2020 Awards
2020 has been a unique year with numerous challengers and unknowns. At the same time, it has also been a year where we have had much to celebrate. As a College, we want to commend our students, parents and staff for the resolve that they showed throughout the year. We thank God for them daily.
Whilst we could not gather in the physical sense for our annual Presentation Night, our hope is that you can appreciate and celebrate the learning that occurred throughout 2020.
