Fond Farewell
Ms Penniment has been the teacher librarian at the Fort for the past 14 years. In the last two years Ms Penniment has overseen the refurbishment of the school library, this involved a complete pack up and temporary relocation of the library to the top level of the Wilkins Building and an unpack and move back into the new space at the beginning of this year. We appreciate the enormous amount of effort and work this project required. Ms Penniment has accepted a transfer to St George Girls High School and will be commencing at her new school in Term 4. We would like to wish her all the best for the remainder of her career, St George Girls are very lucky to be gaining such an experienced and dedicated teacher librarian.
Year 12
The current Year 12 cohort have continued to impress parents and staff with the resilience they have demonstrated throughout this difficult year. With only 3 weeks left of term, Year 12 students are working hard and making the most of their face to face lessons before the school holidays and the commencement of HSC exams. Year 12 celebrations will be taking place on the last day of this term with a formal graduation ceremony live streamed and recorded for parents in the morning followed by individual brunch boxes in the Fountain Quad. The school farewell assembly will take place on the same day during Periods 3 and 4 and will be livestreamed to all students and teachers in their classrooms.
The letter below was emailed to all Year 12 students last week from the NSW Governor:
