A BIG THANKS
Thank you to all students and faculty who contributed to such a wonderful celebration last night under the organisation of Suzie Stanton. Thank you for your time, ideas, food, and presence. Thank you also to their families who support their involvement at UTC.

2011 has been a great year for the College, and we look forward to seeing everyone back next year. For those students who are leaving, we wish you all the very best for the new opportunities that are in store for you.

We'd also like to acknowledge the out-going chairperson, Bec Lindsay, and all the office bearers of the 2011 Student Association. Thank you for your hard work in helping make UTC such a welcoming and fun student community.

Rest well, and take care.

Rosalie Clarke and Keun-Il Ko - 2012 Chairpersons of the Student Association
