B LITERACY AWARDS On Tuesday, the English Department celebrated tenacity in literacy with our annual Literacy Awards, held in the school library. Parents, students and English teachers gathered to celebrate Year 9 and 10 English and Media Studies students who have shown perseverance and determination in improving their own reading and writing throughout the year. It was a special evening, and a real celebration of the individual students, their families and their English teachers, and the learning journey we all go on together. For a full list of recipients of awards, please see page 5.
