Four students received nominations for SHAPE for their major works in Design and Technology and IT Multimedia

Over 90% of the 2023 cohort received an early entry offer to a university or college course and these diverse offers reflect the varied interests and aspirations of Tara girls, showcasing the range of opportunities pursued across different institutions and disciplines.

While the statistics are impressive, the Year 12 cohort is more important than the numbers. Every student has been known, cared for, well taught and provided with many opportunities in her time at Tara, which have allowed the girls to grow and thrive. I am grateful to the Tara staff, from Early Learning through to Year 12 who have walked with the students and participated in their growth. Thank you to all the staff, in all the varied roles that make “Tara” what it is for each girl. As the girls have completed their final year, thank you especially to Mrs Crawford as Year Coordinator, the Year 12 mentors, Mr Baker, Mr Bonson and Mrs Griffiths in particular, for your leadership and care. My thanks also to Mrs Middlebrook for her strong educational leadership and passion for Tara which has also contributed to these outstanding results.

Congratulations Class of 2023 and God’s richest blessings for you beyond the Tara gates.
