Dear Parents/Carers, 

Over the past 2 weeks our Year 12 students have completed their classwork and engaged in their last external exams before they graduate.  This final phase of their high school journey has been met with mixed emotions both for staff and students alike.  I know that we will be very proud of their achievements when they graduate on the 15th November.  As we countdown to this historic event in their lives and our colleges history I look forward to hearing about our past students' endeavours and achievements long into the future.

As we near the end of the school year and as I reflect back on the last 5 years of schooling at Ripley Valley, I am very proud of our college.  We have established a strong reputation for respectful and responsible students, high achievers and a positive school culture.  Our college will continue to grow in size over the coming years and I am thankful for the strong foundation that we have already established.  We remain committed to building on the strong foundation of our present and maintaining our high standards, expectations and sense of belonging well into the future.  Working together to achieve excellence will remain part of our college DNA and I encourage you to continue to partner with the school as we plan for the future. 

As our year 12's countdown to their final days of schooling and we prepare for another exciting year in 2025, I want to thank the many staff, students and parents who have contributed to our college's success.  By working together, we have achieved much in a short period of time and I look forward to the future ahead as we continue this great work.

Yours Sincerely,  

Brendan Krueger

Foundation Principal
