Principal's Report

Dear Parent/Carer, 

As we approach the end of 2022, I wanted to take a moment to thank the many staff, students and parents who have made our year such a success. Some of the more significant milestones we have achieved this year include:

  • Introduction of Year 10 and over 31 new senior subjects
  • An additional 4 specialist subjects added to the Year 9 elective subject offerings 
  • Commencement of Year 7 Football and Ignite Academies in 2022 with 2 more Academies commencing in 2023 for Dance and eSports
  • The largest Instrumental program of any high school in the greater Ipswich area with approx 60 students participating
  • State champions for the 2nd year running in Premier Coding challenge
  • 3 teams making the top 10 in the Australian National Coding challenge
  • State winners of the FUSE eSports Cup for the 2nd year in a row and our teams going to present at the upcoming National finals
  • Several Yagera sporting teams winning their age/division across numerous sporting codes including volleyball, football, basketball and netball
  • Several individual students being selected in their chosen sport to represent at state and national levels
  • Increased student academic improvement across our core subjects of English, maths and Science
  • Completion of our Stage 2 buildings with Stage 3 due to commence in early 2023

These are just some of the many achievements we have accomplished this year and I look forward to another exciting year in 2023.

Next year our college will expand to  over 820 student enrolments across years 7 to 11 and we welcome over 18 new teaching staff. As our college continues to grow and mature, I look forward to building on our strong foundations and a positive culture.     

Have a restful and relaxing holiday break and I look forward to working with you again in 2023. 

Yours Sincerely,
