OLMCBI 209

Welcome back students, staff and parents. We are so excited to start a new school year with you, even with all the different emotions you may be feeling.

As your College Captains for 2026, we want to challenge you (yes, even the parents) to make this your year by following our College theme: 'Whatever you do, do it with all your heart' Colossians 3:23a. Yes, we know it can be difficult, but we truly want our whole school community to do everything with all their heart this year.

We want you to use all of the passion, authenticity, determination, love, courage and compassion you have inside you and give it everything you’ve got. Commit yourself to something. Take responsibility for your mistakes. Forgive and apologise. Give yourself everything you've always deserved; your peace, your growth, your discipline and a life that reflects everything that you've been putting in.

As your College Captains it means putting genuine care into everything we do, leading with empathy, giving our time and energy and always acting in the best interests of you. Because we have decided that we will give this role our whole heart.

Enjoy everything that this year throws at you, the ups and the downs. Leave last year's worries behind you and look at 2026 as a fresh start. We can’t wait to see what you all choose to do this year with your whole hearts; whether it be for yourself, someone else or the school. And we can’t wait to be here to cheer you on with the rest of our school community.

With all our heart,

Aprila D (12 A6) and Hannah K (12 M2)
College Captains
