Student Reflection

I had the privilege of attending the final retreat of our schooling, organised by the incredible YMT Australia. The focus of the day was on self-image. We engaged in a variety of activities, from individual tasks to team-based activities and role plays led by YMT which had a message to tell as the role plays progressed. The retreat concluded with a time of prayer and reflection, where we had the opportunity to connect with God, open our hearts, and release some of the weight we were carrying. Finally the year 12 cohort was very excited and proud to receive our year 12 jackets as it symbolises the milestone that we have reached. It was a day filled with many memories that I know for sure we will cherish forever. I just wanted to congratulate my fellow peers and thank the YMT and a special thanks to Ms Guido and Mr Elbarbar for making this day happen.

Tuesday the 4th of March, marked a significant milestone in our Year 12 journey—receiving our senior jackets and heartfelt letters from our families. It was more than just a ceremony; it was a reminder of how far we’ve come and the support that has carried us to this point. Putting on our senior jackets, we felt a sense of pride, unity, and responsibility. These jackets symbolise not only our final year of school but also the friendships, challenges, and achievements that have shaped us. Though the most emotional part of the day was reading the letters from our families. Students read the heartfelt words of encouragement and recognised the amount of support we each had behind us to push us through the rest of our VCE schooling. All of us felt deeply grateful to be able to experience these letters as it was introduced this year. This moment served as a reminder that our teachers, friends, and families are cheering us on, and this support will carry us through the challenges ahead. As we move forward, our senior jackets will be a constant reminder of our journey and the people who believe in us.
