College Semester 1 Academic Colours and Honours 2015

At special assemblies this week, Academic Colours and Honours were awarded to our highest achieving Senior School students whilst our top Middle School students received their their Academic Honours and Academic Endeavour Awards.

In recognition of our students who strive to achieve at the highest academic levels, Saint Kentigern College awards Academic Colours and Honours twice a year. Those awarded in Term 1 are recognised for their achievement in the previous end of year external examinations. At the completion of Semester 1, the mid-year point, our highest achieving students across all year levels are recognised at a special Academic Colours and Honours assembly. The latter are based on Semester 1 student report results.

The standard set to gain Academic Awards is high and intended to motivate our top academic students to achieve at the highest levels of excellence. We are extremely pleased that the number of students attaining Colours and Honours is growing each year, showing our students’ commitment to achieving at their personal best; a philosophy we promote to our students. The students who are awarded Colours receive a special breast pocket to wear with pride on their blazer.
