Hennessy in Young celebrates its eclectic talents
Debating champs
The Year 9 Hennessy Catholic College debating team has been crowned State Champions after talking their way to top of the Catholic Schools Debating competition, defeating St Scholastica’s College, Glebe, in a nail-biting final. The team, Bridie Minehan, Myka Davis and Annabelle Richens, was supported by talented teachers Mrs Tyrell and Mrs Duff. Debating has always been a strong suit at Hennessy and we congratulate our students and staff on a fine achievement.
Young Pilots Aim High
Hennessy College students Brock Davis and Jonathan Thompson have scored best in the state for a regional paper plane flight test. Brock's design and execution won the ‘time of flight category’ in the Regional High Flyers Challenge and Jonathan was of the Winner of the Regional State Paper Plane ‘distance’ categories. Hennessy encourages all students to spread their wings to pursue their interests and dreams.
Busking flair
Hennessy Catholic College student Harrison Cleverdon has busked his way onto the national stage winning the 2017 Under 18 Australian Busking Championships. The contest attracted a strong field of country and contemporary musicians but the judges were 'awed by his talent' - his instrumental and vocal skills.
