Year 6 Captains - End of Year Address

Nov 12, 2026 3:01 PM

This year has been an extraordinary year - from Winton Camp to Grandparents Day and Bornhoffen, this year has been a blast! 

We will never forget the small moments that built up our Junior School experience including the signature outback hairstyles and beautiful sunsets that were a once in a lifetime opportunity. These are the memories that will stay with us long after we leave Junior School. Whether it was learning something new in class, stepping out of our comfort zones on camp, or overcoming challenges together, we have grown stronger as a cohort every single day. 

We are extremely thankful to have the opportunity to have Prep buddies. Our sessions with them were filled with laughter and joy. These memories will always be treasured, and we will be looking forward to seeing them when we are in Year 12. 

As we look ahead to high school, we are excited for the opportunities, challenges and experiences that await us. While we may be moving on from Junior School, we will always carry with us the lessons we have learned, the friendships we have made and the memories we have created together. 

We are incredibly grateful for all our teachers, staff and everyone who has made our last year of Junior School memorable. Miss Sutcliffe, Mr Donnell, Mr Collins, Mrs Finch, Mrs Ryan, Mrs Radisavlyevic and Ms Sheehy have played a big role in making our Year 6 journey one to remember. 

To our parents and families, thank you for your constant support, encouragement and guidance. We would not be where we are today without you and we are grateful for everything you have done for us. Thank you, everyone, for making our final year of Junior School so special. We will cherish these memories forever! 

Thank you for everything!
