At our presentation assemblies we acknowledge the achievement of all students as they have grown academically, socially, physically and emotionally. We also choose to recognise special achievements.
Each year, at presentation day, we review the year with a photo movie highlighting the students' experiences during the year. Please use the menu to access each year and see these fabulous videos.
