Last Monday a group of students and staff went to Reaching Out in the Inner West of Melbourne to hand out meals, non-perishable food items, clothing and hygiene items to those in need. Students saw the impact of their efforts in helping others, and the experience served as a powerful reminder of the importance of community outreach and the positive change that can be achieved.

Year 12 students retreated to Rutherford Park and Anglesea last week, where they participated in outdoor team-building activities, sessions on study and social skills as well as a variety of ‘self-management’ activities such as tai chi and yoga. One of the guest speakers, Michelle Newland, is an

Ambassador for the Summer Foundation and it was inspiring for our students to hear Michelle’sstory of resilience.

The Music program at Emmanuel College starts in Year 7, with students learning how to play an instrument for two semesters. Some students have never played an instrument before, some aretrying new ones for the first time and it is great to see everyone enjoying their music class.

It was wonderful to welcome families at St Paul’s Campus, Meet the Principal last week, where visitors heard from College Principal, Dr Janine Biggin and had a campus tour with student leaders.
