2020 College ball
Bunbury Catholic College’s annual Year 12 Ball was held at the South West Italian Club on Saturday 15 February 2020.
With a colour scheme of black and white, students danced the night away in the first Ball since becoming a standalone College again and it was a special and memorable evening for our Class of 2020.
2019 ATAR performance
The results achieved by the 2019 Bunbury Catholic College (BCC) Year 12 cohort were outstanding.
Congratulations to Blake Botica and Om Heble on their inclusion in the ‘99 Club’ for their outstanding achievements, placing them in the top 1% of all ATAR students in Western Australia.
Furthermore, an additional 23 students from Bunbury Catholic College received an ATAR score of 90+, placing them in the top 10% of all ATAR students in WA.
This equates to a quarter of all the students who participated in the ATAR being in the top 10% in the State, which is an exceptional result for our College.

Artistic and creative talent from our Marist campus students was on display when Students in the Spotlight opened on Tuesday 10 September.
The annual exhibition showcases work across all age groups including visual art, media, manual arts, digital technologies and plenty more across the Arts and Technologies learning areas.
Former College student Keely Sheehan, who graduated in 2014, returned as guest speaker for the opening night and spoke about her life and achievements since deciding to pursue a career in the arts.
She is now studying a Masters in Arts Management at RMIT in Melbourne.
Families enjoyed dance and musical performances, food and drinks including coffee prepared by our barista students.
The upper and lower school art and media awards from the exhibition will be judged by Keely and the winners announced at a future College assembly.
