25.01.2022 The excitement is growing around the College as students look forward to the annual P&F Father's Day. There is lots a great gifts for students purchase which range in price from $1 to $5.

24.01.2022 Year 4 are having a fantastic time on camp. Yesterday afternoon one of the highlights was the flying fox, look at those smiles! Now with full tummies from a big breakfast the students are setting out for a walk to the beach. It's sure to be another great day with lots of learning and smiles.

23.01.2022 Today the Year 5s attacked the mud pit course. Even Mrs V and Mr Price got in there to show them how its done. Lots off muddy kids but huge amount of fun. Unfortunately there has been issues with downloading the accompanying photos. We knew you'd love to know the kids are doing great. Thank you for your understanding and we are aiming the photos to be published tomorrow morning.

23.01.2022 Year 10's are having a great time on camp. Today students participated in activities that taught them the importance of planning, communication and not spectating. All students are participating well and being pushed outside their comfort zones.

23.01.2022 Year 7 students have just finished their novel study for English. Some students chose to study the novel, Paper Planes. To finish off the unit there was a fierce paper planes "world championship" held right here on the oval. The winner was Benito with some pretty tough competition. What a great fun way to finish the unit of work.

22.01.2022 Year 4 had a great first day on camp. First stop was the Gympie duck ponds before reaching their destination of Luther Heights where they started their activities. Everyone is having a great time.

22.01.2022 What a great muddy fun first day on Year 5 camp! We apologise for the delay in posting these photos. Enjoy.

20.01.2022 Gravity and force was all the talk at lunch today for some of the Primary students. Miss Wardley, Mrs de Hue and some Year 7 students invited the Primary students to come out and take part in activities to celebrate Science week. Another great way of the Secondary School supporting the Primary. Well done everyone.

20.01.2022 Congratulations to our secondary academic award winners who were presented with their certificates earlier this week. Great work everyone.

20.01.2022 Last week our Adopt-a-cop, Constable Jake visited the College to meet with students. We love having Constable Jake visit to chat the students and wow there's always some interesting questions that pop up. Over the coming months Constable Jake will be dropping in regularly, sometimes he might hang out in the play grounds and other times he might even be a student in class. It's great for students to ask questions in a relaxed environment and gain a greater understanding on a wide variety of topics. Thanks Constable Jake, we look forward to seeing you next time.

19.01.2022 Primary School and in particular, Year 6 is a buzz with excitement in the lead up to tomorrow's pre-market day stalls. Primary students will be able to purchase items that have been designed and produced by the Year 6 students. What a great way to combine subjects like English and Maths in a practical way.

19.01.2022 Year 10 have had a fun final morning after a trust building challenge last night as well as some muddy afternoon. Campers are now on their way home and no doubt will sleep very well tonight.

17.01.2022 For the final morning of Year 5 camp students team work and problem solving skills are being put to the test. Students worked in team to build rafts. Well done everyone.

16.01.2022 Mackenzie House Leader, Pepe Pavey, enjoyed unprecedented success at the recent Hervey Bay Hundy' , an event that is drawing competitors from across the country. Competing in the 50km event, she finished second overall in the Women's event and first in her category. At only fifteen years of age she is destined for future success and St James will be with her all the way. https://fb.watch/1ZA1VIpyZR/

16.01.2022 From the Year 10 Business Class Secondary school, get your delicious avocado mousse for $3 on the 23rd of November during second break at the undercroft! Stock is limited, so hurry!

16.01.2022 Year 10 started camp with a team building activity where they learnt the importance of encouraging each other. They also worked on strong mindset and learnt that if 'You believe you can, you can!'

15.01.2022 As part of their Inquiry unit on Hervey Bay, the Year 2's went on a bus trip with Mayor George. They visited many locations including Polsen Cemetery and the site where Boyle Martin, the first European to arrive in Hervey Bay settled with his wife, Sarah. The tour concluded with a walk along the Esplanade to Seafront Oval where the children enjoyed an ice cream and a game of Soccer which allowed Mayor George to show off his soccer and cartwheel skills. A great day was had by all!

Our Captains were thanked by a passerby, reminding us of the importance of instilling knowledge and understanding in our students to ensure our fallen are never forgotten.

11.01.2022 This morning we came together for a K-12 Worship Service to say our final farewell to the Year 12 class of 2020.

Staff formed a guard of honour and bubbles were released as the Year 12 departed us for the final time, there was many tears in the audience. Goodbye Year 12's, we wish you all the very best.

06.01.2022 A magical evening was had by our Year 12s at their formal with a difference. Students stepped into an enchanted forest where they shared in an evening of love, laughter and reminiscing.

We can't wait to see our new friends return next year.
