It’s that time of year again when we bid farewell to our students. It’s an emotional time, not only for our students, but also our staff as they’ve watched them grow and thrive throughout the year. This isn’t just academically however – some are so nervous when they first start at college, yet by the time it comes to the end of the year, they are much more confident and are able to integrate well with their peers and become a valued member of the Greenbank community.

And so, our End of Year ceremony is not only about the winners of awards, but a celebration of everyone who have achieved in their own way throughout the year. There were 7 award categories plus an overall Student of the Year award.
