Yr 12 Legacy Gift – Sport Towels and Tote Bags are Here!
The Legacy Gift sports towels and tote bags have arrived and have been distributed to those families who have ordered them. There is still an opportunity to secure these gifts online and they will also be offered by Yr 12 on campus next week during lunchtime. The Class of 2023 has raised just over $10,000 so far from all their initiatives. Congratulations!
We are delighted to share a message from Jeff Brown, School Captain of the Class of 2016 acknowledging the continuity of this tradition and sending a message to our Year 12 students:
“As an old leaf on the Redlands tree now, I wanted to pass on my warmest wishes to everyone as yet another exam season nears. Imagine yourselves, 75% across the flowing river, now perched on an unusually large lily pad with your whole cohort, staring at the river bank on the other side marking the finish line of Year 12. You have come so far, with only a few more stones to traverse until you hop off to your next stage in life.
At this point in time, it is natural to be overwhelmed. There is no textbook methodology to approach the last dash. Yet the key is to make sure you take an approach you will not regret in hindsight. When you arrive in December 2023, the greatest feeling will be knowing you gave it your best regardless of the outcome. I know this is a cliché, yet it is an important consensus takeaway from the many year groups which have completed the journey – just as you will all do very soon.
Finally, before you take that next step closer to the river bank, remember all your fellow Year 12s also standing on the lily pad. Grab their hand – keep passing on tips and progress together so you can all cross to the other side together.
On a final note, the generosity and courage from everyone to help continue the Legacy Gift has been so heart-warming to see. I continue to hear wonderful updates of all the energy and care placed into continuing the ongoing contribution to the future of the School. It is so lovely to witness and something everyone should be so proud of, for a very long time.
Best, Jeff.”
