It was a fascinating look behind the scenes of film and TV production when Ms Devlin's Year 10 class took part in a film shoot to promote the UNSW School of Economics’ 2026 STEP UP Playconomics Competition. Our College will be offering this opportunity to students in Years 10–12 later this year when the competition opens - especially those studying Commerce and Business Studies - so it was a great preview of what’s to come! One of College Alumnae, Sophie McLaughlin (Year 12, 2025) was the 2024 national winner - finishing in the top 0.5% of students across Australia. A huge thank-you to Mike and Nash from StoryStack for helping bring this together on behalf of the UNSW STEP UP Team and the UNSW Business School – School of Economics (Loretti Isabella Dobrescu and Alberto Motta). What an exciting learning experience for our students!

Today our Year 12 Hospitality students travelled into the Sydney CBD to complete the practical component of their Barista course. This course is designed to put theory into practice, requiring students to confidently: ✔️ Greet customers professionally ✔️ Take accurate orders ✔️ Ask clarifying questions ✔️ Suggest suitable choices based on customer preferences ✔️ Prepare and serve quality espresso coffee Each student had access to their own commercial coffee machine and grinder, giving them authentic, hands-on industry experience. It was fantastic to see them working independently, applying their knowledge, and refining their milk texturing, extraction and presentation skills. Experiences like this strengthen their confidence, build real-world service skills, and prepare them for employment pathways within the hospitality industry. We are incredibly proud of the professionalism and focus they demonstrated today! 👏☕️

This activity is designed to strengthen students’ understanding of how archaeologists and historians use material culture to reconstruct the past and interpret ancient societies. The students enjoyed the experience and recognised the challenge for ancient craftspeople in having to create these items for use in their time.

At Caroline Chisholm College, we’re proud to stand together as students and staff to celebrate International Women's Day 2026 and this year’s theme: Balance the Scales. It’s a powerful reminder that every girl and woman deserves to feel safe, heard, and free to shape her own future. If barriers holding young women back can be built - then together, we can break them down. Next week, we’re marking the occasion with a full calendar of excursions, events and initiatives involving our whole College community. This International Women’s Day is just the beginning. Together, we’re balancing the scales of injustice and shaping a fairer future today, and every day.

A group of our senior students had an awesome day at the Year 12 Fast Forward Conference at Western Sydney University’s Parramatta South campus! The “Beyond Year 12” event was packed with motivating speakers and hands-on workshops that really helped students think about their future study and career options. It was a great chance to get inspired and feel more confident about life after school. Huge thanks to WSU for providing yet another invaluable opportunity to support our students as they prepare for their next chapter!

Today we welcomed back Michael Basan from SEDA Group, along with one of his star graduates (and one of ours!), Georgia Calderwood, for an inspiring Lunch and Learn session that will help our students kick-start their careers through the Dual Diploma Program in Sport and Business. SEDA’s industry-driven qualifications are developed in partnership with leading sporting organisations across Australia, including the Penrith Panthers, Netball NSW, and the Western Sydney Wanderers. Students learned how they can break into this exciting sector, gain knowledge from top industry professionals and explore a wide range of career pathways. They also heard Georgia share her amazing journey - including how her qualifications from SEDA in 2025 helped launch her stellar career with Netball NSW. Thank you Michael and Georgia for spending time with our students today — we always love hosting you at our College!
