In celebrating the end of the school year, our Year 7-9 students will participate in a range of ‘Embrace’ activities and challenges. Embrace Kids is an uplifting film by Taryn Brumfitt that brings together a vibrant collection of stories from young people and famous friends alike, who share their experiences of body image, bullying, representation and more. The film aims to improve the body image of young people. After watching the film on Monday morning, students have selected their activities for our ‘Embrace Choice’ sessions ranging from macrame, print and paint to jeopardy and junkyard arcade games. Following on from Monday’s ‘Embrace Choice’, students have selected their ‘Embrace Challenge’ activity for Tuesday afternoon aiming to push themselves to try something new including escape rooms and boot camp. Students are permitted to wear their sports uniform for both days. School and break times remain the same.

As a part of our community Christmas celebrations, Caritas College enters a float in the Port Augusta Rotary Christmas Pageant. This year, students from Year 3 and 4 will be responsible for the float. Students are to be dropped off at the Yacht Club car park, El Alamein Road at 6:00pm (enter from Tassie Street). The pageant will begin at 6:30pm and is expected to go for approximately one hour. At the conclusion of the pageant students are asked to remain with their teacher until parents pick them up from the old Yacht Club (The Aquatics Centre).

Planning for 2025 is well underway. For those students who will not be continuing with us next year, we kindly ask parents/guardians to notify the school by clicking here to complete a Notification of Student Leaving Form. Please return the form to the front office or via info@cc.catholic.edu.au.
For planning purposes, we would appreciate knowing this information as soon as possible.
A number of students will be transitioning into middle school next year and will be participating in two days of planned activities to assist with this process. On Monday and Tuesday they will be joined by new students to Caritas College for 2025.
They are asked to wear PE uniform on both days and will have a BBQ lunch provided on Tuesday. Please refer to the letter for more information.
In 2025, students who have indicated a Trade pathway may attend TAFE in week blocks throughout Semesters 1 and 2 (equivalent to 10 week blocks). A week block means that students attend TAFE during these weeks, or 1 day per week for 40 weeks throughout semester 1 and 2.
Students who enter a trade pathway (e.g. Electrical / Construction / Mechanical / Engineering) are required to wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at TAFE and during their work placements. Please refer to the attached document for further information.
We are excited to inform you that your child has been an active member of our Caritas choir this year, and the time has come for them to shine at the following live events.
