Year 8 Aspire Presentations

Our Year 8 Aspire students have spent some of the last term visiting social enterprises, learning about their purpose and functionality, in order to develop their own concepts. These ideas were presented to the Year 7 Aspire students in Week 10, answering questions about the feasibility of each. 

Well done to all the students who clearly thought incredibly carefully about each of their presentations and worked throughout the term to develop them!

Maribyrnong Youth Sustainability Summit

Some of our Eco Committee members recently participated in the Maribyrnong Youth Sustainability Summit. Below is reflection from our Year 9 CTK Sustainability Captain on how the day went!

"On Wednesday, 10 June, students from the Eco Committee attended the Maribyrnong Youth Sustainability Summit at Footscray Town Hall. Throughout the day, we participated in sustainability workshops facilitated by CERES and learned about important environmental issues in our community. We got to hear about sustainability programs being run by other schools, including initiatives focused on recycling, waste reduction, and environmental awareness. We enjoyed sharing ideas and learning about how we can develop our own environmental leadership. The day left us feeling inspired, informed, and excited to apply what we learned in our own school community."

Congratulations to all the students who participated!

100 Days of VCE and VCE VM

Our Year 11 Students got together last week to celebrate 100 days of VCE/VCE VM with a shared breakfast and show. The students had a wonderful time, joining together to cheer on the magician, enjoy their breakfast and celebrate their achievement of 100 days of VCE and VCE VM!

VET Sport Coaching

Our Year 1 VET Sport, Aquatics and Recreation class recently visited St Lawrence Primary School in Derrimut, assisting with the running of their Athletics Day. 
Our students reported it as being a really worthwhile day, giving them experience in a real-world scenario where they needed to demonstratate competencies in running a sports event. 

We were incredibly proud of how our students conducted themselves during the activity - well done to everyone involved!

Un-limited Concert

Last Friday our students from Year 7, 8, 9 and VET Music came together in the QA to see an incredible performance by a musical group called Un-limited. It was an amazing way for our students to spend their second last Friday for the term, and we were thrilled by how many students really got involved and engaged with the concert - including an impromptu dance party at the end!

Vinnies Winter Sleepout

A highlight of our College's fundraising efforts, the Vinnies Winter Sleepout is a unique opportunity for students to learn about homelessness in Australia. 
Students heard directly from members of St Vincents, as well as completing a number of activities designed to help students understand the difficulties faced by those St Vinnies aims to help.

Activities included trying to design a menu for a fortnights worth of food, based on current catalogues and a budget of $150, a centrelink activity, and exploring truths vs myths about homelessness, as well as fun breaks for dodgeball and drawing activities.

Brennan Fun Run

Our 2026 Brennan Fun Run continued the tradition of coming together as a community honour our late Principal, Robert Breanna, and raising funds for the Smith Family. 

It was a wonderful afternoon that highlighted what makes our community so special, with a real feeling of warmth and togetherness. Thank you to all who contributed or partipcated - if you'd like to make a donation, you can do so here.
