The class of 2009 wrapped up their final school days before taking a study break in preparation for the Higher School Certificate (HSC) examinations, which start on October 20.
The 2009 Year 12 class kick-started the day with a barbecue breakfast with teachers, before taking the mickey out of them through skits, jokes and a 10-minute video.
Moruya High School principal John Walsh said he was impressed the students put the 10-minute film together and how professional it looked.
“Our Year 12s celebrated their last day at school with a very impressive barbecue breakfast, supplied by the hospitality students, which was attended by Year 12 and staff,” he said.
“Breakfast was followed by a formal assembly where the Year 12 students entertained their fellow students, largely by getting six years of frustration out of their system at the expense of the teachers.”
The students kept up the amusing antics by presenting Mr Walsh with a gift - all the missing school supplies that had mysteriously disappeared from the principal’s office during the past week.
Mr Walsh said the school was proud of this year’s HSC students, as 25 per cent of the cohort had achieved straight As in their trial HSC exams.
“Trials are often tougher than the HSC,” he said.
Mr Walsh said the Year 12 coordinator Ms Prow had predicted a least six of those students would be in the highest level of the new Australian Tertiary Ranking system.
