Academic Results

Congratulations to La-on Canales Chun who placed 2nd in the NT with an ATAR of 99.75 and our College Dux, Dinev Thotawatta Bandulage who ranked 17th in the NT (Top 20) with an ATAR of 97.8.

College Captains (2024-2025) Keely Hayward and Luke Willcocks as well as Atticus Saladores achieved an ATAR of 90 or above, placing them in the top 10% nationally. In addition 19% of Year 12 students received an ATAR of 80 or above. La-on and Atticus also both achieved an A+ Merit in Physics and Accounting. Our top Indigenous student was Kaitlyn Ruffing and congratulations to the Class of 2025 on 100% NTCET completion.

There were also 64 Year 11 students who have successfully completed one or more Year 12 subjects, and 12 students successfully completed Certificate III subjects.

These outstanding results reflect the commitment of our students, and would not have been possible without the dedication of our teaching staff and the ongoing support of parents, families, friends and the wider college community.
