2024: another extraordinary Fairholme year
December 13, 2024
The much-awaited ATAR results have been released. The anticipation has been replaced by relief, and, for Fairholme’s senior cohort of 2024, there’s cause for celebration.
This inspiring group of young women have demonstrated the Fairholme way through impressive traits of perseverance, resilience, and positivity – traits that will hold them in good stead long into their diverse and promising futures.
Notably, each 2024 senior finished her year eligible for university entrance as well as a plethora of pathway choices including early entry offers for over one third of the cohort. For others, there has been the nervous focus on a specific ATAR result required to ensure entry into a specific course.
Options look especially promising for the 36% of the ATAR-eligible students who achieved a score in the 90s. Of note too, two students achieved perfect scores in two of their individual subjects – and three students in one of their individual subjects. Additionally, 7.2% of the cohort achieved scores in the 99 range and 24% of the cohort in the 95 and above range.
As a College, we celebrate each and all of our Year 12 graduates – we have appreciated their contributions to the College throughout their schooling, and, importantly, we look to their futures with great optimism.
For this generous and inclusive senior cohort of 2024, we are both proud and grateful.
