It is hard to believe that we are at the end of another year. We are grateful to God for the many blessings that we have received as a school this year. We have staff in this college who work collaboratively to develop and refine learning experiences that enhance student learning. Our staff are as committed to learning as the students which is evident in many of the informal conversations held around the College.

Our last week with our year 12 students started with a reflection camp at Brookfield. This provided an opportunity for the students to pause after many days of assessment and to shift their focus onto life after school. Speakers offered words of advice and encouragement and students were given opportunities to spend quality time with each other. During the time away parents, pastors and mentors visited the students to reflect with them about their schooling and pray with them about their future. We are so privileged to be a part of such a caring community.

Our graduation and awards evening provided further opportunity for affirmation for our year 12 students as they walked across the stage while comments designed by those who knew them well were read out.

We congratulate our year 12 cohort for 2018 and thank them for the inspiration that they have been to their peers, staff and younger members of the Northside community. We wish them every success and joy in their journey beyond school.
