This week we celebrated our Year 12 QATSIF Scholarship recipients at the annual QATSIF Graduation held at CQ University.
The girls were applauded for the hard work and commitment they have shown to their schooling, receiving certificates on stage and joining representatives and fellow scholarship recipients from other schools for a celebratory lunch afterwards.
In Thursday Club sessions we have been recently focusing on giving the girls lots of opportunities to express themselves in positive ways; we held a Yarning circle where each girl spoke as much or as little as she chose about home and family – I was so proud of all of the girls as they listened respectfully while others spoke about what is important to them. The group has also been collaborating to create artwork that reflects their culture and heritage - working together and sharing stories to design art unique to each of them.
