25.01.2022 Today is about nothing else except celebrating the Graduating Class of 2020. Well done on managing what has been a challenging year. You should be proud of the resilience you have displayed. We are so glad you could come back together to finish off your schooling. Best of luck in the coming weeks for those sitting VCE exams. Enjoy your celebrations and thank you for your positive contribution to Aquinas College. Illuminare et Ardere.

25.01.2022 Thinking of all our students sitting VCE exams in the coming weeks. Sending you positive thoughts. We know you will do your best like you have all year. Good luck.

24.01.2022 All Aquinas students have been shared the information about our Phase 2 of Continuing Learning - ready to commence on Monday morning.

24.01.2022 'Come in your Primary school uniform' day for our Year 12's. My.... how they have grown!

23.01.2022 Our Year 9 students have enjoyed a week of great SEB activities; including Bootcamp, Art, Yoga, 'Roadset', Gardening, Sports challenges, Survivor, Trivia and Yoga. In a year that has been 'different', we are pleased they were able to enjoy a modified version of this important program.

22.01.2022 To all the Dads, Foster Dads, Grand Dads, Step Dads and all the super male role models out there, wishing you a Happy Fathers Day today. Thank you for all you are and for all you do.

20.01.2022 So good to be back today and to have everyone here! I think we now all appreciate the small blessings that life offers everyday - such as going to a place of work or school and being around people. Over the past 12 months we have all learnt to be more resilient through the challenges that COVID-19 has presented. Last week some of our Year 9 students were able to put this to the test as they participated in the 16km 'Challenge Walk'. Perfect weather and positive attitudes resulted in a great experience. Well done to all who took part.

17.01.2022 Same same but different. First day feels all over again. Good to have you back and good to be back.

16.01.2022 Some fun shots from Year 7 camps, the Year 12 dress up day and we have welcomed back our chickens to the coop in 2021!

16.01.2022 It's not long now until the laughter, banter and excitement of 1700 students will once again fill the College with a wonderful energy and spirit. We have missed it. We are very much looking forward to all of our students returning to school next week. The gardens around the College are looking spectacular. We're so fortunate to come to work and school every day to such beautiful surrounds.

16.01.2022 It has been wonderful this week to be able to celebrate some key events. Our Night of Excellence was held on Monday where we celebrated the high achieving students from 2020, including those from the graduating class of 2020. They were acknowledged for their outstanding achievements in the company of their peers and family. We were also finally able to acknowledge the 2020 College Dux, Nick Tellus. Tuesday saw us come together to celebrate our Opening Mass where our 2021 College community was blessed. And at our Opening Assembly we welcomed our College and School Leaders for 2021. Wonderful to finally be able to come together.

15.01.2022 National Day of Action against all forms of Bullying and Violence. Aquinas College actively encourages every day to be the day to step up and speak out to prevent negative social behaviours. Students are engaged in direct conversations, learning tasks and community awareness initiatives. Have a look at our creative art installation- Bullying is never okay. We all need to be the change we want to see in the world!

15.01.2022 We turned the sunshine on this morning to welcome everyone back. So good to have our Aquinas community together again. Smiles all around.

13.01.2022 A massive congratulations to Lucas Clarke who has been recognised in the VCE Premiers Awards for 2019 for his perfect score of 50 in Computing: Informatics. it is extremely difficult to achieve a perfect score and very few students do so. Lucas achieved this while in Year 11 2019. We are very proud of your hard work Lucas and we look forward to sharing this achievement with our Aquinas community. Well done.
