🎶 Breakfast with a Soundtrack!

College mornings just got a lot more melodic with the launch of Brekkie Cafe!

This new initiative features live sets from our talented student musicians during the Breakfast Canteen, creating a vibrant soundtrack for the start of the day.

Last Friday, Peyton H. kicked off the series with a fantastic debut. Accompanied by Mr Cleverley, Peyton captivated the crowd with a four-song set, including a modern cover of Tate McRae’s 'Nostalgia' and a moving rendition of The Beatles' 'Yesterday'.

There was a wonderful sense of community in the air; a perfect way to showcase the incredible artistic talent here at the College. We can’t wait to see more of our young musicians take the Brekkie Cafe stage soon!

NSW All Schools Triathlon 🏊‍♀️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Huge congratulations to Elsie D. and Billy I. for their incredible performances at the NSW All Schools Triathlon in Sydney recently!

Competing against the best young athletes in the state is no small feat and our students absolutely smashed it:

Elsie D. - 14th Place (Junior Girls 12-14yrs)

Billy I. - 15th Place (Junior Boys 12-14yrs)

With a massive field of 193 competitors across the Junior divisions, finishing in the Top 15 is an incredible achievement for these young triathletes. Well done!

Amazing effort to both 🤩🙌🏼

Celebrating International Women’s Day 💜

The College was a sea of purple this morning as we gathered at the Ezzy Centre for our IWD Breakfast. It was a wonderful opportunity for our female staff and Year 11 and 12 students to connect.

The highlight of the morning was undoubtedly Stella P, who moved the room with both a powerful speech and a beautiful musical performance.

A huge thank you to our Secondary Leaders for organising such an inspiring start to the day. We are proud to stand together for an inclusive and equitable future! 🌍✨

Happy International Women's Day!

🎓 University Showcase 2026

Last Thursday, The Ezzy Centre was buzzing as we hosted our annual University Showcase! It was fantastic to see so many students from Years 10–12 taking proactive steps toward their future careers.

The one hour session provided a unique "one-stop-shop" for students, along with their parents and carers, to engage in meaningful, face-to-face conversations with experts from leading institutions.

Whether you were a Year 10 student just starting to think about subject selection or a Year 12 student narrowing down your early entry applications, we hope the event provided the clarity and inspiration you needed.

🦁 Lions Youth of the Year success!

Four Emmanuel students took to the stage this year against some very high-calibre competition in the Lions Youth of the Year Program.

We are thrilled to announce that Stella P. took home the Public Speaking Award while Tess B. was crowned the Ballina Lions Youth of the Year!

Tess now progresses to the next round in Kingscliff later this month where we know she’ll continue to shine.

We also congratulate Harper A. and Aoife K. who were also acknowledged by the judging panel for their impressive performances throughout.

We are so proud of the resilience these students have shown over the course of this rigorous process - well done to you all!

🏊 Last week, our students headed to the Alstonville Aquatic Centre for the 2026 EAC Secondary Swimming Carnival.

It was a fantastic day of House spirit and competition. From the competitive races to the novelty events, it was great to see everyone getting involved and representing their Houses so well. Massive congratulations to Brockington for taking the title on the day!

Following their strong performances last week, a group of our talented swimmers have qualified to represent the College at the NCIS Secondary Swimming Carnival today. Wishing you all the best of luck; swim fast, have fun and represent our College with pride.

Last week, our Year 9 Marine Science students had the exciting opportunity to visit filmmaker and photographer David Warth in his studio. Students were treated to a preview of the trailer for his latest documentary, 'The Bay – Life on the Edge', which showcases the remarkable natural diversity of the Northern Rivers region.

Students then explored the microworld using David’s impressive collection of microscopes, revealing the hidden life forms that often go unseen. They also examined the specialised photography and diving equipment David uses to capture his stunning underwater footage. David’s deep passion for this region and its ecosystems was inspiring, reinforcing the importance of understanding and protecting the environments we are lucky to live alongside.

This excursion was especially meaningful as David is currently curating some of his local wildlife footage for the College to bring the creatures from our story, 'Emmanuel and the Paperbark Tree', to life.
