PSC's 'Inspire' Photo Competition Awards Ceremony in conjunction with Kayell Australia was held on Wednesday, 8 December. The competition was open to all current Year 11 - 12 students, exploring a place, feeling or memory that inspired them during 2021. We were delighted to welcome all our winners, alongside their family and friends, to our South Melbourne campus.
