A TOTAL of 49 Rosewood State High School students graduated in the presence of their delighted teachers, families and friends on Friday (November 21).

The Class of 2025 also had their turn at experiencing a school tradition where Year 11 students form a guard of honour as the Year 12s leave the school for the last time.

Acting Principal Thomas Richards addressed the students during the ceremony saying, “Remember that life beyond the gates of Rosewood State High School will bring new challenges, but the same strength, resilience, and compassion that carried you through your years here will continue to serve you well.”

He told them to be bold and dream big but remember to be kind and lift others up along the way.

Their years of formal schooling have ended but their responsibilities as young adults remain as they enter the workforce or study towards a degree, diploma or trade.
