Coming Up Week 6 Term Two
National Reconciliation Week
As a Catholic school in the Edmund Rice tradition, we stand in solidarity with First Nations’ People. As a college we commit wholeheartedly – everyday – to reconciliation. National Reconciliation Week provides a lens for us to focus on our Catholic Social Teachings. We recognise the dignity of First Nations’ People and the opportunity to renew our partnerships with them through subsidiarity and participation in the hope of creating an inclusive community. We will celebrate National Reconciliation Week at our next assembly.

Dash for Crash 2026 – Join Us This Sunday
I’m looking forward to seeing everyone bright and early this Sunday from 7am for the annual Dash for Crash fundraiser. Walk or run the 5km, 10 km or 21 km. It’s shaping up to be a beautiful autumn morning, and it’s not too late to get involved!
Registrations closed today at 3pm however, you can support the cause by donating via the link below. There’ll be a BBQ breakfast and a coffee van on site, so come along for a great morning out in support of the ATC Foundation. The Dash for Crash is a special event that celebrates the life of ATC parent Mr Damien McMeniman and raises funds to provide a bursary for a future ATC student who may not otherwise be able to attend the College. There will also be raffle tickets to the fabulous prizes available on the day. Thank you to our generous sponsors!
