An inspiring Reconciliation Week filled with learning, creativity and connection 💛💬🎨

Our students marked Reconciliation Week through a Reconciliation Quiz, a First Nations film and stunning pastel artworks inspired by totems and nature.
Proudly led by our incredible FIRE Carriers, thank you for creating such powerful moments of connection and understanding.

We’re so proud of our FIRE Carriers and Reconciliation Leader, Alana, who represented our community at the Nillumbik Council Flag Raising Ceremony.

Her heartfelt and powerful speech made it a truly meaningful moment of reflection and connection 💛❤️🖤

A special experience for our students too, deepening their understanding of reconciliation and community.

Movement, Music & Confidence 💃✨
At Girls Can Dance, students immersed themselves in choreography, technique, and self‑expression in a supportive and energetic environment. It was a joyful opportunity to build skills, try something new, and move with confidence.
Parents and grandparents were invited to watch and celebrate what the students had learned, making the experience even more memorable. ❤️
We’re so proud of each dancer—everyone left with a smile and a certificate from Mrs Botha, celebrating their effort ! 🌟

A special congratulations to Jamie on an outstanding achievement! Last week, she made her mark in the CGSAV Athletics Carnival, breaking the Year 9 100m record with an incredible time of 12.41 seconds. Not only did she claim the record, but she surpassed the previous benchmark by an impressive 0.11 seconds, an exceptional effort in such a fiercely contested event. This is a remarkable accomplishment and a true testament to Jamie's hard work and talent. Well done, Jamie!

Big ideas, bold voices and plenty of imagination.
At our Girls Can Imagine session, students took part in a creative writing workshop that encouraged storytelling, self‑expression and confidence. A joyful opportunity to play with words, explore ideas and let creativity lead the way.

During National Reconciliation Week, we take time to listen, learn and reflect together. It's a time to engage in meaningful conversations about First Nations histories, cultures and perspectives, and the role we all play in building understanding and respect. Reconciliation is everyone’s responsibility and learning is an important place to start.

Learning, listening and reflecting together 🖤💛❤️
Thank you to Sharon Sowter for sharing their voice at our Reconciliation Assembly and to Mrs Diana Randazzo, Reconciliation Coordinator, for her leadership in bringing this meaningful assembly together.

Students pushed their skills further during a sessional dance class, led by Brooke from The Edge in Eltham. An exciting extra‑curricular opportunity to extend technique, confidence and performance skills.

Best of luck to Olivia playing in the SSAC Golf Championships today at Lonsdale Links. CLC are cheering you on today!

A fantastic day at CGSAV Athletics, with our Athletics Team achieving some outstanding results across the competition.

Congratulations to all students on their individual successes, and a special congratulations to our Juinor Team for placing 4th, the Intermediate Team for finishing 2nd and the Seniors for placing 7th. An excellent effort also saw the entire team place 4th overall for the day.

We are incredibly proud of the way our students represented the College and the support and spirit shown throughout the competition. 🏃🏼‍♀️🏅
