Year 12 students are counting down the days as their time at high school is soon to come to an end.

The students have hung the traditional ‘Countdown Banner’ in Coolock Court, they are attending the last lessons for their classes, and are preparing for the many activities to be held next week including the Graduation Mass, Year 12 and Staff Morning Tea, Final Year 12 Assembly, Year 12 Clap Out and of course the Graduation Ceremony itself.

The Year 12 Yearbook Committee and Media Team Students - Naydeen P., Cailtin G. and Lauren K. asked Year 12 students for a quote that positively resonates with their high school experience. The quotes will appear in the school yearbook but a selection is shown below ranging from bible quotes to quotes from popular songs and TV shows.

1 Corinthians 7:17

Do I regret it? Yes. Would I do it again? Probably.

Can I put my earrings back in now?

Sometimes you gotta close a door to open a window.
