Brianna Lyons

(Year 12) − UniSA Accelerate graduate

Brianna is the first Cornerstone student to achieve success in this new initiative with UniSA.

UniSA Accelerate gives Year 12 students the opportunity to start studying university courses and guarantees them a place into one of UniSA’s many business degrees. Brianna completed the Macroeconomics unit online during Semester 2 this year. We acknowledge her hard work, determination and commitment to completing this as part of her Year 12 studies.

Brianna is looking to continue study with UniSA in a Business degree with an international focus.

Emily Willett (Year 10)

Emily spent a lot of her recent school holidays participating in swimming training camps at the AIS and Gold Coast for talented athletes looking towards the Paris 2024 Para Olympics, and beyond! Emily also competed at the

Australian Country Swimming

Championships held in Darwin with the Onkaparinga Swimming Club. She competed in 10 heats and 10 finals over 4 days of racing and took home a gold medal in all events! Emily swam 9 personal bests and was able to meet a lot of other Para swimmers and was able to reconnect with some others who she hadn’t seen in a while. That is certainly holidays well spent! Congratulations Emily and we look forward to following along with your swimming journey.

Macie Wheeler (Year 11)

Macie recently competed at the Australian Junior World Diving Championship Trials in Brisbane. She placed 1st in 3m Springboard and 2nd in the 1m Springboard event. From these results she has been selected to represent Australia at the 2022

FINA World Junior

Diving Championships in Montreal Canada at the end of November.

“I am extremely grateful for this opportunity and feel very proud and honoured to represent Australia on the world stage” − Macie

Chelsea Clarke (Year 11)

I just wanted to let you know that Chelsea won the CCN2* and she is now officially a National Champion! She was leading after Dressage (they did the most beautiful test), did a beautiful clear show jumping round and then absolutely nailed the Cross Country, in what I can only describe as very wet and challenging conditions. She was a true professional from the moment we got here; doing everything on her own (other riders all had one or two of their parents doing everything for them) and helping others to plait and treat their horses. This win is huge; nobody from SA has ever won this class (so I am told) and I only know of one other that even competed at this top level, and she was eliminated on cross country. Chelsea has certainly represented Cornerstone College and the State in the most amazing and professional manner in becoming a National Champion!

Jasmine Howis (Year 12)

‘Bliss’ is an acoustic music duo that Jasmine created with her cousin Bethany. They play at cafes and wineries from Langhorne Creek to Tanunda and were asked to play on 3 days at The Royal Adelaide Show, including an interview with Sonya Feldhoff from Radio Adelaide on Thursday, 8 September and they played a song on air. Well done Jas!

Jessica Wedd (Year 9)

Jessica had two young horses compete at the Interschools Nationals in the dressage – this was Jessie’s first national competition and the first time interstate for the boys. Belluci’s Boy (Frankie) is a 4 year old former racehorse and Crusader S (Cruz) a 6 year old warmblood. She has loved being part of the team and is thrilled with how well the boys have coped with the travel and the atmosphere. Well done Jessie!
