From the Assistant Principal
ANZAC Day 2026
As a College community in Week 2 we stopped to remember and commemorate ANZAC Day.
It was our honour to welcome Mr Mark Fleming, from the Naval Graves Project, this project is an attempt to preserve the naval history of Australia by researching, locating and tending the graves of those men and women who served in the Naval Forces. The project has records of more than 6,100 men and women in over 400 cemeteries in their archive.
Many of our staff and students have grandparents, mothers, fathers, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters who served or who are serving in Australian Defence forces. Let us remember all those in our community who have lost a loved one through war and we also remember those who currently have loved ones serving in areas of conflict around the world.
I would like to acknowledge Mr Bray and Ms Aldeguer and the History students who prepared the assembly, in particular those students who led the assembly Renee Yuen, Marie-Elise Bedwani, Kendra Castenar, Allison Davis, Gabriella Trunzo, Charlotte Butler, Olivia Princiotta, Isabella Nah, Sophie Murphy, Sienna Vitale, Helena Allshorn, Talia Alacqua, Analisa Hernandez, Ruby Brutto, Luciana Arfi, Ella Grech and Zara Ash. I would also like to acknowledge Katie Mckay, Year 10 who played the Rouse and Last Post.
Giving Back to the Community: The Humpty Dumpty Balmoral Burn on 24 May
At Marist Sisters’ College, we are once again invited to support the Humpty Dumpty Foundation by participating in the Balmoral Burn on 24 May. The Humpty Dumpty Foundation is a children’s charity that has been purchasing essential and often life-saving medical equipment for over 30 years.
This equipment benefits sick and injured children in Pediatric Wards, Neonatal Units, Maternity, and Emergency Departments across Australia, with donations now reaching over 500 metropolitan and rural hospitals. This event is a fantastic opportunity for our students and staff to engage with the broader community.
Sponsorship for the event can be found here.
COMPASS Student Card
It is a College expectation that all students have their COMPASS student ID card with them everyday. The card is used in particular for students to tap in and out of the College for late arrival or early departure and the canteen. I ask for the support of parents in ensuring that your daughter/s have this with them everyday. If students have misplaced or lost their student ID card it is a requirement that the card is replaced. Please see below for how to order a new card online.
