There was so much talent and good will on display at the annual end-of-year Dominic College Year 6-10 Awards ceremony in the Savio Centre on Friday 25 November.
Students and staff, family and friends, plus local community and special guests, witnessed a remarkable group of students congratulated for their academic results, their school and community leadership, their creative talent and their service and big hearts.
This was the final assembly for Year 10 students, whose leaders passed on the symbols of the College to the incoming 2017 captains and vice captains during the proceedings. Year 10s were sent off by their younger peers in style.
Awards were presented to the outstanding students in each subject and year level, plus overall achievement awards, for the best academic achievements in each year level.
