Corpus Christi College Maroubra

✨ Follow the yellow brick road back to the Emerald City! 🌪️👠

There’s truly no place like home, but earlier this week, the Juniors Kingsford was transformed into a world of pure magic!

Now that the curtains have closed on our first-ever combined high school musical, The Wizard of Oz, we want to take a look back at the incredible display of acting, singing, and dancing from our phenomenally talented cast and crew.

Sydney Catholic Schools captured these spectacular moments on stage, highlighting the months of dedication, courage, brains, and heart our students poured into this production.

Swipe through to see our stars shine, and join us in giving one final, massive round of applause to everyone involved! 👏

“Not me, but God.” – St Carlo Acutis ✨🕊️

As part of the spiritual lead-up to the International Eucharistic Congress 2028, the Archdiocese is hosting a historic event at St Mary’s Cathedral next week. All students, staff, and families are warmly invited to attend:

🗓 Mass & Reception of the Relic of St Carlo Acutis
📍 St Mary’s Cathedral, Sydney
📅 Thursday 25 June 2026 at 5:30pm

The Mass will be celebrated by Archbishop Anthony Fisher OP. Following the service, Monsignor Anthony Figueiredo (visiting from Assisi) will lead a time of catechesis, followed by an opportunity for veneration and personal prayer before the relic.

The Cathedral will remain open until 9:00pm before the relic begins an official national tour across Australia.

⚠️ Note: A large attendance is expected. Please arrive early to secure seating!

Week 9: Big energy, big events! 🍿🏆

We might be approaching the end of term, but the College calendar remains packed! Here is what’s on this week:

🌱 Wellbeing Week: Focus on staying healthy, active, and connected and ties in with Men’s Health Week for 2026
🎭 Musical Showcase: Break a leg to our amazing cast performing in The Wizard of Oz this Monday and Tuesday night!
🥇 Semi-Finals Time: Best of luck to our rep sport teams playing for a spot in the grand finals this week!

Let’s smash out these final few weeks of term together!

Our Year 11 Visual Arts students have been busy mastering reduction drawing! The class explored how tonal value transforms imagery, using charcoal to create these moody, high-contrast masterpieces.

We are so impressed by their creativity and technique - take a look at some of their brilliant work! 🙌🎨

Yesterday our Year 10 students welcomed guest speakers from the 10:10 Formation Project for an inspiring session on identity, self-worth, and relationships.

Named after John 10:10 ("I came that they may have life and have it to the full"), the program gave students a judgement-free space to dive into St. John Paul II's Theology of the Body. Together, they contrasted the shifting views of social media with the unchanging truth of their dignity as children of God.

🌟 One stage. One night. Sydney's most outstanding student performers.

After 25 days of competition involving more than 11,500 students from 131 schools, the very best have earned their place at the 2026 Sydney Catholic Schools Eisteddfod Showcase.
