Student Achievement
2022 Academic Assembly
23 February
On Monday 21 February Damascus College welcomed back members of the Class of 2021 as we celebrated academic achievement throughout 2021 at the annual Academic Assembly.
It was a wonderful affirmation of the students’ hard work, dedication and perseverance displayed throughout what was another very challenging year - 2021.
Due to COVID-19, the event had limited attendance, and in order to share this wonderful occasion with the whole school cohort, it was recorded and shown at a TA session next week.
Our 2022 College Captains Megan O’Beirne and Lewis Clark were the MC’s for the evening, and we were excited to welcome back our College Dux Mia Lepair as she addressed the audience and shared some beautiful memories of her time at Damascus. She also provided insight as to how she achieves academic excellence.
To entertain the audience, Year 11 student Zeb Nelson performed ‘Arabesque No 1’ by Claude Debussy on the piano.
Congratulations to all award recipients. Below are the award recipients recognised and celebrated.
