The Honour Society is a measured award system that seeks to recognise the academic and extra curricula achievements of our students throughout their entire schooling at Vincentia High School.
Students earn credits by participating in a variety of activities and achievements as a representative of the school, and by the grade they earn in their academic report at the end of the year. Students accumulate credits from Year 7 through to Year 12. As students reach their incremental milestones they are presented with their medals, pins, engraved plaques, embroidered pennants and/or portrait to be hung in the Wall of Honour located in our Library. Each year these students are presented with their award at a special presentation assembly.
This year's Honour Society Presentation recognising the 2018 achievements was held on Tuesday 26 March 2019, Parents were invited to attend this whole school assembly which showcased the skills and talents that have earned students the recognition they deserve.
Along with the presentation of the awards, the assembly highlights were:
- 2018 National Award winning Wakakirri performance presented by Bridget Raftery, Eva MacKay, Julia Reimann, Lola Snelling and Jaymee-Lee Joines
- Jeremy Head's experiences on the Kokoda Trail
- Performance by our Senior Rock ensemble comprising of Jessica Langman, Joed Humphris-Castle, Milly Garrett, Jayden Williams, Dylan Wright, Billy Alldis and Mark Seymour; and
- A demonstration of our debating team's critical thinking, public speaking and persuasive techniques as they seek to convince us on a special topic on the day.
Congratulations to all students that received an award for reaching their milestone, particularly to Jeremy Head and Nellie Gray for attaining their portrait to be displayed in the schools Hall of Honour; a sincere thank you to all the parents and carers who attended the day; and good luck to those aiming for greater achievements in the future.
