Headmaster's Commendations
8.3O | Angus Cullen Falconer | For consistently showing enthusiasm, integrity and motivation to succeed across a range of subject areas. Angus is a friendly and earnest young man who is a pleasure to have in the class. |
8.6F | Oskar Beadell | Oskar has displayed the Caring profile exemplified in the IB learner profile. The level of empathy shown towards the Leukemia Foundation fundraiser led Oskar and Daniel Buchhorn to setup a fundraising activity over a weekend at a shopping centre. The boys took a risk in choosing that venue as the public were not very receptive to their idea, however after some marketing and persuasion, the boys used their jelly - balloon concept and raised over $700.00. Their efforts were then further enhanced within the Middle School and 8F raising a further $700.00. Oskar is to be commended for his effort and achievement. |

7.2H | Lachlan Pyne | Lachlan has continually demonstrated the qualities of being principled and a risk taker. Lachlan participates in class discussions and in small groups with charisma and care. He tackled physical challenges at Moray with enthusiasm and persistence, climbing the rope enthusiastically and when the going got tough, and it did, he persisted and pushed through the pain to reach his goal. He drew strength from within but he had the whole class behind him. He undertakes his school work and other commitments with a similar positive attitude. Lachlan is highly valued member of our Year 7 community. |
7.6T | Joshua Keatch | Joshua has had an outstanding start to Year 7. He displays fantastic manners at all times and treats all those around him with respect and care. Josh is intrinsically motivated to do well in all subjects and consistently produces work of his best ability. He is a valued member of the Middle School community and he is a testament to his family. |
7.7K | Max Shervington | Max was the main motivator in our 7K class for the raising of money for the Leukaemia Foundation World's Greatest Shave. He did a lot of work in his own time, organising a Dodgeball tournament. Max gathered a committee to help him achieve his goal of raising as much money as possible. The Dodgeball tournament took place over 2 weeks of lunchtimes and he never left his post once; always making sure it ran smoothly and to schedule. |
6.2C | Xavier Dry | For consistently demonstrating an open-minded and inquiring approach towards his learning. |
6.4B | Oliver Barrett | For his well-researched report about the humanitarian aid response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake. In particular, Oliver demonstrated an impressive capacity for thinking critically by identifying the main points to both sides of the argument that "Australia has an obligation to help other countries in times of need". |
