TORRENS PARK CAMPUS<br />
A word from the College Captains<br />
Welcome to <strong>2019</strong>! We cannot wait to<br />
commemorate and celebrate 100 years of<br />
<strong>Scotch</strong> with you.<br />
As a Year 5 visiting various schools around<br />
Adelaide, my parents supposedly let me<br />
choose <strong>Scotch</strong>. My justification was that<br />
people seemed to smile more, yet I know<br />
they saw the benefits of a <strong>Scotch</strong> education<br />
beyond the expressions on the faces of<br />
students and staff. I started in Year 6 and<br />
have had many incredible experiences here<br />
since then. My interests now lay in political<br />
philosophy, international relations and<br />
issues of social justice. Upon graduation<br />
and completion of tertiary studies I<br />
imagine being magnetized towards human<br />
rights, to fulfil my ambition of leaving<br />
the world a better place. I am incredibly<br />
humbled to have been elected as a College<br />
Captain during our centenary year and I am<br />
excited beyond words to serve the school<br />
that has opened so many doors for me and<br />
my peers during my time here.<br />
LALLA NUGENT<br />
College Captain, Douglas House<br />
Over the past three years, <strong>Scotch</strong> College<br />
has been an environment, or rather a<br />
home, which has provided me vast and<br />
numerous opportunities. My journey at<br />
<strong>Scotch</strong> began in Year 10 and from day<br />
one I was welcomed with open arms. Fast<br />
forward to today and I am commencing<br />
Year 12 as a focused, confident and<br />
driven student thanks to my experiences<br />
and relationships at <strong>Scotch</strong>. Following<br />
graduation, I hope to study commerce at<br />
university and eventually pursue a career<br />
in finance or economics. So, it is with<br />
a profound love for the College, and its<br />
students and teachers who have entrusted<br />
me in leading them, that I will serve the<br />
school as a College Captain beside Lalla,<br />
and as Vice Captains, Billie and James<br />
SAMUEL SUBRAMANIAM<br />
College Captain, Stewart House<br />
We are both certain the year ahead will<br />
be a symbolic chapter in <strong>Scotch</strong> history to<br />
be remembered for years to come. During<br />
our time as College Captains we intend on<br />
making the <strong>Scotch</strong> community proud of<br />
that story, whilst continuing to write the<br />
pages for those who follow.<br />
