Dux Assembly

We were delighted to celebrate our newest YOGs (Class of 2020) at the Dux assembly to those who by their talent, commitment to academic pursuits and by their efforts, achieved outstanding VCE results in the 2020 academic year. 

Carrie Edwards-Britt (YOG 1999) and Year 7

Thanks to Carrie Edwards-Britt (YOG 1999) who spoke to our Year 7 students and gave them an insight into what being a YOG means to her

YOG AGM

Whilst 2020 was a difficult year with reduced social activities, the YOG momentum was maintained, and with the support of the School, a new strategy was developed. We would like to thank all our committee members and YOGs who have contributed to what was a tricky, yet productive year. We were also pleased to be joined by Lauren and Blake, the current YVG School Captains to give their perspective on YOG activities at the meeting after the AGM.

Conversations that Count

Our Year 11 and 12 students were delighted to be joined by YOGs through Conversations that Count, as they shared  their experiences of Uni life, giving some great insight and advice. We would like to thank our YOGs for their openness in sharing their YOG University journey with us; Ben, Brandon, Ella, Eric, Evan, Felicity, Josh, Naomi and Stephanie (YOGs 2020).
