Year 12 Final Assembly

On a clear, fine and sultry morning the Year 12 cohort gathered for the last time as BTC students.Family, friends and the entire College came to celebrate these students. Mrs Jean Mc Cubben(Deputy Chair of the Board) adressed the students and gave a bible reading and prayer.Mr Hewitt wished them all the best in his speech before Roderick Gairo sang "Friends are Forever". It was about this time that the tissues Mrs Everard handed out to the students, started being used.College Captains Bindi-Lee Fox and Taylor Smith gave heartfelt speeches to their graduating class. The students proudly sang the "Go It Blue" College Song before being presented with certificates and gifts from Mrs Cerqui (P&F BTC President)......more tissues needed. It was up to the top verandah of Thornburgh House for the final Blackthorn War Cry and then out through the guard of honour formed by teachers and students. Goodbye and Good Luck to our 2009 Seniors. We will miss you........heaps!
