‘I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the entire cohort of the Class of 2024 on completing their academic studies at Ravenswood with commitment, resilience, grit, determination, and collegiality,’ says Principal Mrs Anne Johnstone. ‘They have been inspirational in the way they have empowered and encouraged each other and supported students in younger years to fulfil their potential.

‘I also wish to extend my gratitude to our talented and supportive teaching and non-teaching staff, including our Teaching and Learning Team, Wellbeing Team, Learning Enrichment Team and School Leadership Team. In particular, our Year 12 teachers have been exemplary, displaying patience, knowledge and care to each and every student. Without their skills and commitment, the Class of 2024 would not have been able to flourish in the manner they have throughout the year.’
