Thursday was all about celebrating the Class of 2017.

Year 12 families were invited to attend this special farewell.

The day started early with the house farewells, after which parents were invited to enjoy a relaxed and delicious morning tea before they made their way to the gym for the traditional, and much anticipated, leavers assembly.

At the assembly, students had the opportunity to thank and farewell staff and put their own unique perspective on their time at St Stephen’s. Mr. Titlestad addressed the students and wished the group every success in their new ventures beyond the school.  After some video compilation’s, Mr. Richmond spoke. The theme of the assembly was the Oscars.

The Year 12 chosen speaker was Tim Corey who spoke on behalf of the leavers and was thoughtful and articulate as he spoke of being proud of the school he has been a part of, and thanked teachers and Mr. Titlestad for everything they have done.  It was an excellent opportunity for the Year 12 group to reflect on their time at St Stephen’s, and on what lay ahead for them in the next phase in their life journeys.

If that wasn’t enough, the cohort also had the Graduation Dinner at the Joondalup Resort later that evening.

Here are a few snap shots of the morning activities:
