Congratulations to all of these students for their outstanding achievements. We also acknowledged our badged leaders with their traditional Coomera Rivers wooden pen set engraved with their leadership position and name.
After our Year 6 students performed their ‘farewell song’, AOK, the whole school came out to acknowledge our graduates as they took their final walk through the school. It is hoped that when anyone hears this song, they’ll think of the 2021 graduating class. A very special mention must go to Wyatt Scrimgeour who lead the vocals for the song as the lyrics were slightly tweaked to better reflect the cohort.
We wish all our seniors the very best as they now move on to high school. We hope they remember Coomera Rivers fondly and we can’t wait to hear about their future successes.
