THANK YOU & FAREWELL TO OUR SCHOOL COUNCIL PRESIDENT, STEVE PEARCE || We bid a fond farewell to Steve Pearce, who is stepping down from his role as School Council President as his children have now graduated from Beaumaris Secondary College. Steve's unwavering dedication has left an indelible mark on Beaumaris Secondary College and our entire community.
Steve has been a driving force behind Beaumaris Secondary College, having led the campaign to establish the school and ensure high-quality secondary education for our community. Thanks to his vision, advocacy and tireless efforts, the school opened in 2018 and has since grown to nearly 1,000 students, offering a thriving learning environment for all.
As School Council President, Steve—a true champion of public education and community leadership—has played a crucial role in shaping the direction, programs and growth of the college.
We sincerely thank Steve for his outstanding contribution and wish him all the best for the future. His legacy will continue to inspire students, families, and the wider community for years to come.

YEAR 9 STUDENTS EXPLORING THEIR FUTURE || Our Year 9 students are taking part in the My Career Insights program, an initiative by the Department of Education and the Australian Centre for Career Education (ACCE). Completing the Morrisby Profile enables students to discover their strengths, interests, and potential career paths, explore jobs that match their skills and personality, and gain insights into subject choices for their future goals.
Next, they’ll have one-on-one Morrisby interviews with a trained Career Practitioner to discuss their results in more detail. A fantastic opportunity for our students to start thinking about their future careers!
