The event was led by Professor Khan, who gave an impassioned speech about the pride that the college takes in its students, and how he and the academic team are excited for them to ‘fly’ onto pastures new. 

The entire academic team attended, and there were two guest speakers: Ruth Farwell, Chair to the Board of Governors for St Patricks, and Professor Marco DeMarco of Uninettuno.
