Students Making a Difference

The School’s student-driven impact projects, the Respect Group and Public Purpose programs, had another inspirational year in 2024.

Empathy again drew hundreds of students together to make a difference, devoting their spare time to delivering 15 extraordinary compassion projects. Aided by various enthusiastic staff members and parents, they made an indelible mark in the School community, with impact extending far beyond.

Student service is often realised through a combination of practical and philanthropic endeavours, and here are just a few to remember.

From building beds to filling an empty pantry, students prosper in hands-on opportunities like these that have a profound impact on the community.
