YEAR 13 LEAVERS' ASSEMBLY
Today, we said goodbye to our wonderful Year 13 students at their leavers’ assembly.
We took a trip down memory lane with a photo montage—seeing their Year 7 selves brought out plenty of laughs and nostalgia! Staff shared messages of good luck and farewell, sending them off with pride as they step into their next chapter.
We can't wait to see what they do next and know they'll go on to achieve incredible things.
Class of 2025, you did it! 🎓💙
