THESE are all the smiling faces Roma State College's Bec Hutton is going to miss after she leaves.

The head of school for the junior campus said goodbye to hundreds of students, staff and parents on Friday afternoon, after 10 years in the role.

Ms Hutton, who was the foundation HOS after the college was founded in 2006, was brought to tears by some moving tributes from her students, which included a performance of Green Day's Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) - sung without sarcasm.

"They told me during the week they were going to do something to make me cry," she said.

Ms Hutton said the students were not the only ones she would miss as she and her family moved onto a school in Nambour.

"I'll miss the staff collegiality, as well as the community - both the school's and Roma's," she said.

"They've been amazing."
