Transitioning into senior school is a pivotal moment in a young person’s life. It signals a shift toward more rigorous academic expectations, increased independence, and the development of skills essential for success beyond school.

The Year 11 Senior Commitment Ceremony symbolises the students’ readiness to embrace the responsibilities and challenges of senior school. It provides an opportunity for them to publicly affirm their commitment to their studies, their personal growth, and the values of our school community.

This ceremony is designed to acknowledge this change, to motivate students to set purposeful goals for the remainder of their school years, and build on the ongoing partnership between the school and parents/caregivers in providing high quality education. It is a time for reflection, recognition, and renewed dedication as students embarks on the next stage of their academic journey.

This year, the event will be held in the school hall on Friday 13th February from 8.30am to 9.30am.
