We held our 2023 ASPIRE Assembly on Tuesday 21 November, where we celebrated a range of personal and shared successes, introduced our 2024 student leaders and announced the winners of the Academic, Sports, Co-curricular and Overall House Shields.
We also excitedly launched the new house artworks that have been developed by students alongside a Kaurna, Narungga and Ngarrindjeri artist, Lawson Dodd.
