Beyond Numbers: Celebrating Outstanding SACE Results and the Stories Behind Them
We are proud to celebrate the release of outstanding SACE results and student success for the Nazareth Class of 2025.
Each student and their family have an individual story to share, and it is these stories that make Nazareth. With a continued focus on thriving people, capable learners and leaders for a world God desires, as a Catholic community, we recognise the uniqueness of each person.
“The class of 2025 are to be congratulated on their commitment to achieving outstanding results in over 39 different SACE subjects with many balancing a wide range of Vocational Education studies, University studies, part time work and broad range of co-curricular pursuits. Our young adult learning environment allows them to thrive, grow and persevere. We thank our outstanding, dedicated educators for providing these expansive learning opportunities and our families for continuing to work with us in close partnership.”
said Deputy Principal – Kidman Park Head of Campus, Nicole Laube.
“We are blessed to live and work in a community where the unique gifts of each young person are developed and inspired. This learning allows them to achieve not only personal success but empowered with the skills, confidence, and dispositions to make a difference to life beyond Nazareth and we look forward to hearing what comes next. The young people of Nazareth Catholic College continue to embrace compassion, unity, and care for one another as we work together to co-create learning and understanding for a more peaceful and inclusive world.
Thank you to the Year 12 class of 2025 and congratulations, we are incredibly proud of your achievements.”
