25.01.2022 CHAC named Trimester 1 2020 Champion College! This result is a combination of the effort from all our students, coaches and staff as well as ongoing parent support and the consistency of all sports. In the inaugural year for Girls Football, CHAC is the Champion Girls Football College! We also came 2nd overall for Girls Tennis, 2nd overall for Cricket, 2nd overall for Boys Volleyball and 4th for Girls Basketball.... During Trimester 1 we entered 51 teams across the 34 competitions, with 460 students involved. CHAC won 11 Premiership teams and 31 of our teams recorded a top three position. This is an amazing outcome for all involved and demonstrates the depth of talent and commitment we have at the College.

24.01.2022 To commemorate ANZAC Day this year, a small service was held at the College. We are very proud of these young men who came to represent the Australian Defence Force Cadets in commemorating the sacrifice of our servicemen and women. #LestWeForget, #ANZACSpirit, #LightUpTheDawn
