So we decided to put together a short video of encouragement, a little motivation and support from the class of 2019. We all understand what year 12 life is like and a...s so many girls from the class of 2019 absolutely loved our final year with all the events and other activities, we couldn't imagine how the pandemic has altered/changed the year 12s final year so much".
