HEAD

OF

Welcome to the 2016 School year. We extend a warm welcome to the 107 new students and their parents on joining the St Spyridon College family. We have started the Term on a high note, with the Year 7 students showing a refreshing enthusiasm for Senior School. The new Kindergarten class has won our hearts, settling in with their teachers and forming new bonds with their Year 6 buddies. The HSC Class of 2015 made us proud of their achievements, with over 90% of them already having received University placements. We commend our Distinguished Achievers, whose results placed St Spyridon College 62nd in N.S.W. and placed in the top 10% in the State. We congratulate Anja Djukic who achieved First in the State for Serbian Continuers. The first Divine Liturgy and the Blessing of our College was held in our Church on the 4th February. We thank Father Steven Scoutas and Father Sotiri Drapaniotis for their prayers and blessing of our students and school community. This year’s Archdiocese Diary highlights the wisdom of St Gregory the Theologian, one of the greatest teachers of the Greek Orthodox Church. We will use some quotes from the Diary throughout the year.
