Our 13 Years Girls and 15 Years Boys have done us proud, both finishing as runners-up at the Queensland All Schools Touch Championships on the Gold Coast.

The 13 Years Girls went down 4-3 to Cleveland SHS in a nail-biting grand final after an outstanding carnival, while the 15 Years Boys put up a great fight before falling 6-4 to Southport SHS in their decider.

Well done to both teams on making it all the way to the grand final, and congratulations also to our 13 Years Boys and 15 Years Girls on their efforts throughout the carnival.

Now it's over to our 18 Years Boys and Girls, who head into finals day tomorrow.

Great job, Team TCC. We couldn't be prouder. 💙💚

// CAMPDRAFT TEAM WINS BEST DRESSED //
We're immensely proud of our TCC Campdraft team who were crowned the Allcannon Stockhorses Best Presented Team at the High Schools Percentile Cup held in Pittsworth over the holidays.
Captained by Year 12 Boarder Chloe the team was an absolute stand out and represented with so much evident pride!
Our riders were Georgia, Billie, Emmett, Olivia, Sinclair, Tom, Jane, Ruby, Alice and Chloe.
In further fantastic news, Chloe, who is a passionate Campdrafter was awarded the Girls Encouragement Award. It was a surreal moment for Chloe who dreamt of representing the College in Campdraft at a young age when she first saw the school featured in a Campdraft magazine many years ago.
The Competition attracted 38 schools with over 250 competitors and 460 first round runs.
Campdrafting is sport where riders display horsemanship by selecting and separating a single beast from a mob and then given 40 seconds to guide it around a cloverleaf course at a gallop for a score out of 100.
The team would like to thank their sponsors Ray White Gracemere, Rockhampton Jockey Club and Pat McKenna. A mighty thanks also to all sponsors of the High School Percentile cup and coordinator who made this weekend possible.
Thank you to the incredible parents of the team for carting horses and dedicating time to travel and help the team in all aspects of the weekend.
A big thank you to our AgConnect Coordinator Mrs Sally Compagnoni for all the support in making this weekend possible and to the amazing support of our Team Coordinator Mr Bill Seeney.
Congratulations TCC Campdraft Team 💙💚💙💚👏👏

// QCT TEACHX AWARD WINNER //
We’re thrilled to let you know that one of our own, Miss Grace Griffin has won a highly prestigious teaching award, taking out the The Dr Joe McCorley OAM Outstanding Contribution to School Community QCT TeachX Award.
With approximately 121,846 teachers registered with QCT this is an incredible accomplishment and reflects her excellence and compassion in teaching that extends well beyond the classroom walls.
Although still early in her teaching career, Grace has already become known for the way she creates connection, fosters belonging and opens doors of opportunity for students, staff and families. Whether she is leading service initiatives, strengthening community partnerships, or championing student wellbeing through sport and pastoral experiences, Grace leads with authenticity, courage and heart.
A standout example of Grace’s commitment to social responsibility is her long-standing leadership of the College’s annual “Share the Dignity” staff drive. Since 2018, Grace has coordinated staff contributions to the “It’s In The Bag” campaign, supporting women experiencing homelessness or domestic violence through the donation of essential personal care items.
Grace’s contribution to student life is equally evident in her leadership of girls’ AFL. Working closely with community partners over several years, Grace has helped grow female participation at a critical age when many young people step away from sport.
Grace brings the same dedication to learning and wellbeing through her commitment to evidence-informed practice, including commencing a Master of Educational Neuroscience. She has translated this learning into practical support for families through Middle School Parent Engagement sessions, equipping parents and carers with accessible strategies to understand and support adolescents during a formative stage of development.
Grace shines in her service for others coordinating the annual Sony Camp, a children’s holiday respite program where senior students support children with disabilities while offering families valuable rest time. Through Sony Camp, Grace helps students encounter service in a deeply personal and transformative way — living out the College values of compassion, respect and gratitude through authentic relationships and meaningful contribution.
Grace is a sixth-year teacher who has built strong relational trust with students through formative experiences such as the Year 9 Girls’ Survivor Camp. Her impact was powerfully affirmed when a recent College Captain referenced this experience in her Graduation Mass speech, naming it as pivotal in her personal growth — a moment that speaks volumes about the enduring influence Grace has on young people.
Grace’s recognition through the Dr Joe McCorley OAM Outstanding Contribution to School Community Award is a celebration of the very best of Catholic education: educators who shape hearts as well as minds, and who help young people and communities flourish.
Grace, thank you for the way you reflect the spirit of our College and bring our motto to life — “Come live life in all its fullness” (John 10:10) — through service, leadership and joy-filled commitment to others.
Thank you for your Outstanding contribution to our School Community. 👏👏🏼👏🏾👏🏿 💙💚💙💚
