When asked to what he attributes his First in Course placement Vasileios is quick to reply: “I credit my teacher who tirelessly worked to ensure that I achieved my highest potential.” Vasileios plans to study teaching in humanities: “ My teachers have inspired me to follow the career path of teaching due to the passion and great effort they have put into teaching me, as well as the profound impact they have had on me,” he continued.
All Saints Grammar’s top ATAR ranking was 96.80 achieved by George Galanos-Stellios of Clemton Park.
There were 15 students listed as 2024 Distinguished Achievers, scoring Band 6 in a subject, across 16 subjects and representing 48 percent of the HSC cohort.
Students achieving an ATAR rank of 90 or above represented 24% of the cohort.

Andrea Mavrommatis of Belmore achieved Band 6 results in Legal Studies and Mathematics Standard 2. Asked if she had any advice for 2025 Year 12 students, Andrea said the key is collaboration, “To collaborate with classmates by sharing notes, essay plans and resources to slim down the work load and to help each other.”
Head of School Elfa Lillis said, “We are delighted for the Class of 2024 and their outstanding achievements. These amazing results tell only part of the story and we should not judge our students by these results alone, but also by the loving, caring and service-oriented adults they have become. We have every confidence that they will transition to the next phase of their lives with self-assurance, hardiness, and creativity, with the courage to face new challenges and defend what is just.”
All Saints Grammar offers a challenging and stimulating academic programme that provides students with a choice of education to cater for different student needs and interests.
