Farewell Year 12

Ode to Year 12 2010


Kathryn A – Now is not the time to deny and fight, we all know you’re a huge fan of Twilight.

Cherie B – To put it simply you’re beautiful, tall and absolutely loved by all.

Mitchell B – We’re all more than willing to walk, swim or jog, to go see the hot guy who works at The Loaded Dog.

Melanie C – After six years of reminding us every single day, we agree you are awesome in every single way.

Joseph C – In a sense you’ve beat the rest of us, having the longest nickname “Jossepi Clarkadopolous”

Jordan C – We know you put up with all too much teasing, since that time when you asked if “ the rocks were breathing?”

Grace E – It’s safe to say you’ll be remembered forevs, as the girl who always says “whatevs”.

Monique F – It’s evident that you aspire to be a star, maybe one day even bigger than Gaga.

Kristopher G – Leaves us saying “oh my gosh!” when we observe him playing squash.

Samuel G – Deceptively quiet is the rumour, but be aware he has a sharp sense of humour.

Dylan H – It’s very well known that it’s your aim, to be the best in the world at every video game.

Nerissa K – With a smile as bright as a disco ball, you will indeed be missed by all.

Jessica L– ls it your wish for you to be known as “Lavish”?

Carl R – Do you only play guitar just for fun? You could potentially be the next Angus Young.

Mitchell S – We love Mitchell he’s our man, he rides a bike further than anyone can.

Courtney T – We know you as a “legal eagle”, but you keep it as cool as Snoopy the beagle.

Jake T – We have all come to better know you as, that farmy boy that goes by “Gaz”.

Stuart T – I think I speak on the whole school’s behalf, when I tell you have a truly unique laugh.

Timothy W– The humour at this school will never be the same, we’ll miss the “Tim jokes” that were never lame.

Emma W– She may not be six foot tall, but she shines bright and gives her all.

Lauren W – We’re sad that you’ll be gone ever so long, please promise us to not return as a pom.

Samantha W – Where ever you go you’ll be the one to beat, but always remember you’re Grenfell’s own athlete.

Thank you, Year 12, for everything that you have done for us and the school. We’re going to miss you and we wish you all the best for the exams and all your plans for the future. Year 11.

And from me - farewell Year 12 2010, we've enjoyed your company and delighted in watching you grow up.  We wish you well and look forward to catching up with you in the future.  Best wishes for the HSC and remember: 'As you grow older, you'll find the only things you regret are the things you didn't do'Zachary Scott (1914-1965).
