Head of Secondary

Mrs Jane McLarty | Acting Head of Secondary                                                

As 2023 draws to a close I have reflected on another busy year. After the turmoil of the last few years, we have certainly resumed all the 'normal' school activities. We have celebrated our resilient, patient, kind, caring and Godly young men and women at the Year 12 Formal.

Our Year 10 students trained as Peer Support Leaders for the incoming Year 7 2024 cohort, the students served our community with a variety of activities. Next week they will participate in the Cru Adventure Camp, finishing off Year 10 with the Dinner Dance at Mingara next Thursday night.  

We are looking forward to giving thanks for 2023 and celebrating the achievements of many students at our Thanksgiving Service on Friday 1 December.

Throughout the past two years, I have been reminded often that the only thing that remained constant, dependable, and unchanging was our Heavenly Father. He was the same yesterday; He is the same today and He will remain the same tomorrow. When everything around us has been uncertain, I am so thankful that this one thing remains. I pray God’s richest blessings over everyone in our school community as we celebrate the birth of Jesus and may the hope that He brings sustain us all into 2024.
