Staff and students, as well as family and friends, bid farewell to the graduating class of 2019 at a school assembly.
It was their last formal assembly ahead of the Higher School Certificate examinations in October. Students were presented with their graduation portfolios and the school body honoured their major achievements and awards.
In his address, principal Vero Joseph wished the twenty-two graduates success beyond their six years of high school.
"Look for opportunities, always sell yourself... and focus on your goals," Mr Joseph advised.
"We're owed nothing in this world, and what we get we work hard for.
"It really is up to you to make your own luck."
The graduates presented Mr Joseph with a cheque worth $200 fundraised by the students which will be used to beautify the school's outdoor spaces.
