As the new term begins, we’re filled with hope and excitement for what’s to come. Each day presents a new chance to learn, to grow, and to discover not just the world around us, but also the potential within us. Let’s work together in making this term not only successful but also memorable.

YR11 and 12 Duke of Edinburgh students conquered 42km of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland Great Walk over four adventurous days during Easter. Despite encountering some very wet weather, they persevered to soak in the stunning scenery of waterfalls and creeks at their best.

At the Defence Force International Women’s Day Morning Tea, YR11 students Sophie Kirk, Allegra-Jane Morgan, and Savannah De Lile, accompanied by our Pathways Advisor, Margaret Smith, were moved by the insightful stories from women who served in defence. The event showcased a range of opportunities specifically for women, with speakers detailing how their careers, notably marked by extensive travel, fundamentally transformed them. They spoke of a journey filled with invaluable experiences, leading them to their current successes without harbouring any regrets. Highlighting that there was no single route into defence roles and that one didn’t need to join straight out of school. The narratives also explored the historical progression of women in defence and the supportive, empowering environment that allowed them to become the best version of themselves.
