Prize Giving Evening 2024

Posted on in Senior School, Major

Our Prize Giving Evening on Thursday 12 December was an extraordinary celebration of another year of learning and excellence at St Mary’s College.

Hosted at Wrest Point, the evening honoured our students for their outstanding achievements across all learning areas of our Senior School, with inspiring speeches, award presentations and a showcase of the year’s exceptional musical and theatre performances.

Guests were treated to performances by our talented Year 7/8 Combined Choir, Concert Band, Saxophone Ensemble and a show-stopping rendition of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, our College musical for 2024.

In a touching moment, 2024 Head Prefect Gabrielle Radic delivered her final address before officially passing the leadership roles to our 2025 leaders, symbolised by the ceremonial handover of the lanterns.

We express our gratitude to all prefects for their commitment and contributions, with special acknowledgement to Gabi and Deputy Prefects, Mykala Mastrocola and Grace Cox.

We also extend wholehearted congratulations to Grace (Year 12), who was named Dux of St Mary’s College.

Congratulations to all our award winners and farewell to our Year 12 class of 2024 cohort.
