Hello all members of this community!
Could you please help me with the word choice. I would like to write a sentence: The leaving year has brought us a lot of positive news. And I am unsure about the expression "leaving year". Can I say so? I would appreciate, if you advice me some better variants.
Thank you in advance. Have a great day!

"the outgoing year" is an excellent way to say "уходящий год".
Could you please help me with a word choice. I would like to write this sentence: "The leaving outgoing year has brought us a lot of positive news." But I am unsure about the expression "leaving year". Can I say that? I would appreciate it if you could suggest some better variants.
Thank you in advance. Have a great day!

*or, our graduation** year brought us ..., or, the year we left brought us ... I don't think there is a special word for such a year?
**if you were students.

You can say like this --
The passing year has brought us a lot of positive news

Thank you for your commentary. I see that it's possible to peraphrase but I need to save the structure. And the word current dosn't suit so much

Would depend on what you're trying to say.
Do you mean this current year? 2016?
Because the year hasn't ended yet. You would say ..
There has been a lot of positive news this year.
