Students, parents, siblings, friends and teachers gathered at the Margaret River Cultural Centre last week for the 2016 Year 12 Valedictory Night.
Graduating students were congratulated on some of their outstanding achievements at the ceremony, where all students received certificates to celebrate 12 years of schooling.
MRSHS alumni Matt Kevill spoke at the ceremony, addressing the young adults and passing on his advice from his experiences after leaving school.
MRSHS media liaison officer Angela McCoy said the school was grateful to Mr Kevill, as well as the local businesses and families who had donated prizes and supported the students throughout the school year.
