2014-09-04 | Head of Stanmore

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Thank you to all families who so generously supported our Back to Newington Day celebrations. It was a huge success. In particular can I acknowledge the P&F, our numerous Support Groups, volunteers and staff who worked tirelessly on the day despite the challenging weather. Next week we honour Year 12 through a series of special events, however please note that zero tolerance will be shown to inappropriate behaviour.

Dr Andrew Hirst, Deputy Headmaster/Head of Stanmore
