Our centenary
celebrations have officially come to an end. We have had an amazing
twelve months of celebrations to mark this very special milestone for our
school. We thank everyone who was involved and were lucky to be able to
acknowledge contributions of the steering committee, sub-committees, staff and
supporters in front of our students at assembly last week and in front of our
parents at our Ball.
