The Year 7 girls were fantastic, cheering one another on throughout the events and showing kindness, Compassion and a wonderful sense of humour. They supported their Houses with great enthusiasm, and our Year 7 attendance at the carnival was excellent. This is certainly another moment to add to Ms Stolzi\u2019s list of \u201cthings to be proud of\u201d from our fantastic Year 7s.
