Prize Giving
This year’s Annual Wyvern Prize Giving for students in Years 3 -6 will take place in Centenary Hall on Thursday 5 December at 9:00am. Students are asked to meet their class teachers at the Senior School in the area outside the Music Center next to Centenary Hall no later than 8:30am wearing their summer uniform minus black cap. Following Prize Giving we invite parents and students to join Wyvern staff for morning tea in the AJ courtyard area at the very end of the driveway.
Whilst we take the opportunity to award a number of prizes for outstanding achievement (categories listed below), Prize Giving is primarily an opportunity for the Wyvern community to mark and celebrate a most positive year. As such, this event is a compulsory activity for all students in Years 3-6. Families with students in K-2 are most welcome to attend. The end of the ceremony marks the official start of the summer break.
