Mr Paul Edwards
“Digby is widely admired by his peers, teachers and coaches for the way he goes Ms Katie Feutrill
about his business in all settings. He leaves nothing in reserve in every pursuit Mrs Wendy Keene
he undertakes. Digby is a very committed scholar and his academic profile is
impressive. His work ethic and independent approach define him, along with his Mr Trevor Pearse
enthusiasm and co-operative nature. The breadth of his interests and abilities Mr Joseph Zlnay
means he will have a wide array of courses from which he can choose for 2023.
As a school, we strive to have our young men take responsibility for their actions 10 YEARS
and their learning and Digby does this without fail. We are fortunate to have him Mrs Katie Doyle
