Emmaus College, Jimboomba

We are proud to acknowledge Rookzys fine finishes as a Gold Sponsor of our 2026 Confraternity and QISSN teams!

Locally based, Rookzy’s Fine Finishes is a licensed concreting and construction business, delivering high-quality work across residential and commercial projects, including work at Emmaus College.

This year marks their third consecutive year of support, and we are incredibly grateful for their ongoing commitment to our students and sporting programs.

Partnerships like this play a vital role in enabling our teams to compete, grow and represent Emmaus with pride. Thank you to Rookzy’s Fine Finishes for standing with us again in 2026 - your support truly makes a difference.

If you’re looking for high-quality concreting or carpentry work, be sure to get in touch with the team at Rookzys fine finishes for reliable service and exceptional results.

Our Year 8 students recently embraced adventure, challenge and teamwork at Riverlife, Kangaroo Point, as part of their Challenge Day experience. From kayaking along the Brisbane River to abseiling the cliffs, scaling rock walls, bike riding and competing in Laser Tag, the day was filled with energy, courage and connection.

This experience is a powerful extension of our Pastoral Care program, which focuses on developing the whole person - building self-awareness, resilience, emotional regulation and positive relationships. Through activities that push students beyond their comfort zones, they learn to persevere, support one another and reflect on their personal strengths and growth.

Experiences like Challenge Day not only strengthen friendships but also foster confidence, resilience and a growth mindset - skills that empower our students both in and beyond the classroom.

What a fantastic day of learning, laughter and living the Emmaus Way!

We’re proud to acknowledge Cleanstate Commercial Cleaning as a major sponsor of the Emmaus College Confraternity Rugby League and QISSN Netball teams for 2026.

Having supported Emmaus as valued Gold Sponsors over the past two years, Cleanstate have stepped into this lead sponsorship role in 2026 - further strengthening an already meaningful partnership with our College.

As the team behind helping to keep our campus clean and welcoming each day, Cleanstate are an integral part of our community. Their ongoing support reflects a genuine commitment to Emmaus students, sport and the broader College environment.

We are incredibly grateful for their partnership and support of our students as they represent Emmaus with pride, passion and sportsmanship—truly living The Emmaus Way.

💙 Thank you, Cleanstate Commercial Cleaning, for being part of the Emmaus journey.

Recently, a small group of Emmaus students had the incredible opportunity to attend the Australian Student Voice Conference (SVC 2026). They participated in student led sessions, collaborative workshops, and powerful conversations about how students and teachers share decision making.

They’ve come back energised and full of ideas to continue building their agency, strengthen their participation within our school community, and to work alongside staff to create a genuinely collaborative approach to learning. Their goal is clear: to help enact authentic, meaningful change in how education is shaped at Emmaus.

Let’s get behind our Titans Cup Rugby League teams as they take to the field this Monday afternoon!

Our Year 9/10 Boys are making history, competing in Titans Division 1, a first for Emmaus Rugby League, as they take on Southport SHS. Meanwhile, our Opens Boys team will face St James, bringing strong momentum after an outstanding season so far. Leading into the Confraternity Carnival, this team remains undefeated – taking wins in all SECA games as well as their last three Titans Cup matches.

We wish both teams the very best of luck. Your hard work, determination and team spirit are something our whole Emmaus community is proud of. Go Eagles! 🏉💙

There was a strong sense of pride and excitement as our Confraternity Rugby League and QISSN Netball teams were officially presented with their 2026 jerseys earlier this week.

A special thank you to Jonathan from Cleanstate Commercial Cleaners, our major sponsor, who had the honour of presenting the jerseys to our students. We are incredibly grateful for Cleanstate’s generous support in helping our teams represent Emmaus College with pride on and off the court and field.

As our students prepare to compete, these jerseys symbolise more than just a team—they represent commitment, teamwork and the spirit of the Emmaus Way. We wish both teams the very best as they take on their respective carnivals. We can’t wait to cheer you on! 👏

We are incredibly proud to recognise a group of outstanding Year 12 students who have achieved 100% in their Unit 3 assessments - a truly remarkable accomplishment.

This level of academic recognition reflects far more than a result. It represents students who have applied themselves consistently in class, embraced feedback (even when it challenged them), and committed to ongoing preparation through practice, drafts, and disciplined study routines. They have collaborated, persisted, and demonstrated a genuine commitment to growth. Their success is shared with the teachers who guided them and the peers who encouraged them along the way.

Recently, our Year 7 students experienced three incredible days at their Year 7 camp. Centred on the theme ‘Coming Together’ the camp was a wonderful opportunity for students to build connection and belonging within the Emmaus College community.

From team-building and trust challenges to flying fox adventures, rope courses and escape room fun, students stepped outside their comfort zones and supported one another along the way.

Grounded in the Emmaus spirit, students also shared in moments of liturgy, prayer and reflection, strengthening both personal wellbeing and their sense of community.

We are so proud of the way our Year 7 students embraced every opportunity and strengthened connections, and of how they are confidently stepping into their secondary journey at Emmaus College.
