This final week of the 2025 school year has been filled with celebration, reflection and joy. On Monday evening, our Year 6 students marked the end of their Junior School journey with a memorable Year 6 Graduation, looking ahead to their move into Senior School. The celebrations continued on Tuesday, with the Year 6 Fun Day at Hillarys Boat Harbour. That evening, we gathered for the Year 7 to 11 Presentation Night, where we recognised student achievement across the year, complemented by musical performances and media showcases in the Gym. On Wednesday, Year 7 to 9 students enjoyed a fun-filled excursion to Outback Splash, while Junior School families joined us in the Gym for the Pre Primary to Year 6 Awards Assembly. Wednesday also marked the final day of Term 4.

On Monday evening, our Year 6 students marked the end of their Junior School journey with a special graduation ceremony. They performed beautifully and were warmly addressed by Miss Katie Greenhalgh, Head of Junior School. The Year 6 teachers also shared a speech, reflecting on the students’ growth and achievements.
Graduation awards were presented, and several Year 6 students gave speeches to thank their teachers and share memories. Each student was presented with a Bible to mark this important milestone. The evening ended with a light supper enjoyed by families, staff and students.
We are proud of our Year 6s and look forward to seeing them thrive in Senior School.
On Wednesday, we held our Pre Primary to Year 6 Awards Assembly in the College Gym to celebrate the efforts and achievements of our Junior School students.
The Avanti and Piccolo Choirs opened the morning with joyful performances, setting a warm and celebratory tone. Awards were presented for academic excellence, outstanding achievement, specialist subjects and the arts.
We also acknowledged our incoming 2026 student leaders as they prepare to take on new responsibilities in the year ahead.
It was a wonderful way to end the year, and we are proud of all students for their hard work and growth throughout 2025.
On Tuesday 9 December, we celebrated the achievements of our Year 7 to 11 students at the annual College Presentation Night.
Awards were presented for subject excellence, endeavour and special categories, recognising students who have demonstrated commitment, growth and excellence throughout the year. Our 2026 student leaders were also formally presented to the College community.
The evening featured media presentations and outstanding musical performances from the Swan Jazz Band, Swan Concert Band, Swan Song Choir and Avanti Choir, showcasing the creativity and talent of our students.
We were honoured to be joined by SCEA CEO Dr Graeme Cross and Mrs Michelle Maynard, Member for Swan Hills, for this special occasion. It was a wonderful way to reflect on the year and celebrate student success.
