The Academic Blues assembly was held at the end of last term and celebrated the success of both our Merit and Excellence endorsed student for 2018.

The attendees at the assembly had the pleasure of a speech made by Mr Mark Hayward who is retiring after 38 years at Geraldine High School. His wisdom and experience about achieving in life and work was insightful.  Read Mr Hayward's speech elsewhere in this newsletter.

The Merit and Excellence students received badges and should be proud of this achievement. It was also great to have past students, William Holland and Felix Finlayson-Hood, who gained Excellence in Level 3 last year, present to receive their badges in person.
