School Captain Alexander Korlos conducted an Opening Prayer before Principal Mark Robertson delivered his Principal’s Address, speaking of the important role our School leaders will play in inspiring students and embodying the School’s theme this year to ‘Aim High, Achieve More.’

Ms O’Neil was then welcomed to the stage by School Captain Anastasia Kaniadakis, who delivered a warm address to the students in attendance, speaking on the importance of doing what is right rather than what is popular, and everyone’s responsibility to act as leaders within their community.
