Year 9

The last three years have gone in a flash. I simply cannot believe that this is my final newsletter piece to you all. It was January 2021 when I was introduced in person to this amazing cohort of students, all hidden by face masks in our post COVID lockdown era. We have navigated friendships, COVID, new teachers, harder schoolwork, COVID, more friendships, camp, new classes, new friends, more camp, leadership opportunities, cadets and more! It has been an amazing journey getting to know each and every student, watching them grow, change, find who they are and thrive. It has been an absolute pleasure working with so many of you to help guide, and support where needed, and celebrate the wins. I know this cohort will go on to achieve all they set their sights on, and I can’t wait to watch them all shine. I’ll be cheering them on from the middle year!

Have a well-deserved Christmas break, time with family and friends and get ready for Year 10! Class of 2027, you have been awesome.
