Year 13 Leavers' Service
Year 13 Leavers’ Service
On the 22nd May, our Year 13 students celebrated their Leavers’ Service in Thornleigh’s Chapel - a special afternoon filled with memories, laughter and reflection.
Heartfelt speeches were shared by both students and staff, including Headteacher Mr Fitzsimons and Sixth Form Director Mr Wilson, Ms Hulme and Ms Ogden, celebrating everything this amazing year group has achieved. The Sixth Form band kept the atmosphere lively with some fantastic performances, before a series of fun awards brought plenty of smiles and laughter.
Following a service led by Father Steven, students gathered on the lawn for refreshments, photos and one last chance to make memories with friends and teachers before exams come to an end.
We wish all of our Year 13s the very best for the rest of their exams and look forward to welcoming them back in August for results day. We are incredibly proud of the respectful, hardworking young people they have become, and we know they have bright futures ahead of them.
