Last week, the College Interact Club held its annual Changeover Lunch, with the outgoing committee officially handing over leadership to the 2027 executive team:

• Sophia Nichele, President
• Fletcher Griffin, Vice President
• Emily Reynolds, Secretary
• Grace Lawson, Treasurer
• Zoe MacAvoy, Youth Director

It was a pleasure to welcome representatives from the South Toowoomba Rotary Club to the celebration, including President Peter Wenham, Vice President Gary Orth and Youth Director Denis Brown.

Interact has enjoyed another fantastic year, supporting International Women's and Men's Days, raising more than $20,000 for the World's Greatest Shave, hosting its first RSPCA trivia night, which raised $900, and continuing to strengthen connections between our students and the South Toowoomba Rotary Club.

Congratulations to the incoming executive team. We look forward to another year of service, leadership and making a positive impact within the wider community.

🎨 Visual Art Stimulus Excursion

As part of their Visual Art studies, our Year 11 students visited the Vinnies Op Shop and Picnic Point to gather stimulus for their upcoming coursework. Through exploring collections of objects, stories and natural spaces, students immersed themselves in the creative process, discovering ideas that will inspire future artworks.

We look forward to seeing how these moments of observation, curiosity and creativity are transformed into unique artistic works.

This week, our Year 12 School-Based Apprentices and Trainees joined their employers for a special thank-you breakfast hosted by Toowoomba Catholic Schools.

The event celebrated the partnerships between schools and local businesses that help bridge the gap between the classroom and the workplace.

St Joseph's College is proud to have 18 Year 12 students who have completed or are currently undertaking a School-Based Apprenticeship or Traineeship, gaining hands-on experience, industry connections and job-ready qualifications that will see them leave the College not only with an education, but also with a head start on their careers.

It was also fantastic to have 11 of our Hospitality students assisting at the breakfast, putting their skills and professionalism on display.
