Always a very special occasion, this was the first graduation ceremony to be held after the HSC and only the second to be livestreamed into homes. This year 12 cohort had to deal with two separate lockdowns, including their whole final term, and their ability to adapt to these challenges and continue to move forward was a feature of Mr Johnson's address.
