Farewell to Year 13

Farewell to Year 13

October 26, 2016 at 2:19 PM

This year’s cohort of 280 Year 13’s spent a final morning at College today, firstly attending Chapel where they were welcomed into the ranks of the Old Collegians by President of the Association, Mr Andrew Morgan and recent Old Collegians, Tim Wylie and Sharnika Leleni. Both Tim and Sharnika spoke fondly of their College days and the importance of students maintaining their Saint Kentigern networks as they move on in life. 

Year 13 pipers, William Eaddy and Matthew Clow, with support from Year 11 drummer, Fraser McEwan, then piped the graduates to the Sports Centre for what has become an annual tradition. From initial chaos, 2016 quickly unfolded on the field as each House group of students organised themselves into one of the giant numbers for an aerial photo. 

It was then on to Bruce House to enjoy a substantial brunch before the boys received their Old Collegian’s ties and the girls their tartan scarves, which they are all encouraged to wear to their final formal function of the year; their Graduation Dinner in December. 

For now, we wish our departing Year 13s all the very best as they take advantage of these last few days of study leave in preparation for their final exams.
