Fun and Friendship at Year 7 Camp
On Wednesday, 14 February, 187 Year 7 students embarked on their inaugural College camp.
The boys had only begun their school journey eight days prior to departure, making their eagerness and readiness to participate commendable.
Over the course of three days, the boys encountered a range of weather conditions while engaging in various activities. During tent setup, the heat was intense, raising a few concerns and requiring a few adjustments. Nonetheless, all students persevered, diligently applying sunscreen and preparing for a packed afternoon of activities.
The activities encompassed Abseiling, Flying Fox, Leap of Faith, Burma Bridge, Raft Building, Stand-Up Paddle Boarding, Slingshot, Canoeing, and Orienteering. Witnessing each student overcome personal challenges with determination was truly inspiring.
The primary goal of this camp was to foster connections and a sense of belonging within their new year group. I encouraged all students to forge new friendships during the three days, hoping they embraced this opportunity. Bringing together 193 students from diverse educational backgrounds marked a heartening start to their high school journey.

Commencement Mass
Be the best you can be
The College Commencement Mass was once again a special day for St Edward's. The students were reverent, respectful and prayerful throughout the ceremony presided over by Father Vince the Parish Priest at Terrigal. Congratulations must go to all our brilliant musicians who performed at Mass. Our musicians were thoroughly prepared by our music staff led by Mrs Rankin and Mr Toole. Their performances added so much to the prayerful atmosphere of the mass.
Father Vince spoke eloquently on this year’s theme “Be the best you can be.” Our College Principal, Mr Bonnici, also spoke about the importance of our College values. All who heard these speakers would understand that the men of St Edward's College are expected to put their best effort into all they do. The students were also encouraged to use their gifts and talents to involve themselves in as many activities as possible.
