particular mention are the achievements of Will Davies who achieved an ATAR of 99.25. Will achieved marks of 98 in Mathematics Extension 2, 99 in Mathematics Extension 1, 94 in Physics and 93 in Chemistry. This is a phenomenal achievement. Will was also an integral member of the College Prefect team.

As a group they have demonstrated a strong commitment to achieve their best and to support each other. This commitment was not only limited to their academic results, but they have maintained a strong commitment to a range of sporting, musical, service and performance-based activities. They have led our College well and we look forward to hearing of their further successes in the years ahead.
