It’s official, Graduation Season is here! The time in the year when all weather is unpredictable, school time fatigue is at an all-time high, and everyone knows that a bittersweet feeling in the air and a lot of assemblies can be counted on. I always get sad around graduation; another year of friends gone, and one year closer to my inevitable graduation, meaning entry into the “real world”. However, it is also a time for, as is the theme of this Mary Word issue, rebirth, reflection and Year 7 to Year 12 photo comparisons. So, on the subject of fun at graduation, to make your time at Loreto as memorable as possible, I have compiled a list of things to tick off your bucket list: the Loreto Edition. In all seriousness, this is a bit of fun. I would not personally suggest doing most of the things listed, but if you do, send me a photo, remind the people who catch you that I am not responsible for your actions, and please, please, let the doves go.
Capture two white doves
Get professional dove releasing lessons
Have tea with a teacher
Never return library books
Abseil down the front of the GBC
Pretend you have a sprained ankle to get a ride in the maintenance car
Bring a cardboard cutout to the formal
Run through the school singing Cruci at the top of your lungs
Stick memes on every single locker in the school
Dress in mufti and pretend to be a teacher for a day
Take over the gong for a day and have a heart-to-heart with the school
Tell Mr Moran a dad joke
Blast loud notes on a bunch of the instruments
Compete in a long recess dance battle
Choose the long recess music
Bring your pet to school (for a day)
Organise a flash mob on the oval
Dress up with your friends for one of the races in the athletics carnival
Be one of the school or house mascots
Trick your class into thinking you’re in the VRs when you’re actually in the teens
Speak with the languages teachers in a language besides English
Be happy with your school photo (WARNING: this is a high-risk mission which only the best of the best will succeed in)
Win Tutor Group Trivia
Climb through a VR window
Nap in class
Trial a new sport
Put googly eyes on everything
Sing LOUDLY in assemblies and liturgies (because let’s face it, the whole school whispering the words to Cruci is a bit sad)
Lots of love to Year 12, and Happy Graduation Season to you all!
