Symbolic journey through school

By Margaret Maccoll

The Pengari Steiner School celebrated the graduation of their Year 12 students in their own way.
On Friday the class of 10 students performed a symbolic journey through their school years as they visited each classroom from preschool to Year 11 with their form teacher or guardian Francis Glasspool.
Along the way, each class presented them with gifts and well wishes for their future.
One student said he was “ecstatic” to be leaving while others were “a bit sad” or felt “it hadn’t set in yet”.
The whole class have rented a house at the Gold Coast next week to have a holiday before taking on a mixture of future endeavours after a gap year.
Callum Matthews plans to study at the University of the Sunshine Coast and Sophie Miller aims to move to Melbourne to do an acting course while Sheila Caskey hopes to study stage management after a four-month stint working at Camp America.
Tom Stewart wants to sail superyachts, Jasper Long is “not sure” what he’ll do and Marcus Locke is set to start up an online business called techyboi.com after a six-month trip to China to source suppliers.
