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!

Today our Year groups gathered in our College Chapel to celebrate Ash Wednesday through prayerful liturgies, marking the beginning of the Lenten season. Ash Wednesday is a significant day for Catholics as it calls us to pause, reflect and begin our journey towards Easter through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. During these liturgies, students were invited to consider meaningful ways they can prepare their hearts for Easter throughout Lent - by growing in compassion, seeking forgiveness, and supporting those in need. May this season be a time of renewal and reflection for all in our College community.
