We encourage everyone to be the best version of themselves and to have as much fun as possible in the process.”
Tharuja talked about what makes the school special. “Our school is not only defined by its achievements but the relationships we build and the support we give one another”, he praised.
Zainab spoke about their leadership focus. “We want every student to feel empowered to get involved, take chances and support one another, both inside and outside the classroom”, she shared. “Every contribution matters, and every student has something valuable to offer.”
Grace and Emmett also offered words of support. “Let’s remember to be kind, help each other, and make our school a happy and safe place for everyone. We can’t wait to learn, play and grow together this year!”, they said.
Zainab, Tharuja and Elizabeth are part of the first Year 11 cohort at the Traralgon Campus and will undertake their VCE studies at the St Paul’s Traralgon Campus together with the VCE Foundation cohort, as the campus progresses towards welcoming Year 12 in 2027.
