Over the last fortnight I have witnessed the skill, confidence, determination and drive in our Year 11 students who applied for Student Leadership Positions within the College. The House Captains for each House were voted in with a new system and were announced last week.

It is my pleasure to announce the House Captains as follows:

Rice: Amelia Rowan and Caitlin Drum

McAuley: Sarah McDonald and Oliver Baker

Nagle: Camden Cummins and Dieter Dickinson

Gallagher: Fraser Johnson and Paul Barrett

They will join College Captains Jasmine Sullivan and James Payne in leading the College from Term 4. 

Last week the College celebrated Father’s Day with Mass and a BBQ breakfast. It was lovely to be able to celebrate with all the special men in our lives and I would like to thank them for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend.  

We are preparing for our final weeks with Year 11 students who will finish their courses at the end of this term. At the start of Term 4 they begin their Year 12 journey and we wish them well as they prepare for their exams. 

We are also commencing the final fortnight with our Year 12 students. They will begin their HSC examinations at the beginning of Term 4. We know that these last few weeks of learning are critical to their success and we wish them all the best.

Finally, next week we say goodbye to Ms Donya Tabesh who will be leaving us to join her family interstate. We thank Ms Tabesh for her service to the College over the last three years. Donya is a kind-hearted, gentle person who always looks out for others and has been a much-valued member of our Hennessy community. We will miss her but we know that her move is a great opportunity for her to be closer to her family and to hone her teaching skills.
