No matter the area of learning, outstanding results come from meaningful student, teacher and parent collaboration. We thank our Director of Learning, Andrea Sherwood, Faculty leaders, teachers and support staff throughout the whole School, who uphold the exceptional education we offer students from Early Learning through to Year 12, in the classroom and online. We acknowledge Head of Senior School David Wallage, Head of Senior Students Tony Ritson (’93) and Heads of House for their dedicated support and guidance of our Year 12 cohort. We are grateful for the support to all parents, caregivers and families during their sons’ and daughters’ years at Westminster.
We wish the Class of 2022 the very best for their future success and extend an open invitation for our Old Scholars to visit us at Westminster to share their life stories beyond school.
Warm regards
