Emmanuel College

We always talk about Emmanuel College being a place for everyone, no matter where your talents lay. The next two weeks are a perfect example of that. This week at both campuses we are holding the Year 8 Science Fair, which provides the students with a chance to show off their learning and understanding of scientific concepts as well as demonstrating how to apply their knowledge. This is a very exciting time for the students and staff who have all worked hard towards this event.

We are celebrating different talents next week with the annual ‘Showcase’. This event involves families coming along and viewing their children’s artwork in a gallery format before moving to our auditorium and watching a wonderful showcase of music, singing and dramatic performances. There are always different and exciting ways for students to find their passion and engage with things they love at school here at Emmanuel.

Please note that applications for enrolment for Year 7, 2024 closed last Friday, 19 August, 2022. If you have a child in Grade 5 and wish to be considered for a place at the College for your child in 2024, but have not yet applied, it is essential that you contact the College Registrar by emailing enrolments@ecmelb.catholic.edu.au or calling on 8325 5119 as a matter of urgency.

We hope to see you at one of our tours or our next experience event in November.
