On Tuesday 3rd December we held our Graduation Ceremony for our Year 6 Students.
We had the pleasure of welcoming back as a special guest, a past student and Indigenous Leader in 2018, Kiahna G. Kiahna shared some important insights on high school for our students for the future.
Mrs Willgoose started the tradition of having past students come to our Graduation Nights as the special guests and every year we delight in making this connection again and seeing how well our Caningeraba Kids are doing in the big wide world.
On behalf of our whole school community, I would like to wish all of our Year 6 students all the very best for their future. We have enjoyed our 2024 students all the way through our school and we have welcomed our “newbies" as we fondly call those started after Prep. This group of Year 6s are our biggest group of students to ever graduate from Caningeraba with 175 of them receiving Graduation Certificates.
The Year 6 teaching team Mr Isaac Henwood, Mrs Veronica Grys, Mrs Emma McKeon, Mrs Fran Bleathman, Mrs Jeanne Coetzee, Ms Lauren Gannon and Ms Mullen work so well with our Year 6 students to ensure that their final year at Primary school is memorable.
Our students are supported in their education by all our staff, teachers from Prep to Year 6, our teacher aides, our cleaners and our office staff.
They are also supported by their family and the connection between family and school is very pivotal in ensuring success. Your child, our student, one team together.
All of our students receive their graduation certificates and partake in a fun class dance. We also have students who receive acknowledgement for different aspects of their schooling.
