School ends forever

About 200 Sunshine Beach State High School Year 12 students attended their final school assembly on Thursday before busing it to Main Beach and bursting into the sea in what has become a joyous tradition for final year students across Noosa.

It was an exciting day for the students who returned to school in the afternoon for a graduation ceremony before attending their school formal at RACV in the evening.

As the students celebrated parents took photos of the occasion and chatted about their children’s plans for the future, beginning with their Schoolie week.

Some had booked holidays overseas to Bali or Fiji, some were heading to the Gold Coast and others were opting for quieter escapes with friends to places like Byron Bay.

Future plans were also mixed with some students having secured places at universities or apprenticeships, some not sure which direction on which to embark and others taking a gap year.
