Joanna Chapko and Alexia Newsome encouraged our current Year 12 and Year 11 students to be organised and well prepared.
"The HSC is an internal battle of how you cope against the pressure and how you learn to forgive yourself", says Joanna. She believes that you do this by acknowledging the bad, embracing the good and moving on.
The College Leadership Team extends their congratulations to the students and commends the teachers who mentored them along the way.
"Our students' outstanding achievements are the result of engaged teaching and high self motivation", said Mr Nic Vidot, College Principal. "Each student has enhanced their outcomes through participation in the full life of the College., Congratulations!"
