The Australian Defence Force is one of the world's leading military organisations. They fulfil key defensive roles as well as providing a range of peacetime services.
On Friday 19 March, we welcomed ADF to the College to present to Stage 5 (Year 9 and 10) on the wide range of career and study opportunities available in the defence industry, including engineering, aviation, medicine and health and cyber security pathways.

On the final day of Term 1, students from the School of Connect and the School of Challenge participated in a powerful and prayerful depiction of the Stations of the Cross. This dramatic reflection invited students to walk alongside Jesus—not as spectators, but as pilgrims—opening their hearts to His love and the suffering He endured for our sake. As the Church celebrates the Jubilee of Hope this year, we are reminded that suffering and death are not the end of the story. At Easter, we rejoice in the Resurrection! Jesus’ journey to the cross is one of deep love—transforming suffering into hope, and death into life. ✝️🙏 #GoodFriday #JubileeOfHope #StationsOfTheCross #SantaSophiaFaith
