boys to push them to victory against more favoured opponents. It was an excellent to finish the year on a high. From a staffing perspective, we had several changes from 2023. First, we welcomed French teacher Maude Turgeon-Leblanc into the House to replace Taryn Randall, who left us at the end of last year. At the end of Term 2, we farewelled Katie Southworth, who had been with Harper House for several years as a Mentor, as she transitioned into her role as Acting Deputy Principal – Teaching and Learning. Our new mathematics teacher, Aldine Vorbeck, who joined us at the start of Term 2 from Rolleston College. Harper has been blessed with highly skilled and empathetic staff, and I look forward to seeing this continue. A huge thank you to the boys, parents, and staff who have all contributed to the year, and I look forward to seeing what challenges 2025 brings. INDIVIDUAL PRIZE WINNERS Many Harper students were awarded prizes throughout the year, recognising their hard work and dedication to life both inside and outside the classroom.
