Dear Year 12,

Congratulations to you all! It has been an incredible journey watching each of you grow, learn, and evolve. As you embark on the next chapter of your lives, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt farewell.

Through all the highs and lows, adventures and travels, you have demonstrated incredible resilience and perseverance. It’s inspiring to see how each of you has developed in character and wisdom. The bonds you’ve formed, the knowledge you’ve gained, and the experiences you’ve accumulated will serve as a solid foundation for your future endeavours.

We are immensely proud of each one of you and the remarkable young adults you have become. The world awaits your contributions, and we have no doubt that you will accomplish great things. Your journey is just beginning, and we eagerly anticipate hearing about your upcoming achievements.

As you step into the world, always remember the words of Saint Catherine, “All the way to heaven is heaven.” Life is a journey, and it’s important to savour every moment, no matter the challenges you may face. Embrace each step with enthusiasm, as every experience is an opportunity for growth and learning.

In the wise words of Goethe, “Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.” Believe in your dreams and pursue them with courage and determination. You possess the brilliance and the potential to make your dreams a reality, and in doing so, you will inspire others along the way.

As we bid farewell to this chapter, we also bid you farewell with our best wishes for your future adventures. May your path be filled with excitement, discovery, and achievement. We have faith in your ability to shine brightly and make a positive impact on the world.

Thank you for being a part of our Class. Keep striving for excellence, and always carry with you the lessons and memories of your time here. Farewell, Year 12, and may success and happiness be your constant companions on this extraordinary journey called life.

With best wishes and fond memories, on behalf of all of us at Shearwater,

Beau, Gabe and Justin
